Check out a small biopic of my mentor the great David Robinson.....
Following his father into the Navy, David Robinson matriculated into the U.S. Naval Academy in 1983. Competing for the Midshipmen, he was a two-time consensus All-American and won both the Naismith and Wooden Awards his senior year.
Even though he had to serve two years of duty with the Navy following graduation, the San Antonio Spurs still selected him with the No. 1 overall pick in the 1987 draft.
He was worth the wait, winning Rookie of the Year honors in 1990. Nicknamed "The Admiral," Robinson finished his 14-year NBA career as a two-time NBA Champion, 1995 NBA MVP, 10-time All Star, 1992 Defensive Player of the Year.
He also helped the U.S. Olympic team win two golds and a bronze.
