I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout that Bobby Hurley fella, the basketball player. They was wonderin’, did Bobby Hurley play in the NBA? Well, I reckon I heard a thing or two ’bout him in my time.
That Bobby, he was somethin’ else on the court, I tell ya. He played for, uh, what was it, the Sacramento Kings, yeah, that’s it. He got picked by them, way back when. 1993, I think it was. Seventh pick, some folks said. Fancy stuff.

He was a good player, that Bobby. Played for the Kings for a spell. Not just the Kings, though. Also played for that other team, the Vancouver Grizzlies. He was movin’ around, that one.
- Played for the Kings, I reckon.
- Played for them Grizzlies, too.
- Five years in the NBA, folks say.
He wasn’t no giant, but he could sure handle that ball. He wasn’t just in the NBA, Bobby, he played for that Duke team, too. Won some big games, them Duke boys. Some kinda championship things, 1991 and 1992. Big deal, I suppose.
I heard he got hurt though. That’s a shame. Shortened his time playin’, they said. But he still played, even with them hurts. Tough fella, that Bobby. I heard he scored 17 points in some game once. Against Utah, maybe? Sounds ’bout right.
He was born in Jersey City, back in ’71. Long time ago. His mama and daddy, they was named Bob and Christine. Good people, I’m sure.
Bobby Hurley Stats
Now, I ain’t one for them fancy numbers, but I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout his stats. Some average things. Like, 3.8 points, 1.1 rebounds, somethin’ like that. Don’t mean much to me, but I guess it’s important to some folks. Those NBA fellas love their numbers.
After playin’, he did some other stuff. Was a scout, I think. For that Philly team, the 76ers. Then he went off and did his own thing, some kinda business. Kept busy, that Bobby.
I heard he was a real passionate fella about that basketball. Some folks said he had an un-compromisin’ passion for it. Whatever that means. I just know he loved to play, and he was good at it.

He was good at playin’ that basketball game. Fast, I reckon. Could dribble that ball real good. That’s what them young folks say, anyway. They watched him more than I did. I was busy with other things, you know. Life gets in the way sometimes.
