The Bruins celebrated the legacy of Barksdale on the court in Pauley Pavilion before members of his family. UCLA won the contest that night on a buzzer-beating jump shot from Larry Drew II before a crowd of 8,075.

Barksdale enrolled at UCLA in February 1943 and immediately made an impact, playing in five basketball games and averaging 13 points per contest ... World War II limited his UCLA career to five basketball games in 1943, one full season in 1946-47 and one track campaign in 1946-47 ... That season, he led the PCC Southern Division in scoring to become the Bruins’ third All-America selection ... Barksdale helped lead UCLA to its second division championship and first conference playoff ... he entered the NBA in 1951 with the Baltimore Bullets as a 29-year-old seasoned rookie ... Barksdale played four years in the NBA and was among the leagu’es top scorers each season, being named All-NBA in 1953 ..

    PUBLICATION: MyAJC DATE: 4/15/16 Whatever happened to: Tree Rollins By I.J. Rosenberg What he did: Sporting one of the NBA’s best nicknames, former Hawks center Tree Rollins actually picked up his moniker when he was freshman at Crisp County High School in Cordele. “The schools had just been integrated and the black school was closed and we had been moved to the white school,’’ said Rollins of his first year at Crisp in 1969. “We were in front of the school which had been refurbished with new trees and there was this kid we knew and we called him ‘Tiny Man.’ He told me I looked like one of the trees and the nickname just stuck. But everyone had nicknames back then.’’ Wayne Monte Rollins was born in Winter Haven, Fla., before his family moved Cordele, located 65 miles south of Macon. At 6-foot-11 in high school, he was recruited heavily by Auburn, Mercer and Clemson. He was close to signing with Mercer before head coach Dwayne Morrison left for Georgia Tech. Rollins didn’t want to play in Atlanta and signed with Clemson. In four seasons at Clemson, he averaged 11.9 rebounds and 13.3 points a game and would eventually become the first player at the school in any sport to have his number (30) retired. During the summers, he improved his game by playing overseas with the Tigers and was on the 1975 gold medal Pan- American Games team. Just as important, he grew two inches to 7-1 before he was taken 14th overall by the Hawks in the 1977 NBA draft.
