'Pistol
Pete' to enter Hall Pistol Pete Maravich, college basketball's Division I career scoring leader, was elected to the Basketball Hall of Fame on Thursday. Maravich, who starred at LSU and later played in the National Basketball Association with the Atlanta Hawks, New Orleans-Utah Jazz and Boston Celtics, was elected along with Rick Barry, Walt Frazier, Bob Houbregs and Bobby Wanzer. Frazier, an All-Star guard for the New York Knicks, witnessed two of Maravich's most memorable performances. On Oct. 26, 1975, Maravich scored 45 points in a double-overtime victory by the Jazz over the Knicks. Frazier known for his defensive prowess, was guarding Maravich. On Feb. 25, 1977, Maravich scored 68 points against the Knicks in a 124-107 victory by the Jazz. Houbregs was the 1953 NCAA Player of the Year, and Wanzer was a six-time All-Star with the former Rochester Royals of the NBA. Maravich brought interest in basketball to the South, generally a one-sport (football) region, in the late 1960s at LSU with dazzling ball handling and prolific scoring. Maravich scored 3,667 points-the NCAA Division I record-and had a career average of 44.2 points. He once scored 52 points in a game, but had the audience talking more about an assist. Maravich, on a two-on-one break, hit the outside man for a lay-up with a left-handed (he was right-handed), behind-the-back pass. "My God," cried Carl Stewart, then the coach of predominately black Southern University, "he's one of us!" In Maravich's 86-point performance against the Knicks, he made 26 of 43 field-goal attempts. Scoring 17, 14, 17 and 20 points in each quarter, Maravich fouled out with 1:18 to play on two questionable calls. One basket was erased when it was ruled he stepped out of bounds. A sequence of photographs later showed Maravich was forced out by Butch Beard, meaning New Orleans should have at least retained possession. Then, Maravich fouled out on a hairline charging call while making a field goal. "Another ref," Maravich said wearily, "and it could have been a three-point play." It was the only game Maravich fouled out during the 1976-77 season. Maravich led the NBA in scoring in 1976-77 (31.1) and was a four-time NBA All-Star. The five will be inducted during ceremonies May 5 at the Springfield (Mass.) Civic Center, increasing the Hall of Fame's roster to 161. Nominees must receive 18 votes from a 24-member Honors Committee to be chosen.... |
