Drroogh Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 OK I'm not very good at the answers, but this is still fun. So I guess I'll be resigned to coming up with questions!😜 15 Basketball players won championships at all 3 levels. High School/Prep, College and NBA 3 won multiple championships at each level. Can you name them? Hint two played for coach Wooden. Go figure. Bonus question, name the IU Hoosier on the list of 15! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
