    That would be "Fourth Quarter" Frank. Frank Johnson if you want the last name as well, but I'm sure you knew who I meant.

    King James: The last one you posted was a good one, especially since John Wallace and Addison have nearly the same measurements. I kinda knew it wouldn't be Wallace since you said all the games came in the rookie year, but Wallace was the only Syracuse player I can think of that played for the Suns.

    Height: 6'4
    Weight: 209
    College: LSU

    Best season with the Suns: 4.8 points, 2.2 assists, 1.6 rebounds in 79 games

    Other hints: He was extremely hyped coming out of high school and he virtually ruined Goog's career during his stint with the Suns.

    No one wants to take a stab at this?

    Maybe another hint will do: This certain player also has a very oddly shaped head.

    Yep, Livingston is the one to screw over the Suns by colliding with Googs' knee, which is why Googs is hardly utilized anymore. Anyone want to make the next one, or shall I have the honor?

    Wow. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head for this one. Guess I'm gonna have to do some research...

    Well, I'm still stumped. Any other hints, or can someone else figure it out?

    Oh, that's right. I only seem to remember him for two things though. Fainting during the National Anthem, and being one of the bigger busts in NBA history (to me, atleast). Never was great for being a 6th pick.

    Take a stab at making one, AZ.

    Marko Milic. It's actually funny how close that is to Darko Milicic that is. Hopefully, for Darko's sake, their careers don't go the same path.

    New one:

    Height: 6'9
    Weight: 210
    High School: Putnam City (just thought I'd add a little twist with the high school)

    Hints: Was named Rookie of the Year
    Daughter currently plays for USC's undefeated volleyball team

    Ha, I have to admit I did have to look at the Suns' All-Time Roster portion of their website. I was looking down the list of names and as soon as I saw Marko's name it clicked. It's just cheating, just improvising [​IMG] .

    Yep, the correct answer is Alvan Adams.

    Some of those were tough, good ones though [​IMG] How 'bout this one?

    COLLEGE : Auburn
    HEIGHT : 6-6
    HINT : Played 3 seasons in the 90s for the Suns

    Not a lot of clues but it should be enough...

    Wesley Person. One of my favorites when he was with the team, I'd always used him in some NBA game. I think it was NBA Shootout '97.

    Next Player:

    College: UCLA
    Height: 6'6
    Weight: 213

    Other hints: His two year career lasted only with the Suns. Even then, combining the amount of games he played in those two years still doesn't make up a full season.

I think it was NBA Shootout '97.</div>D'oh... I really thought somebody would guess Charles Barkley, both from Auburn, and Chuck's typically listed at 6-6 even though he's 6-4... but he played 4 seasons. Good job!

    No idea about the UCLA guy, I'll go with Don MacLean -- didn't he have a short stint with the Suns?
