His best years were in Utah. Adrian Dantley won the scoring title twice, averaged 30+ point per game from 1981-1984, and dazzled with a famous box score - 46 points, 28 free throws, and 9 made field goals.
“I wasn’t really an exceptional high jumper,” Dantley said. “But I was very sound in fundamentals. I can remember in high school - even college and pros - everybody would always go for that pump fake and that head fake, at every level. That was a lot of my success.”
