How about Bobby....

Bob Dukiet was a high school All-American at Livingston High.[1] He starred for Bob Cousy at Boston College, graduating cum laude in 1970 with a degree in finance and was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers. As a sophomore for Coach Cousy, Dukiet played in 24 games and shot 55 percent from the field (125-228). Dukiet was the team's second leading scorer with 13.6 points per game and shot 78 percent from the line (77-99) with 68 rebounds and 24 assists. Dukiet held the BC record for best field goal percentage in one game for 14 years. He shot 78 percent (14-18) against Rhode Island on February 13, 1968. The 1967-68 team went 17-8 and lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament to St. Bonaventure. Dukiet missed most of the next season due to a knee injury, while his team went 24-4 and finished second in the 1969 NIT to Temple. He spent most of his senior season recovering from mononucleosis.
