Nicknamed “Skywalker” because of his incredible 44-inch vertical leap, David Thompson was a three-time All-American and two-time college player of the year while playing for NC State University in the mid-1970s. He was the first pick of the NBA and ABA drafts in 1975 and signed with the Denver Nuggets. Thompson played in four NBA All-Star games and once scored 73 points in a single regular-season game. In 1996, Thompson was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
