Players who played even a single game in the season counts and that includes injured ones.
This is the underrated stats that people mention. And what's good is most on the list I found are Celtics players.
George Mikan - Minneapolis Lakers (7 seasons: 1949-1954, 1956)
Jim Polard - Minneapolis Lakers (7 seasons: 1949-1955)
Frank Ramsey - Boston Celtics (9 seasons: 1955, 1957-1964)
Tommy Heinsohn - Boston Celtics (9 seasons: 1957-1965)
Bill Russell - Boston Celtics (13 seasons: 1957-1969)
Sam Jones - Boston Celtics (12 seasons: 1958-1969)
KC Jones - Boston Celtics (9 seasons: 1959-1967)
Wilt Chamberlain - Philadelphia/San Fransisco Warriors, Philadelphia 76ers, Los Angeles Lakers (13 seasons: 1960-1973)
Elgin Baylor - Minneapolis/Los Angeles Lakers (14 seasons: 1959-1972)
Jerry West - Los Angeles Lakers (14 seasons: 1961-1974)
Julius Erving - Philadelphia 76ers (11 seasons in NBA: 1977-1987)
Larry Bird - Boston Celtics (13 seasons: 1980-1992)
Magic Johnson - Los Angeles Lakers (13 seasons: 1980-1991, 1996)
Sidney Moncrief - Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta Hawks (11 seasons: 1980-1989, 1991)
Kevin McHale - Boston Celtics (13 seasons: 1981-1993)
Clyde Drexler - Portland Trailblazers, Houston Rockets (15 seasons: 1984-1998)
Reggie Lewis - Boston Celtics (6 seasons: 1988-1993)
John Stockton - Utah Jazz (19 seasons: 1985-2003)
Karl Malone - Utah Jazz, Los Angeles Lakers (19 seasons: 1986-2004)
Mario Elie - Golden State Warriors, Portland TrailBlazers, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, Phoenix Suns (11 seasons: 1991-2001)
Robert Horry - Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs (16 seasons: 1993-2008)
Tim Duncan - San Antonio Spurs (19 seasons: 1997-2016)
Glen Davis - Boston Celtics, Orlando Magic, Los Angeles Clippers (9 seasons: 2008-2015)
Among the active players, only these names have the record so far. Players under rookie contracts don't count:
Manu Ginobili - San Antonio Spurs (15 seasons: 2003-)
Tony Parker - San Antonio Spurs (16 seasons: 2002-)
Al Horford - Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics (10 seasons: 2008-)
Patty Mills - San Antonio Spurs (8 seasons: 2010-)
Jeff Teague - Atlanta Hawks, Indiana Pacers (8 seasons: 2010-)
James Harden - OKC Thunder, Houston Rockets (8 seasons: 2010-)
Kawhi Leonard - San Antonio Spurs (6 seasons: 2012-)
Draymond Green - Golden State Warriors (5 seasons: 2013-)
Role player or star, it is pretty impressive that Horford belong in such company.

Danny Green didn't play in the playoffs his first season (the one with Cleveland). I didn't check anyone else, but if the first guy listed is wrong, I suspect some others are as well.

It doesn't matter if he played, he made the playoffs.

At least that's the way I interpret this "fact", considering guys like David Robinson get dinged here for missing the playoffs when he played only 6 games. It's about the team you're on making the playoffs, at least in my interpretation.
But I'd love for you to point out one of these other one's that you suspect are wrong though. ;)

Oh look, Glen Davis mentioned alongside names such as Russell, Wilt, etc.

IKR. His luck is astounding ;D

I am pretty sure Wilt missed the playoffs early in his career.
Edit: Yeah, 62-63 season. His team went 31-49.

Note he is not on this list for that reason!
