Adrian Dantley: 1976-77 Rookie of the year


Born: February 28, 1956, Washington D.C, USA.

College: Notre Dame

NBA draft: Selected 6th overall by Buffalo in 1976 draft.

Size: height:6'5 - weight:208lbs

Rookie stats: gp:77 - mpg:36.6 - ppg:20.3 - rpg:7.6 - apg:1.9 - fg%:52.0 - ft%:81.8

Team standing: 30-52 4th (out of 5) in Atlantic division.

Comments: Individually his career was nothing short of a success, with scoring averages of over 30 ppg between 81 and 84. He won the scoring title in 81 and 84, but he missed winning a title when the Pistons traded him to Dallas for Mark Aguirre in their 1989 title season. Or did they win because of his trade?
