Fat Lever: The Best NBA Point Guard you’ve NEVER HEARD OF | FPP

He’s become one of the most under the radar players in NBA history; one that’s never talked about when it comes to the best 80s point guards, or the greatest stat sheet stuffers in NBA history. Lafayette “Fat” Lever retired with the 5th most triple doubles of all time and had one of the best, yet least talked about 4 year stretches of any player in NBA history. He was an Arizona basketball legend starting at Pueblo High School to spending 4 years with the Arizona State Sun Devils; playing alongside future NBA Players like Alton Lister and Byron Scott. He started in the NBA with the Post Bill Walton Portland Trailblazers and was a promising young player alongside Clyde Drexler. But in the summer of 1984, the Nuggets would trade Kiki Vandeweghe to the Blazers and in return the Blazers received Fat Lever among others. So Lever would spend the next 6 years alongside Alex English as one of the Leaders of the 80s run n gun Denver Nuggets. But as Michael Adams emerged, the Nuggets decided to go in another direction in the early 90s. They would trade Lever to Dallas where he would join forces with Rolando Blackman and Derek Harper. But Chronic knee issues caught up to him, and he could barely stay on the court in Dallas; and when he was on the court, he was not the same player. His career ended quietly in 1994 at the age of 33, and do this day, his career is largely overlooked, which is baffling, as Fat Lever did everything on offense, and was one of the best defenders in the league, as he would even finish top 10 in MVP and Defensive Player of the year voting on multiple occasions, and that’s deserves some recognition. https://www.basketball-reference.com/... https://www.statmuse.com/ Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/genuine-colour/b...
