  • Everyone Why He Was a Starter. His Incredible Height Made It Almost
    everyone why he was a starter. His incredible height made it almost impossible for the opposing team to penetrate their defense without getting their shot sent back and his light feet made him just as lethal a defender on the perimeter. Russell was so dominant on the defense that he had been responsible for the institution of new rules in the NCAA. Though Russell was the school’s basketball star, he also participated in track and field events for the school. In 1956 he had even made himself the seventh-best high-jumper in the world. Before his professional career had even begun, Russell had been invited to join the Harlem Globe-Trotters. Russell was upset, however, by the fact that the owner of the Globe-Trotters would only discuss matters with his coach and then communicate to him only with jokes. Because of this, he declined the offer and made himself eligible for the 1956 NBA Draft. Russell would’ve been selected with the number one pick, but the Rochester Royals, who had authority over the number one pick, refused to pay the $25,000(or $243,000 today) signing bonus that Russell had requested. The second pick belonged to the St.Louis Hawks but they had their eyes on the center playing for the Celtics. Though they liked Russell, they agreed to let him go to the Celtics in the draft if they received Ed Macauley and Cliff Hagan in return. Reluctantly, the owner of the Celtics agreed and took Bill with the third pick. The Celtics also drafted his college teammate K.C.

He was relieved of his coaching duties in January 1970, when General Manager Max Williams took over as head coach. JOHN BEASLEY 1968, 1969 & 1970 ABA ALL-STAR John Beasley was the biggest surprise for the Dallas Chaparrals in their inaugural season … in his fi rst year, Beasley averaged 19.7 points per game … he made the ABA All-Star Team each of his fi rst three seasons and was named the MVP of the 1969 All-Star Game … he also garnered All-ABA Second Team honors in 1968 and 1969 … Beasley ranks second in Spurs ABA history in games, points, fi eld goals made and fi eld goals attempted … for his career with the Chaparrals, Beasley averaged 17.9 points and 11.0 rebounds while shooting .494 from the fi eld and .828 from the free throw line. RON BOONE 1968-69 ABA ALL-ROOKIE FIRST TEAM A major bright spot of the Chaparrals’ 1968-69 season was rookie phenom Ron Boone … Boone attracted very little attention during his college career at Idaho State, but that all changed when he got to the pros … Boone fi nished second to Warren Armstrong of Oakland for Rookie of the Year accolades … in his rookie season, Boone averaged 18.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting .434 from the fi eld and .812 from the free throw line.
