Rick Barry, Walt Frazier and Pete Maravich--three of the most dynamic players of the 1970s--were among five players elected Thursday to the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Bob Houbregs, 1953 NCAA Player of the Year, and Bobby Wanzer, a six-time All-Star with the former Rochester Royals of the NBA, were also chosen.
The five will be inducted during ceremonies May 5 at the Springfield Civic Center.
Barry was a six-time NBA All-Star and led the Golden State Warriors to a league championship in 1975. Frazier starred for 10 seasons with the New York Knicks and is the seventh player from the 1973 Knicks’ championship squad to be elected to the Hall. Maravich rewrote NCAA record books at LSU, and later played 10 seasons in the NBA with Atlanta, New Orleans, Utah and Boston.
