Name that player!

The "Big O" was the overwhelming selection as the NBA's Rookie of the Year for 1960-61. He was even more brilliant in his first year with the Royals than he had been as a three-time college Player of the Year and All-American with the University of Cincinnati. Quickly establishing himself as one of the gate attractions of the NBA, Oscar became the first rookie guard to score more than 2,000 points. He finished fourth in scoring with 2,165 points and was the leader in assists with 690.



The key man of Kansas State's great team of 1959-60, the young Nebraskan proved to be an outstanding operative in his freshman year for the Royals. Boozer proved to be a ferocious rebounder and a deadly medium range push shot artist. Better than average defensively, the young giant demonstrated a rugged quality on the boards.



Dick is a fine all around athlete. In the spring and summer, he pitches for the Rochester Red Wings and last year posted a good 12-9 mark. On the court he is a sensational defensive operator and scores with classy set shots. In college, Dick had over 17 points per game.

Maurice Stokes
"Big Mo" does everything like a champ. He is the top man in the rebound department, having set the N.F.L. record last season, with 1256 grabs. He's the organizer of the Royals' fast break, is a great passer and can pop the ball in with his fine jump shot from the rim of the circle.
