    Love Walt Williams I always boost his stats on NBA 2k because I remember how smooth and a beast he was at Maryland and his early nba years before the injuries a true 5 tool player 1st true point forward. Man he could drive, pull up, pass , rebound, hit the 3, play d he was the whole enchilada! Great video

    "The Wizard" 🧙🏿‍♂️ 😂 Walt Williams was a CERTIFIED BUCKET, Walt wasn't super athletic or fast or quick but he had a smoothness to his game and a pretty good jump-shot, he'd quietly get 18-20 points every night, a solid starter in the NBA

    Loving the content watching from New Zealand would really like some videos about Moses Malone, Arvydas Sabonis, Robert Parish, Dolph Schayes, Zach Randolph, Bob Pettit, Shawn Marion, Michael Beasley, Evan Turner. Keep up the great content!

    7:25 I'm not 100% sure if the streak was 7 or 8 games. The newspaper articles I read from that season said 7, but the Maryland athletics youtube video says 8. But either way, an impressive streak

      I met Bob Lanier at the stay in school jam when he came to my school. I knew who he was because my pops taught me about the history and greats of all sports and life. St. Bonaventure correct? Detroit Pistons? Now did he play with Unseld on the Bullets title team?

    • @ForgottenPlayerProfiles
      @ForgottenPlayerProfiles  6 часов назад
