98. Clifford Robinson
A Power Forward/Center with excellent defensive prowess, Clifford Robinson played in what seemed like a ton of games in the National Basketball Association. Robinson was never a player who was ever considered the best on any of his teams, but was a baller who instantly made a team better on both ends of the court. He had his best years in Portland and was rewarded with the Sixth Man of the Year Award. He did accumulate a lot of solid statistics, but is not likely to enter the Hall anytime soon.
