Impressive List but Only the Top 3 Players have surpassed 20K Points and Five Players are in the 16K Plus Points Arena.

Seven Players from UNC Tar Heels and Dean Smith Coached all of them with Longtime UNC Assistant Bill Gutheridge coaching Carter for One Season 1997-98.

Grant Hill arguably the Greatest Player ever at Duke and the Highest NBA Total of 17K Plus....

Dunc is the Highest ever outside of Jordan and far and away the Greatest Wake Forest Demon Deacon ever to play.

Rick Barry is the Greatest Miami Hurricane ever to lace them up.

Buck Williams might be the Best NBA Player ever out of Maryland and will never know what could've been for the Late Great Len Bias of the Terps.

Starbury is the # NBA Players out of Tech in Points but I would argue to say he was the best Ever out of Tech with the Likes of Chris Bosh, Kenny Anderson, Dennis Scott, and Mark Price, Tom Hammond, and John Salley.

Larry Nance is the best Ever out of Death Valley South Carolina and that includes Tree Rollins and Horace Grant to name a few.

Sam I Am maybe the Best Ever out of FSU Hoops as the Best Athlete on his FSU Team was Point Guard and Heisman Winner Charlie Ward who played for the Knicks for a long time.
