Congrats to my pops @olskool888 for being nominated to the Naismith Hall of Fame.

Everybody remembers him from White Men Can’t Jump, but go ahead and remember this too... (THREAD)

He was one of MJ’s favorite players. Jordan even had @olskool888 poster hanging in his dorm at UNC

Here’s a closer look at that “Johnson’s Law” poster

He was the first Wooden Award Winner and according to hood legend he was also the first crip to win College Player of the Year

He’s still dunking at 64 years old

He got a few card tricks too

One of the current players he’s been compared to is Jayson Tatum

And yes, he was in White Men Can’t Jump

I almost forgot, he also created the term ‘Point Forward’ too https://twitter.com/uninterrupted/status/1106357127843479552
