Six NBA players wear #33 heading into the 2026-27 season, one on each of six different teams. The group skews tall and is almost entirely made up of forwards, with just one guard in the mix.

The height range runs from 6'7" up to 6'10", and ages span from 20 to 27. Two players in the group played college ball at UConn before reaching the league.

A Forward-Heavy Group Across Six Teams

Five of the six #33 wearers are forwards, with Liam McNeeley of the Charlotte Hornets the lone guard. Each team carries exactly one player in the number, so there's no overlap anywhere on the roster map. Olivier Sarr of the Cleveland Cavaliers is both the tallest at 6'10" and the oldest at 27, while McNeeley is the youngest at 20.

Jabari Walker (Philadelphia 76ers), Alex Karaban (Sacramento Kings), and Toumani Camara (Portland Trail Blazers) all stand at 6'7", making that the most common height in the group. Malevy Leons of the Golden State Warriors comes in at 6'9".

College Backgrounds and Birthplaces

UConn produced 2 of the 6 players — Karaban and McNeeley — more than any other program. Bradley, Colorado, Dayton, and Kentucky each account for one player. The college backgrounds are otherwise spread across different conferences and regions.

Three players were born in the United States, with birthplaces in California, Massachusetts, and Texas. The other 3 were born outside the country: Sarr in Bordeaux, France; Camara in Brussels, Belgium; and Leons in IJmuiden, Netherlands.

How This Group Compares to Other Jersey Numbers

#33 sits at 6 players for 2026-27, which is a typical count for a single jersey number across the league. The heavy lean toward forwards — 5 of 6 — is notable, though jersey numbers don't predict position in any systematic way. Readers browsing nearby numbers like #32 or #34 will find similarly sized groups spread across the roster.
