A Case For The Naismith Hall Of Fame: Bobby Jones
Posted Apr 21, 2018
An All-American and first-team All-ACC in 1974, Bobby Jones was a great college player, but it’s his NBA resume that will get him into the Hall, if he’s to get in. He made five all-star teams (4 NBA, one ABA), was on the All-Defensive team 11 times (8 in the NBA), won the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award in 1983, and played on an NBA champion in 1983.
