Hall of Famer Bill Walton was a 14-year NBA veteran. The #1 draft pick in 1974, he spent his early years with the Portland Trail Blazers, then the Clippers, then the Celtics. Nagging foot injuries eventually forced his retirement.
Walton then embarked on a successful career as a broadcaster.
I met him in 1994 when he wrote a book called Nothing But Net.
So here now, from 1994, just a few months after his induction into the Hall of Fame, Bill Walton.
Bill Walton died of cancer last week. He was 71.
