The Lost Great: “He Just Couldn’t Stop” John Lucas’ Stunted Growth Story

Описание: John Lucas, a forgotten great point guard, whom if the Rockets had for the faithful 86 NBA Finals series, may have just went all the way and given Houston its first ever championship. Think of how much that could’ve changed the journey of Lucas as a player, and what that may have meant for his HOF chances. With as much mentoring talent Lucas has, imagine what influence he could’ve had today with hall of famer before or after his name. But he just couldn’t stop using cocaine. In his early life and career, Lucas was an outstanding athlete, not just basketball, but a dominant tennis player all the way through his 4 years at the University of Maryland, winning two singles championships in 74 and 76, named an all American in the sport and the conferences’ top all around athlete. Doing all this while a 3 time all American in basketball, leading his team in scoring every season except his freshman year. He went on to be the #1 pick in the 1976 NBA Draft over 4 future Hall of Famers, including Dennis Rodman, who was a handful of spots from not even being drafted at all. The Houston Rockets had high hopes for Lucas when they took the point guard over some great bigs and wing players in the draft, hoping with all their scoring, he could come in and be a floor general and keep the guys happy. He played 14 years, and on six teams. Unfortunately, much of the opportunity he blew in the league, because he just couldn’t stop doing cocaine and it led to an underwhelming career that should've easily be Hall Of Fame.
