What is the least worn number in sports?

The numbers 58, 59, 64, 69, 74, 75, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 87, 95, and 97 have never been worn. There is always a big dropoff from when the ones digit goes from 5 to 6. It only goes down 88 for 5 to 6, but 15 to 16 is a drop of 196 times, 25 to 26 is 156, 35 to 36 is 149, and 45 to 46 is 102.

Stolen from r/baseball and r/hockey.

I was inspired by the posts to do this over here.

COOL FACTS

The most worn number is 12 (380 times). Then it goes 11 (341), 20 (305), 15 (304), and 14 (301). The numbers 58, 59, 64, 69, 74, 75, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 87, 95, and 97 have never been worn. There is always a big dropoff from when the ones digit goes from 5 to 6. It only goes down 88 for 5 to 6, but 15 to 16 is a drop of 196 times, 25 to 26 is 156, 35 to 36 is 149, and 45 to 46 is 102. All of the 60s were worn by guys in the 1950s/60s except for Scot Polard (62 on the Pacers), Coty Clarke (63 on the Celtics), and Scot Polard again (66 on the Celtics). By the way, the Celtics give away a lot of weird numbers. Stay tuned. Once again, most of the 70s numbers (except for 77, which is pretty common) were worn by guys in the 1950s/60s except for Dennis Rodman (70 on the Mavs), Jason Kapono (72 on the 76ers), Dennis Rodman again (73 on the Lakers), and a few guys because of their height (Shawn Bradley was 76 and 7' 6" and on the 76ers). The least worn sub-40 "common number" (not a common number if it's double digit and its ones place is a 6-9) excluding 0/00 is 35 with 166. Once again, fuck Kevin Durant. 31 is a close second with 168 and 13, which also was used less in MLB and NHL, is at 173. Superstitions. The most common number over 50 is 77 by 10 guys, notably Gheorghe Muresan (who was 7' 7") and Vlad Radmanovic. 86 was worn by two players: Semih Erden and Chris Johnson. Both of them wore it as a Celtic in 2011. It's hard to tell which number was the most talented, but it's easy to tell which number was the most crazy: 91. The two players who wore this, Ron Artest and Dennis Rodman, are two of the most insane players to touch a hardwood.

No one has worn 69.

The numbers 03, 07, and 09 have been worn before. 03 has been worn by 3 players and 09 was worn by Bobby Wanzer of the Rochester Royals from 1949-55. In this span of time Wanzer averaged 12/4/3 before changing his number to 9.

Do females have an advantage in sports?

In one study, researchers found that women outperformed men in a key measure of endurance. When pushed to their physical limits, women are able to produce more their power and their maximum torque compared to men after a brief rest.

Endurance: Men vs Women

Did you know women outperform men in certain measures of endurance?

Women’s sports leagues, such as the WNBA or the Women’s World Cup, don’t always draw the same attention as their male counterparts. This has been sometimes blamed on a perception that women aren't as athletically strong as men.

However, exercise research has found that women have significant physical advantages.

In one study, researchers found that women outperformed men in a key measure of endurance. When pushed to their physical limits, women are able to produce more their power and their maximum torque compared to men after a brief rest. In this experiment, researchers had men and women exercise until exhaustion, when their muscles would no longer give no more. After a brief period of rest, researchers then measured how much of their max power and torque each participant could produce. They found that woman recovered more of their maximum power faster than men. Power in this case refers to the ability of a muscle to do work, for example to lift a weight or to push a cart. They found similar results for torque. Women were able to produce far more of their maximum torque after 3 minutes than men. Torque, in this case, refers to the amount of force their muscles could produce.
