Kareem Abdul-Jabbar graduated with a B.A. in History from UCLA in 1969.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's entry into the NBA was timely, as center Bill Russell had just left the Boston Celtics, and Wilt Chamberlain, though still effective, was aging, at almost 35 years.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was awarded his first of six NBA Most Valuable Player Awards, along with his first scoring title (31.7 ppg).
Kareem became an instant force in the league, bringing finesse and agility to the center position, which had previously seen brute force and strength rule.
With the Lakers, Kareem was one of the central figures in ushering in the “Show Time “ era bringing an excitement and style of play that the league had not seen before.
Of all the personal titles and recognition that Kareem has achieved, perhaps his greatest feat, and certainly one that is most closely attributed to him, was becoming the all time NBA scoring leader with 38,387 points.
