Defensive Game
Solid defender who could protect the rim and rebound ferociously. Not a primary defensive anchor but provided credible two-way value at his position during his Braves years.

Robert Allen McAdoo Jr. is an American former professional basketball player and coach. He played 14 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA), where he was a five-time NBA All-Star and named the NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) in 1975. He won two NBA championships in four consecutive trips to the Finals in four years with the Showtime Los Angeles Lakers of the 1980s. In 2000, McAdoo was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. He was named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team in 2021.

Intangibles
North Carolina-calibrated basketball intelligence shaped by Dean Smith — one of the most sophisticated coaching minds of the century. McAdoo's understanding of angles, positioning, and shot selection was exceptional.

McAdoo's 34.5 PPG in 1974-75 remains one of the highest scoring averages in NBA history — a season in which he also won the MVP Award while playing for an expansion franchise that had never reached the Finals.
He played in the NBA for 14 seasons across eight different teams — a journey that required constant adaptation and that produced championships with the Lakers almost a decade after his prime years with Buffalo.
McAdoo was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2000, receiving the recognition his playing career earned even though his most celebrated seasons came on a franchise (the Buffalo Braves/Clippers) that has largely been forgotten.
He later became a successful NBA assistant coach with the Miami Heat, helping coach Dwyane Wade and the 2006 championship team — making him one of a small group of NBA players who won championships both as a player and on a coaching staff.
