Basketball Hall of Fame misses

Hint

Answer

This power forward was a 3x all-star, ROY, and all-NBAer with the Nets in the 1980s. He has the most career rebounds of anyone not in the HOF... more than Mutombo, Barkley, or Rodman.

This former Sun was a 4x All-Star (including the '86-'87 AS game MVP) and with just over 20,000 career points, he has the most points of any eligible player not in the HOF.

Nicknamed "The Matrix," he was 4-time All-Star and 2x All-NBAer and spent most of his time with the Suns and Mavs, earning a ring with the latter in 2011.

Limited offensively, he was one of the best rebounders and defenders of all time, and finished his career with 5 All-NBA team selections, 4 All-Star games, 4 defensive player of the year awards, and a ring.

Hint

Answer

Longevity kept this perennial 1990s All-Star out of contention. He finished his injury-shortened career with 6 All-Star selections and 3 All-NBA teams, and is still considered one of the most exciting dunkers ever.

This power forward was a 6x All-Star and 5x All-NBAer; he ended his career a bit early with knee problems and no rings. He had a cameo in the 2015 movie "Train Wreck" and is a dual American - Israeli citizen.

No player not in the Hall has more career steals than this 3-time NBA steals champ. At his peak with the Spurs and Bucks, back injuries cut his career short at 12 seasons. He still managed 6 All Defensive teams and the 1985 DPOY award.
