Actually, it is.

He’s also the first player in NBA history to wear 83.

I was watching the live stream during media day

He said it is his birth year and that 8+3=11, which is his birth month.

Or...

8+3=11 but Crawford took it from him even tho babbitt had it first.

Didn't Nic want just '8' but Martell was wearing it already?

Think I remember something about that.

Fun fact:

There has never been a player with the number 83 until Craig Smith chose it yesterday.
