Four of the Top Players in School History Are Depicted Here Including Charles Smith, Don Hennon, Billy Knight and Jerome Lane Four of the top players in school history are depicted here including Charles Smith, Don Hennon, Billy Knight and Jerome Lane. Smith, Hennon and Knight are the three Pitt players to have their jerseys retired. All three have found success beyond basketball as Hennon became a medical doctor, Knight serves as General Manager for the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks and Smith, following a productive NBA career, is a successful businessman and chairman of the Charles D. Smith Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing a positive alternative for today’s youth. An NBA veteran, Lane is shown here throwing down his backboard shattering dunk against Providence on Jan. 25, 1988. “Send it in Jerome!” proclaimed ESPN broadcaster Bill Raftery minutes after Lane’s thunderous dunk prompted a 30-minute delay in the game. Pitt went on to claim a 90-56 victory, then went on to capture the 1987-88 Big East regular season title. The game is forever labeled as the “Night the House Came Down.” RECORDS & ACHIEVEMENTS NATIONAL HONORS Charles Smith, H.M., 1987-88 BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME The Sporting News Naismith Memorial Basketball Brandin Knight, 2ndTeam, 2001-02 Hall of Fame Henry Clifford “Doc” Carlson, M.D., Scripps Howard News Service Elected, 1959 Charles Smith, 1st Team, 1987-88 Charley Hyatt, Elected, 1959 USBWA All-America Helms Athletic Foundation Hall of Jerome Lane, 2nd Team, 1987-88 Fame Henry Clifford “Doc” Carlson, M.D. NABC All-America Don Hennon, Inducted, 1970 Don Hennon, 2nd Team, 1957-58 Charley Hyatt Don Hennon, 2nd Team, 1958-59 Billy Knight, 2nd Team, 1973-74 NATIONAL PLAYER OF THE YEAR Jerome Lane, 3rd Team, 1986-87 Charles Smith, 2nd Team, 1987-88 Helms Foundation National Player Aaron Gray, 3rd Team, 2006-07 of the Year Charley Hyatt, 1929-30 Helms Foundation All-America Charley Hyatt, 1927-28 ALL-AMERICA HONORS Sykes Reed, 1927-28 Charley Hyatt, 1929-30 General Awards Don Hennon Don Smith, 1932-33 Charley Hyatt, 1927-28 was inducted Claire Cribbs, 1933-34 Sykes Reed, 1927-28 into the Helms Claire Cribbs, 1934-35 Athletic Charley Hyatt, 1928-29 Don Hennon, 1957-58 Foundation Hall Charley Hyatt, 1929-30 Don Hennon, 1958-59 of Fame in 1970.

Her dedication to the Fund was consistent with her lifetime of tireless commitment to a variety of civic and professional organizations here in New York. She will long be remembered not only as a role model for women involved in the practice of law but also as a forceful advocate for the humane treatment of all animals.

  • NBA Draft Lottery Probabilities
    AMERICAN JOURNAL OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH VOL. 2, NO. 3 (2003) NBA Draft Lottery Probabilities Chad R. Florke and Mark D. Ecker Department of Mathematics University of Northern Iowa Cedar Falls, Iowa 50614-0506 USA Received: November 6, 2003 Accepted: December 1, 2003 ABSTRACT We examine the evolution of the National Basketball Association’s (NBA’s) Draft Lottery by showing how the changes implemented by the Board of Governors have impacted the probabilities of obtaining top picks in the ensuing draft lottery. We explore how these changes have impacted the team with the worst record and also investigate the conditional probabilities of the fourth worst team receiving the third pick. These calculations are conditioned upon two specified teams receiving the first two selections. We show that the probability of the fourth worst team receiving the third pick can be made unconditionally. We calculate the probabilities for the fourth worst team to move up in the draft to receive either the first, second, or third selections, along with its chance of keeping the fourth pick or even dropping in the draft. We find there is a higher chance for the fourth worst team to drop to the fifth, sixth or seventh position than to stay at the fourth position or move up. I. INTRODUCTION the record of finish of the teams, i.e., the number of games won for each team (which a. National Basketball Association (NBA) may also include playoff wins). For example Draft Lottery History and Evolution in football, the team with the worst record (fewest number of wins during the season) In all major professional team will draft first in each round while the best sports, recruiting amateur players from team (the Super Bowl winner) will draft last college, high school, or overseas is vital to in each round.
