I loved watching Phi Slamma Jamma, the University of Houston team with Olajuwon, Drexler, Williams, and Michael Young.
I thought Young was a pretty good pick for the Celtics. Instead he was a wasted pick. I was crushed he got cut before the season started, but Red didn’t have the time or space for a rookie that wasn’t ready on a contending team.
Michael Young was selected by the Boston Celtics with the 24th overall pick (1st round) of the 1984 NBA draft. He played in three NBA seasons: 1984–85 with the Phoenix Suns, 1985–86 with the Philadelphia 76ers, and 1989–90 with the Los Angeles Clippers.
He mostly played overseas after getting bounced around the NBA.
