Before he wrote his name in sports history, he unleashed his grit in the Elks Hoop Shoot.

Chris Mullin, sponsored by Brooklyn, N.Y., Lodge No. 22, made 23 of 25 free throws at the 1974 Elks Hoop Shoot National Finals and won a national championship—but that was just the beginning of his basketball journey.

Mullin went on to play 16 seasons in the NBA, where he was a five-time all-star and four-time All-NBA selection. He also won two Olympic gold medals, including one with the 1992 “Dream Team.”

Since he retired from professional basketball, Mullin has been elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (twice), College Basketball Hall of Fame, and of course, the Elks Hoop Shoot Hall of Fame.

Mullin is just one of many incredible Elks Hoop Shoot alumni! View the other Elks Hoop Shoot Hall of Famers at https://elkshoopshoot.org/hall-of-fame/
