The Big Dog was a two-time All-Star who made 568 regular-season appearances for the Bucks from 1994 through 2002, and he retired second in franchise history in points and PPG behind Kareem-Abdul Jabbar. That year, Unseld averaged 7.6 points per game, ceding much of the scoring responsibility to Elvin Hayes and Bob Dandridge. To see how, and to learn how to control cookies, Unseld is the franchise’s most formative figure.

Unseld finished with 13,769 career rebounds, the most for a player 6-8 or shorter, according to ESPN.“I remember (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) made a statement once, ‘When Wes gets into your side, you can’t get him out,’” Hayes said.
As play-by-play commentator Mark Followill explained, the Dallas Mavericks are planning to retire Dirk Nowitzki’s jersey “early” in the 2020-21 NBA season, meaning it could occur before the end of the year. The Boston Celtics will retire Kevin Garnett’s jersey during the 2020-21 NBA season. “That was vintage Wes Unseld – stepping up at the right time,” Hayes said. He led the team to a championship in 1978 and was named NBA Finals MVP. The Los Angeles Clippers won’t please everybody with their choice for the first-ever jersey retirement, whenever that decision is announced, because you can’t please all of the people all of the time.

Moments matter. “We all admired Wes as the pillar of this franchise for so long, but it was his work off the court that will truly leave an impactful legacy and live on through the many people he touched and influenced throughout his life of basketball and beyond,” said Chairman & CEO of Monumental Sports & Entertainment Ted Leonsis. He ranked top-five in rebounding in each of his first seven seasons in the league. It wasn’t until the Memphis Grizzlies traded Marc Gasol to the Toronto Raptors and he helped The North win a first title in franchise history that some casual fans were able to appreciate his all-around brilliance.
