7. Shaun Livingston
Shaun Livingston, who is commonly known as S Dot, faced a bit of diversity during his time in the league, but he still managed to make his hometown proud.
It all began in November of 2004 when Livingston made his NBA debut with the Los Angeles Clippers. He showed a bit of promising value as a combo guard in the league. However, the problem is that injuries rattled Livingston’s ability to become anything more than a role player. Among the other teams he played for include the Miami Heat, Oklahoma City Thunder, Washington Wizards, Charlotte Bobcats, Milwaukee Bucks, Cleveland Cavaliers, Brooklyn Nets and the Golden State Warriors. Livingston’s time with the latter organization proved to be the most fruitful of all by yielding him the chance to chase multiple NBA championship titles.
Livingston announced his retirement from the league in September of 2019. Around that time, he was waived by the Warriors.
Livingston has posted career averages of 6.3 points, 2.4 rebounds and 3 assists per game over the course of 17 years.
Among Livingston’s most esteemed accolades include one McDonald’s All-American honor, ranking among the top 20 in steals for one season and three NBA championship titles.
Livingston was born in Peoria, Illinois. He attended high school at Peoria Central High School in Peoria, Illinois.
Livingston has a 0.1% chance of getting inducted as a player into the Hall of Fame.
