Rick Barry III is truly a basketball legend. He played in both the American Basketball Association (ABA) and National Basketball Association (NBA). He was named one of the 50 Greatest Players in history by the NBA, he ranks among the most prolific scorers and all-around players in basketball history and is the only one to lead the NCAA, ABA, and NBA in points per game in a season. Barry also is the only player to reach the 50-point mark in a Game 7 of the playoffs in either league. He is one of only four players to be a part of a championship team in both leagues.
