Retired NBA guard. Born in Chicago and starred at a Big Ten School in college. First round NBA draft pick. Twice scored over 20ppg. One of the many, many guards compared to Jordan when he first entered the NBA. He played for 7 NBA teams over 15 seasons. Dunk contest participant.

I think Kendall Gill had the Jordan thing coming out of Illinois and he played a long time for lots of teams.

My Nova graduate grandfather would kill me if I missed that haha.

Here's a fun one:

Name the NBA team (name and year) that had the greatest height discrepancy between its tallest and shortest player.

Washington had Bogues and Bol I believe.

Very nice - remember the year?  TP regardless.

I'd be lucky to get the right decade! Age and children have atrophied my memory.

Heh, no worries - 87-88 is the answer; I remember it cause it was the first full season I followed the NBA.

Here's another:

Who holds the record for most consecutive 2000 pt seasons?

No, sir.  Strangely enough, he only had 5 2000+ pt seasons and only 2 in a row (had to look that up)

This player is one of two first overall picks to win sixth man of the year, but the only one to also win Most Improved Player.

Who is the only player to be the MVP of both the NBA All-Star game and the ABA All-Star game?

Nope, the injury season and the comeback season cost him.  He had 11 total 2000+ pt seasons and 7 in a row, which I believe ties him for 3rd alltime.

Dr J is incorrect for my ABA/NBA trivia question.

For the consecutive 2000 points seasons, is it Karl Malone.
