Just recieved a Vintage Bulls jersey. Early to mid 1980's and the number 2, no name on the back. Been all over the internet looking for who wore number 2 for the Bulls in the early 1980's and came up blank. Anyone know who wore Number 2 for the Bulls in the 1980's????

Who made the jersey? Bulls jerseys from this era had NOBs. They were also screened, and not easy to remove. Early 80s would be Rawlings. I think Norm Van Lier wore #2 in the 70s.

My guess:

858

CHICAGO - 1980: Rory Sparrow #2 of the Chicago Bulls looks to make a play during the 1980 NBA game at Chicago Stadium in Chicago, Illinois.

That's a common problem with dates on Getty pics.

According to the APBR list that BTPH posted and to the Official NBA Basketball Encyclopedia... the earliest Sparrow played with the Bulls was in 1987-88.

Sorry I took a few minutes out of my day to try to help with your question. Have fun with your search, if I were you I'd spend a few dollars on some Chicago Bulls Media Guides.
