Another year, another glimmer of hope for Eddie Sutton.
The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced its 2020 finalists on Friday, and Sutton is one of the names (among some very big names). The nominee list here is pretty insane.
Kobe Bryant (Player)
Tim Duncan (Player)
Kevin Garnett (Player)
Eddie Sutton (Coach)
Rudy Tomjanovich (Coach)
Tamika Catchings (Player)
Kim Mulkey (Coach)
Barbara Stevens (Coach)
Sutton has famously been kept out of the Hall over the past decade for various (ridiculous) reasons. This is the seventh time he’s been a finalist.
