129. Xavier McDaniel
The X-Man was the first player in NCAA history to lead the country in both scoring and rebounding; McDaniel was a stud at Wichita State. His pro career was solid as a forward who used his emotions to his advantage and was as tough as he looked. A legend in Seattle especially after his wonderful cameo in the Grunge movie Singles where during a fantasy sequence, one of the male leads (played by Campbell Scott) fantasized about a locker room interview with McDaniel so that he won’t prematurely ejaculate with the lovely Kyra Sedgwick. McDaniel stops in mid sentence and renders the now infamous line “Steve, Don’t Cum Yet”. That scene alone is enough to get him on this list.
