My Take
Tom Chambers is, to me, a reminder that the NBA used to feel like flight. At 206 cm out of Ogden, Utah, he played sixteen seasons and won the 1987 All-Star Game MVP, but the numbers undersell him. His soaring, fearless dunks defined an era of pure athletic spectacle, especially in Phoenix. What I appreciate is his durability across six franchises while never fading into the background. He was a scorer who treated the rim like a target. I think of him as one of those players whose highlights still feel weightless decades later, and I genuinely love watching them.
