Some things to know about NBA great Jerry West’s life and Hall of Fame career – KTVZ
By The Associated Press
Hall of Famer Jerry West, who died at 86, was nicknamed “Mr. Clutch” because of his late-game heroics and his silhouette is believed to be the basis of the NBA logo. He was enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as a player in 1980 and again as a member of the gold medal-winning 1960 U.S. Olympic Team in 2010. He is scheduled to go in a third time later this year as a contributor for his work as an executive and a consultant. West was consistently one of the top scorers in the league and was at his best in the playoffs. He also had an equally successful career as an NBA executive.
