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 third ten of the 2024 Basketball List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 21 to 30:

21. Glen Rice
22. Paul Silas
23. Johnny Kerr
24. Larry Kenon
25. Rasheed Wallace
26. Rudy LaRusso
27. Peja Stojakovic
28. Tyson Chandler
29. Willie Naulls
30. Larry Johnson

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.

Rudy LaRusso came from Dartmouth and would become a standout in the NBA averaging nearly a double-double over his ten NBA seasons. (15.6 Points & 9.4 Rebounds)

Beginning his career with the Minneapolis Lakers in 1959, LaRusso was part of the move westward to Los Angeles, where “Roughhouse” Rudy elevated his game.  LaRusso averaged over 10 Rebounds per Game from 1961-62 to 1963-64, where he was an All-Star in the first two.  An All-Star again in 1966, the defensive specialist was traded to the Detroit Pistons in January of 1967, but LaRusso refused to report and sat out the rest of the season.  His rights were traded to the San Francisco Warriors in the off-season, where he closed his career with back-to-back All-Stars while posting his best scoring numbers with 21.8 and 20.7 Points per Game. respectively.
