Blast From The Past: Bob McAdoo

Though he isn’t ranked among the Top 50 NBA players, Bob McAdoo was one of the league’s best.
As far as scorers and shooters go, McAdoo was one of the league’s greatest. He averaged 22.1 points and 9.4 rebounds (and shot more than 50% during his career) in 14 seasons in the NBA. Equally impressive is that McAdoo is the last NBA player to average 30 points and 15 rebounds in a season. Image that. He accomplished that feat in his second year with the Buffalo Braves (now the Clippers) during the 73-74 season.
The 6-9 McAdoo, a first-round draft choice of the Braves in 1972 out of North Carolina, earned 3 scoring titles in his career. He won 2 rings with the Showtime Lakers in ’82 and 85. A Hall of Famer, McAdoo is an assistant coach with the Miami Heat.
