Grant Hill
He was a member of two Duke University NCAA basketball champion teams
Hill's basketball career began at Duke University, where he became one of the most decorated players in college basketball history. A two-time NCAA champion and a two-time All-American, Hill was named the 1994 ACC Player of the Year. His versatility, leadership, and skill set made him a standout player for the Duke Blue Devils, and he remains one of the most revered figures in the program's history. After graduating in 1994, Hill was selected third overall in the NBA Draft by the Detroit Pistons, where he quickly established himself as one of the league's brightest stars.
In his early NBA career, Hill was a dominant force, earning seven All-Star selections and five All-NBA honors. He was known for his ability to impact the game in multiple ways, often leading his team in points, rebounds, and assists. Hill's all-around game made him one of the most complete players of his era. However, his career was significantly impacted by a severe ankle injury in 2000, which led to multiple surgeries and forced him to miss significant time, including the entire 2003–04 season. Despite these setbacks, Hill made a remarkable comeback, earning an All-Star selection in 2005 and playing in the Western Conference Finals with the Phoenix Suns in 2010.
After retiring from the NBA in 2013, Hill's influence in the sports world continued to grow. In 2015, he became part of the ownership group that purchased the Atlanta Hawks, and in 2023, he and his wife, Tamia, became part owners of Orlando City SC and Orlando Pride. Hill's post-playing career has been marked by his dedication to sports management and his efforts to promote diversity and inclusion in professional sports. His legacy as both a player and an executive is a testament to his passion for the game and his commitment to excellence.
