    Nope. I was wrong about that too. I forgot how old Kevin is.

    No they weren't....everyone forgets that Kevin Willis was playing pro ball in the 1940's.

    Sounds like it'd have to be it.

    Damn it's hard to believe that a guy that was playing in college in 1986 could have a son in the NBA already.

    There were two Serbian and Montenegrians on the 04 Pistons...

    Perhpas that's the first time two international players from the same country won an NBA championship?

    Followed by Rasho and Beno the following year?

    RE: Walker and DA...

    I was just looking at the roster of the 96 Wildcats...

    That freaking team had 9 NBA players on it...

    That's got to be a record in itself.

    From a UK fansite, for what this is worth...

    http://www.bigbluehistory.net/bb/1995-96.html

    This team tied the unofficial record of most players to have made the NBA with nine. [The other teams in question are the '81-82 UCLA Bruins (Mark Eaton, Ralph Jackson, Michael Holton, Darren Daye, Rod Foster, Brad Wright, Stuart Gray, Mike Sanders and Kenny Fields) and the '90-91 North Carolina Tar Heels (Pete Chilcutt, Rick Fox, Hubert Davis, George Lynch, Matt Wenstrom, Eric Montross, Derrick Phelps, Clifford Rozier and Kevin Salvadori)]. Incredibly, the 1946-47 Kentucky squad also had nine players play in the NBA. Below is a listing of the 1996 Kentucky players who made the league.
    Player - Initial Team

    Derek Anderson - Cleveland Cavs
    Tony Delk - Golden State Warriors
    Walter McCarty - New York Knicks
    Ron Mercer - Boston Celtics
    Mark Pope - Indiana Pacers
    Antoine Walker - Boston Celtics
    Nazr Mohammed - Philadelphia 76ers
    Jeff Sheppard - Atlanta Hawks
    Wayne Turner - Boston Celtics

    Here's another one, and it's actually Spurs related:

    How many NBA players have had the last name "Duncan"?

    (Easy to look up, but see if you know before you do.)

    , right, like you ever heard of Andy Duncan (1948-1950).

    But yeah, amazingly, that's the only other Duncan to play in the NBA.

    Well Shoog I knew there was another Duncan, but I must checked what his name was.


    Which fameous center had a brother with whom he was playing in college?
