Julius Erving - Basketball

Julius Winfield Erving II (Nassau County (New York), February 22, 1950), commonly known by the nickname Dr. J, is a former American basketball player. Erving made a major contribution to modern basketball, where athleticism, leaping, and playing above the rim became increasingly important. Erving was, in 1976, at the moment of the merger with the NBA, the best-known player in the American Basketball Association (ABA). He won, in ABA and NBA combined, three championships and four Most Valuable Player Awards. He led the scoring in three seasons. He did so while playing for the Virginia Squires and the New York Nets in the ABA, and the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA. With 30,026 points (combined NBA and ABA), he is the fifth-highest scorer in professional basketball history. He is the only player to have been named Most Valuable Player in both the ABA and the NBA. In 1996 Erving was honored as one of the 50 greatest NBA players of all time, on a list compiled that year in honor of the NBA’s 50th anniversary. In 1993 he was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Erving was one of the greatest basketball players ever. He was known for his free-throw-line dunk. He was one of the best dunkers of all time. His most famous dunk was the “slam” dunk. Since then, this move has grown into a staple concept in basketball and is regarded by most as a fundamental part of the game. He is also credited with inventing the “cross-over” dribble and the “no-look” pass. This concerns a beautiful custom retro jersey signed in black by Julius Dr. Erving.
