David Greenwood passes away at the age of 68 after struggling with cancer NBA icon David Greenwood's struggle with cancer came to a halt recently. When it comes to talking about one of the most talented basketball players from the 1970s, it is difficult to miss out on Greenwood. He was one of the last recruits of popular coach John Wooden. After building a standout career at the Verbum Dei High in Los Angeles, he went on to start his college career at UCLA almost a few months after John Wooden's retirement in 1975. David Greenwood went on to create a record with his hard work and perseverance, as he had earned first-team All-America honors both as a senior and junior after Bill Walton back in 1972. During his stint with the NBA, he has been associated with reputed basketball teams, including the Chicago Bulls, Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons, and San Antonio Spurs. Reportedly, he was signed by the Chicago Bulls when the particular NBA team lost a toss against the Los Angeles Lakers. Instead of David Greenwood, reputed basketball athlete Magic Johnson was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers.

Who is Bennedict Mathurin? College stats, contract and other details
Bennedict Mathurin, the Indiana Pacers guard, just put up a career-defining performance in Game 3 of the 2025 NBA Finals, scoring 27 points off the bench in a 116-107 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. But for those just now discovering the rising Canadian star, let's take a closer look at who he is, where he came from, and why the basketball world should keep watching. ALSO READ| Who is Megan McConnell? TJ McConnell's sister and rising WNBA star Born and raised in Montreal, Mathurin didn't take the typical route to NBA stardom. He was the first Canadian-born player to commit to the NBA Academy Latin America in Mexico City. From there, he made his way to college basketball at the University of Arizona. Now, at Arizona, during his sophomore season (2021–22), Mathurin averaged 17.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. His flickable drives and smooth shooting helped him earn Pac-12 Player of the Year honours and All-American recognition. He led the Wildcats to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, though the run ended earlier than expected. In the 2022 NBA Draft, the Indiana Pacers selected Mathurin sixth overall. Shortly afterwards, he signed a rookie-scale contract, a four-year deal worth over $29 million, with team options for years three and four. On Wednesday night, with a hunger to prove, in the Game 3, with the Finals tied at 1-1, Mathurin came off the bench and erupted for a game-high 27 points. 'Mathurin set the new mark for most points off the bench by a Canadian in an NBA Finals game,' Sportsnet Stats lauded on a X post. The previous record? 24 points by Kelly Olynyk in 2020. Mathurin's 9-of-12 shooting from the field—including 2-of-3 from deep—and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line made for a masterclass in scoring efficiency. ALSO READ| Caitlin Clark, Reggie Miller, Oscar Robertson among those in crowd for Game 3 of NBA Finals After a quiet 5-point showing in Game 1, Mathurin dropped 14 in Game 2 before exploding in Game 3. He's picking up steam at the right time, especially after missing last year's playoff run due to injury. The Pacers' bench outscored the Thunder's 49-18, and Mathurin's fingerprints were all over that margin.
