A 6'5" guard/forward from the Laurinburg Institute and the University of North Carolina, Scott was drafted by the Boston Celtics in 1970 but opted to begin his career with the Virginia Squires of the ABA. During his second season with the Squires, he set the ABA record for highest scoring average in one season (34.6 points per game). However, he became disatisfied with life in the ABA and joined the NBA's Phoenix Suns in 1972. Scott continued his stellar play, representing the Suns in three straight NBA All-Star Games (1973, 1974, and 1975), then returned to the Celtics for the 1975-76 NBA season. Scott would also play for the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets, and he retired in 1980 with 14,837 combined ABA/NBA career points.
