Number 13 is Wilt the Stilt Chamberlain and number 14 Bob Cousy.

They changed that rule while I was in high school. The last year KHSAA used a number over 5 was 1957. I always said they retired my high school jersey because I wore #66 for my four years of varsity basketball and the school gave it to me at the end of my high school career since the number on the jersey could no longer be used.

That looks like it could be Cliff Hagan behind #11 in the picture.
