Best Player Ever From The State Of Connecticut

[HuskyHawk]

I'm through page 3 and no Marcus Camby? Really? He's a better than a lot of guys mentioned, not including Calvin Murphy.

Edit: finally shows up on page 4. Buy honestly he's better than all the other names listed except Murphy.

Scott Burell.

Earl was the highest scoring player in the country his senior year. His team beat Patrick Ewing's team. He was essentially unstoppable in high school. BE Rookie of the Year. If only Calhoun had arrived one year sooner to get his arms around him, he'd have had a real pro career. Just a great handle, and great range. What a waste...

not much on defense if I remember correctly

Marcus Camby dominate, High school, college and in his NBA prime

Ray Andrade

If high school only I'd probably go
Murphy
Williamson
Luckett
but the best from my school was Sly Williams. His senior year was ridiculous

Add a vote for the Knorr Road flash, Monroe's Mike Gminski; AA at Duke (jersey retired), 1978 NCAA Finals, 15 year NBA career.

Murphy, and it's not close, but as a Monrovian, I can support

Burrell is the only player drafted in the first round by both the MLB and the NBA.

He was recruited as a football player by Miami, Penn State and Notre Dame.

But was he an athlete, @Palatine ?

G-Man went to Masuk, correct?

But was he a playa?

Correct. Go Panthers.

Calvin Murphy - bar none, NO ONE is a close second.

Anthony Harris is Top 10. Why did Calvin Murphy go to such a crappy school if he was such a stud?

Calvin's "studness" did not extend to Academia. There were many a story in the day of then UConn coach Fred Shabel on his knees begging the Admission folks to find a way !!

I played some pick up with Sly even in his 50ties he was an impressive scorer.

Has anyone mentioned Wes Mathews (senior)? Not the best but should be in the discussion.

Bagwell was from Middletown I thought

He went to Xavier but that draws from many towns.
George Springer should be a baseball mention.
