26. Jagoda Gruszczynska

The good doctor admits to knowing nothing about the beaches of Poland, but if the women all look like Jagoda Gruszczynska I would like to found out! Jagoda (I am too lazy to type out her last name again) is cute as a button, in that Polish girl next door kind of way!

44. Matt Carroll

While Matt Carroll was not one of the most productive players in NBA history (realistically, expansion got him a job with Charlotte), Carroll does have one of the longer tenures (serving two stints) with the franchise. He was known for his work ethic as a player, making the most for what he had and you knew he was never going to make a mistake due to apathy.

10. Cody Zeller

Nicknamed "Big Handsome", Cody Zeller completed his first eight seasons with Charlotte, before signing with Portland as a Free Agent in 2021.

While Zeller will never be confused for a flashy player, he has proven to be certainly capable and is often praised for his unselfishness and dedication to team play. A cerebral player, Zeller rarely makes mistakes and his likability often hides the fact that maybe he hasn't reached the level that should be expected of a fourth overall pick, though he did rove himself as an asset, posting three double-digit years in Points.

He played 467 Games with Charlotte.

49. Primoz Brezec

While the Slovenian seven footer may not have been a huge star in the National Basketball Association, Primoz Brezec did have a couple of decent campaigns with Charlotte where he averaged over 10 Points per Game. A selection in the expansion draft, Brezec enjoyed the most minutes of his career, but beyond his first two seasons as a Bobcat, Brezec didn’t accomplish much else in North American basketball.

50. Eddie Robinson

Eddie Robinson was a very capable backup Small Forward who spent the first half of his brief career with Charlotte. Robinson, who was not a starter often, did showcase some athleticism that allowed him to have a decent career in the NBA, far more than was expected from an undrafted player from Central Oklahoma.

24. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was the Second Overall Pick in 2012, and the NCAA Champion from Kentucky came in with lofty expectations.

MKG had seen a marginal improvement from his rookie season (where he was a Second Team All-Rookie selection), however, a shoulder injury sidelined him for the 2015-16 season. He would return but other than one 10-plus PPG season, Kidd-Gilchrist never achieved the level that the Hornets hoped for. Still, he was a solid player who didn't necessarily have a weak spot in his game but doesn't exactly of a discernable strength. The Hornets waived him in 2019, after 433 Games and an 8.6 PPG.

48. Scott Burrell

In his sophomore season, Scott Burrell would become the starting Point Guard for the Charlotte Hornets and in the process would finish third in balloting for the Most Improved Player in the NBA. Like so many, injuries would take him out of the starting lineup but the Point Guard’s 1994/95 season was decent enough to place him on a list like this, on a team with the limited history of the Charlotte Hornets.

The Basketball HOF List has been revised. Shaq now #1, Yao at #3

It appears that the change is official and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame has reduced the time required to enter the institution after retirement from five years to four.

As such, we here at Notinhalloffame.com looked at those who were eligible in 2017, and found that there were five former players who are worthy of our top 100 and changes were made right from the top.

Allen Iverson was at number one, but the former Point Guard lost that spot to the multi time NBA Champion, and one of the most dominating big men of all-time, Shaquille O’Neal. It is expected, that O’Neal will get in immediately.

Yao Ming will debut at number three, just edging out a former number one, Chris Webber who has now dropped to the fourth spot. Ming had a relatively speaking short NBA career, but he was a five time post season All-NBA selection and almost single handedly raised the game in China to huge proportions.

The three other players who have advanced from the futures to the main Notinhalloffame Basketball list are Peja Stojakovic (#39), Zydrunas Ilgauskas (#57) and Antonio McDyess (#68).

All other Future eligible players have had their sections moved up one year in accordance with the new rules.

If you have not cast a vote for the players on the basketball list, we certainly encourage you to do so and we thank you for all of your support!

Seven times, Bondra would represent his country on the ice, the highlight being taking his team to a shocking upset in the 2002 World Championship over Russia in the Gold Medal Game, a contest in which he scored the game winning goal. He would also be the leading scorer of the tournament. Overall he would average more than a point per game internationally.

Finnish Left Winger, Ville Peltonen, is the fourth and final player selected for the 2016 IIHF Hall of Fame class. Peltonen represented Finland in four Olympics, two World Cups and thirteen World Championships, and played a total of 134 games scoring 107 Points.
