Graig Hodges set the standard. First you got to get 25 or beat with 26 points in a 3 point contest round. Second, you got to get 22 consecutive points without missing in a round and third if you play in NBA you got to get 3 three point titles or beat with four. And for endurance and consistency you have to add up all points of all the rounds to see your consistency cuz that's real big were curry and bird might come out on top or mark price.
Gtew up on Wentworth building 1105 in the 70s and 80s .Gavin had a hoop squad ! Big boys garlic fries! Chicago Heights in the house! Craig was cold! His boy Herbie coached is at Gavin.
@ PR_23- I most surly do agree with you on this, and as a N.B.A. fan I feel robbed for not being able to watch this man finish out his career. I really do hate how him and Chris Jackson A.K.A. Mahmoud Abdul- Rauf got Black-Balled by the league.
He couldn’t guard me, and I am not good at basketball. He was a liability if he had to play defense. Stop with the blackballed for political views. He only played the last seconds of a quarter to try and put up a three point shot.
Craig wish you the best my brother from Hercules ball with you and raymond back in the day. Still a fan from the park in the heights. ⛹️♂️⛹️♀️⛹️♂️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️🏀🏀
Greatest shooter who was black balled. His opportunity to expand his greatness was cut short. He should still be invited to All Star Weekend competition until his 19 shots in a row record is broken.
I would disagree with the "nobody knows about" part. I remember Craig Hodges back when I was in grade school. I remember him on the Bulls and the year he wasn't signed and was in 3 point shoot out in a generic jersey. He was the favourite player of my classmate. That year he hit 19 in a row, all my friends into basketball knew who he was.
Please change the title to "young know it all, wet behind the ears little scrubs don't know who he is". Everyone that watched ball during that era knows exactly who he is.
Met Craig at Little League park in Harvey, IL... the man is a living legend and was blackballed. He's a hero and inspiration for a ton of people!
i met him too, did you see him miss a shot? i didnt

He for sure was black balled for his political views

Dude no one has forgot Craig Hodges. What made you think people forgot about him. The broadcasters bring it up every single time
Salute too Craig Hodges he was blackballed..
Hodges to me is still the greatest performer in the history of that contest. Period.
Bulls Vs Blazers....
Believes.
He and Mahmoud Abdul - rauf were blackballed by the NBA back in the 90s .
Abdul-rauf likely so. Hodges nope.
Eastgate
White Balled
Hodges hit 21out of 25 attempts. Hodges is the only player that has ever done that.
I know about him.
85th and Loomis.
Beautiful shooting form

@ braviafeed- I agree with you on this too, this man was and still is THEE THREE POINT KING.
If Craig had hit a few game winning or key shots in a game/Playoffs, he'd be more known! Regardless, he was a great snipper/shooter!
His political activism
Wilmawkee
Wimaki
Why didn’t he receive a tryout from any NBA team? Michael Jeffery Jordan.
George Bush..... Michael Jordan could not have done that
Damn u not helping please tell me u didn't say greg hodges
