This post only contains three player questions, but it will be very hard. None of these three players are currently NBA players. I will be mesmerized if someone comes up with all 3. Well, here it goes: 1.) I was an undrafted player who played for the Washington Bullets/Wizards sometime between 1980 and 2000. My NBA career was short even though I came from obscurity to claim honors on the NBA All-Rookie Second Team when I was a rookie. That same year I shot (.514) from the field and (.807) from the free-throw line to rank second and third respectively on the Bullets. That same year I finished second on my team in rebounds and also finished second in the NBA rookie rebounding average. I attended college at Coppin State and in my senior year I earned the McClendon Trophy. I also earned the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Player-of-the-Year award twice. Who am I? 2.) I was drafted by an Atlantic Division team in the second round sometime between 1980 and 2000. I attended college at Virginia and was the only player besides Ralph Sampson to collect 1900 points and 900 rebounds in my collegiate career at Virginia. As a senior I was named to all-tourney teams for the ACC Tournament and the Midwest Regional. Who am I? 3.) I was an undrafted player from East Tennessee State who was born in Culpepper, Virginia on November 2, 1968. I missed 74 games my initial NBA season after tearing ligaments in my right knee against Orlando. I played with Brandt-Hagen in Germany in 1991-92 and the Jacksonville Hooters in the USBL in 1991. I led NCAA Division 1 with a .592 three-point-percentage in the 1990-91 season. I finished second in the NCAA in assists (301) and third in steal (109) in my senior season. I finished as the NCAA's all-time leader with a .493 three-point percentage. I received the Francis Pomeroy Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame Award my senior season as the best collegiate player under six feet tall. I am the shortest player ever to play on the team I played for. Who am I? ------------------ [This message has been edited by countingcrow (edited January 04, 2001).] [This message has been edited by countingcrow (edited January 04, 2001).]
1) 2) Junior Burrough 3) * I knew No. 2 myself but had to do research to figure out who number's 1 and 3 were. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Puedlfor (edited January 04, 2001).]
All three answers are correct. Did you have to research them or did you know them off the top of your head? Good Job! ------------------
1. Larry Stewart (Isn't he the guy who was stabbed at his home during a robbery attempt?) ------------------
No cheating here, strictly from memory. He was a really good player in college, very fun to watch. The only other guy that came to mind was Elliot Perry, but I was pretty sure Jennings went to E. Tennessee. ------------------
