Jason Richardson did not choose the number 23 in honor of Michael Jordan. His childhood idol was actually Dominique Wilkins; Richardson simply chose the number 23 because the number he wore in high school, 32, was retired when he arrived at Michigan State. J-Rich says there is no meaning to the number 23, he really just flipped the 3 and 2.

because 3 was his highschool number It's also because of his family nickname(CP3). His dad is CP1, while his brother is CP2 and he is, of course, CP3. It wasn't long 'til people and fans started calling him by this also.

The selection of Chris Paul's jersey number has to do with a connection to his family. His dad was known as CP1 and his brother was CP2, so he wanted to become CP3.
