Jay Vincent 1989 NBA Hoops Basketball Card

(Edited)

Jay Vincent had a really good basketball career in general. He won a National Championship in college, had a nine year NBA career followed by four more years in a pro league in Italy. In the NBA, Vincent averaged a very respectable 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists a game. In this card Vincent is a Sixer but he only played in Philly for seventeen games.

Today is the anniversary of Vincent winning the College National Championship with Magic Johnson this card points out. Vincent played 19 minutes in this game. This Championship is a bit extra special as well because it was Larry Bird vs Magic Johnson!

Here is the game! 46 years ago today.

According to Basketball Reference, Jay had some of the greatest nicknames ever including Big Daddy, Fat Daddy, and Midnight Creeper. That's hilarious and legendary!
