gold star for USAHOF

The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, so this results in a long push to revise what we already have; specifically, now with our Football and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the fifth ten of the 2024 Basketball List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 41 to 50:

41. Otis Thorpe
42. Bob Love
43. Robert Horry
44. Norm Nixon
45. Brad Daugherty
46. Gilbert Arenas
47. Byron Scott
48. Elton Brand
49. Dick Van Arsdale
50. Andrei Kirilenko

Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.

53. Byron Scott

Byron Scott is one of the most heralded shooters and finishers in league history. His run with the great Laker teams of the 80s proved he was a winner. Scott came from Arizona State as he 4th pick overall in the draft and was the perfect piece missing for Showtime. So the Lakers went out and got him. Trading Norm Nixon to the Clippers for Scott before he played a minute Scott was the perfect complement to Magic in the backcourt.
