Bill Walton (1975-1987)
During his playing years, it felt like Bill Walton was busy winning. He was an asset on the UCLA team, as he was in the NBA. He averaged 13.8 defensive rebounds per 48 minutes, which is the highest among all centers in the league’s history. Aside from that, he helped his teammates a lot with an average of 5.8 assists per 48 minutes played. This is the third-best among all the centers in the NBA. In 1978, he brought home the NBA MVP award and bagged two titles. One of them was with the Boston Celtics, while the other was with the Portland Trail Blazers. Sadly, we had to lower the list due to his nagging injuries and turnover issues. Despite this, we cannot deny that he has left an amazing legacy.
