“In 49 states it’s just basketball, but this is Indiana” has been repeated more times than bloody mary! From an early age kids that grow up in Indiana have heard the stories of the great hoosier legends from John Wooden, Oscar Roberson and Larry Bird to modern era players such as Damon Bailey, Glenn Robinson and Eric Gordon. We have some of the best high school coaches in the world as well as the largest high school gym. When Damon Bailey played in the state finals his senior year, over 43,000 people attended setting a high school record for attendance that still stands today. College basketball’s most successful coach grew up in Martinsville, In. Rick “the Rocket” Mount was the first high school basketball player ever to grace the front page of Sports Illustrated. The only NBA player to average a triple double was from Indianapolis. Milan’s Bobby Plump’s “last shot” in the championship game inspired the movie Hoosiers.
