gold star for USAHOF

20. Kendall Gill

Kendall Gill arrived with the Nets late in the 1995/96 season, and he would put up the best scoring numbers of his career the year after, when he averaged 21.8 Points per Game and was the team’s top scorer.  Other scorers were brought in and Gill was able to have a more diverse game, and in 1998/99 he would lead the National Basketball Association is Steals and Steals per Game.  That year, he put up the rare triple-double with 15 Points, 10 Rebounds, and 11 Steals (most are points, rebounds, and assists).  He signed with the Heat as a Free Agent before the 2001/02 season.
Beginning his professional career with the Charlotte Hornets, Kendall Gill was a spectacular dunker who made the First Team NBA All-Rookie Team. Gill would become an effective scorer for Charlotte and, in his sophomore season, would average more than 20 Points per Game. Gill was a balanced player who, for whatever reason, has fallen through the cracks in Charlotte basketball folklore.
