Rex Chapman has been described as the greatest high school basketball talent to ever come out of the state of Kentucky. If you know anything about the basketball tradition in the bluegrass state, then you know that’s a big compliment.

Chapman chose to play his college ball at UK and earned the nickname King Rex as he took the Wildcats to the SEC Title in both of his two seasons. That kind of attention can rub people the wrong way, and Chapman lashed out at times on the court and off. After two seasons he left and was the first overall pick by the expansion Charlotte Hornets.
