    By "at 19" do you mean Age 19 or pick #19?

    Don't give us the answer to this one for awhile; we shall rise to the challenge.

    Gotta be Willie Burton then because Arvydas never played for another team and Acie Earl couldn't score 40 points against my high school team.

    Congrats to Ottomaton.

    Is he right? Take your time.

    Answer : Acie Earl
    he was drafted by Boston; in expansion draft select him Toronto and he scored 40 points against Boston in old Boston Garden. It was record: noone wasn't scored there against Boston that much. Later Big Country beat Earl and scored 44 points.
