The sport of basketball may incorporate the skills and athleticism of the player when it comes to his on-court performance. However, there are still many different factors that can make a basketball player a legitimate NBA star. Such factors include charisma and the ever-immeasurable “It” factor that a true star exudes. And when it comes to the greatest stars the league has ever seen, they almost always had charisma and the It factor on top of their incredible skills and athletic prowess on the court. During the 1960s, people loved watching Wilt Chamberlain because he was a man who was basically out of this world—a giant among men in terms of his stature, on-court abilities, and personality. The 1970s may have been dominated by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the greatest player of that era, but Pete Maravich, a man known for his flair and showmanship, could put people on the bleachers in droves. Of course, the ‘80s had Magic Johnson, whose infectious smile, penchant for theatrics, and enthusiasm made him one of the biggest stars of that decade. Did you enjoy this excerpt?
