What memorable Ohio HS basketball phenom, whose team only lost one game in his HS career, is the youngest basketball player to be named Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year. An Olympic gold medalist and NBA Rookie of the Year, he was named to the Parade Magazine HS All-American first team two consecutive years. He spent more than 6 years at the beginning of his NBA career in Ohio, but didn’t win a championship until he joined another east coast team which won the championship in his second season with the team, the same season he led the league in triple-doubles. He has five letters in his last name, but IT’S NOT LEBRON JAMES.

STEP 9: So, here’s the narrative: if Bernard King never gets hurt that night in Kansas City … the Knicks don’t react to his injury by trading a 1987 pick swap for Gerald Henderson … Scottie Pippen never gets drafted by the team that acquired the Knicks’ pick in that swap … that team never trades Pippen to Chicago … and the Bulls’ dynasty never happens. (As great at Michael Jordan was, the Bulls don't win a thing without Pippen.) Now, you might think that even if King had never gotten hurt and that pick swap had never happened, the Bulls still would have found a way to trade up from #8 to some other team and gotten Pippen anyway. After all, Bulls’ GM Jerry Krause was very smart … so smart, in fact, that he was also a gifted baseball scout. What fifteen-year major league infielder was signed, originally by the Chicago White Sox, because of a Jerry Krause scouting report?
