The Case For Payton: Best known for his Hall Of Fame NBA career, Payton began his playing days in Corvallis, where he pieced together one of the Pac-8/10/12’s best individual seasons as a senior in 1989-1990. Finishing that campaign as the conference’s Player of the Year with ridiculous averages of 25.7 points, 8.1 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 3.4 steals per game, the 6’ 4” guard carved his own massive path in the annals of Oregon State basketball folklore for many years to come.
