Mickey Mantle 5

Just like Jerry Lucas's knees betrayed him and prevented him from being the greatest player of all time in the NBA,Mickey's knees were the only thing that prevented him from being the greatest major league baseball player of all time !

YOu are correct about both players BUT Jerry Lucas WAS the BEST HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL PLAYER EVER AND COLLEGE and in total the BEST AMATEUR BASKETBALL PLAYER EVER!!!. I believe the NBA handled him incorrectly by NOT PLAYING HIM AT CENTER...He was the only player other than Chamberlain to average 20 or more points and rebounds in two full seasons and IF A CENTER I belive he would have averaged 20points and rebounds per year for his career. Yes his knees gave out BUT he still was the best at many aspects of basketball at all levels!!!
