The Bulls gave Michael Jordan's 'other' number to first-round pick

Former Michigan State star Denzel Valentine will wear Michael Jordan's old number for the Chicago Bulls - the one that isn't retired. Valentine wore the number 45 for the Spartans, and the Bulls revealed Monday that he'll be keeping it for his professional career.

Valentine isn't the first Bull to wear 45 after Jordan, either. Paul Shirley, Luke Schenscher and Rasual Butler all wore the number after 1995, and Jordan was in fact the third Bull to wear 45 (after Scott Lloyd and Ed Nealy).
