A Star Was Brought To The World
It is safe to say that the year 1974 brought into the world a star. The teenager improved Everett High’s odds of winning with 16 assists, 18 rebounds, and a staggering 36 points. Magic then ended up taking up a spot at Michigan State University after graduating high school. And it was during playing for the Spartans that he began his famous feud with fellow player Larry Bird.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association
The growing tension began in 1979 during the National Collegiate Athletic Association finals with a Spartans triumph over Bird’s Indiana State. However, in 1984 Magic and his rival collaboratively made a commercial for Converse and made up. Ever since then, they have featured together in a documentary and earned the first-ever joint NBA Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019.
