My Take
Robert Traylor stays with me as both a basketball memory and a human tragedy. Nicknamed 'Tractor' for his hulking frame, he dominated at Michigan and entered the NBA with fanfare as the sixth pick in 1998. His 4.8-point career average reads modestly, but the steady, unglamorous work of a reserve big man deserves recognition too. Born in Detroit and standing 206 cm, he changed a court's geometry just by being on it. His death from a heart attack in 2011 at only 34 still saddens me deeply. I prefer to remember him not by his stat line but as a presence gone far too soon.
