Hal Greer was one of the best point guards of the 60's. He was a complete offensive phenom and was the picked in the second round of the NBA draft by the Syracuse Nationals, which went on to become the Philadelphia 76ers. After the franchise turnover, they had recruited Wilt Chamberlin. Both of them together took on the eight-year dominance of the Bill Russell led Boston Celtics in the 1967 NBA Finals. He was selected 10 times for the All-Star games and was said to be the third best point guard of his generation after Oscar Robertson and Jerry West.

Harold Greer hailed from a small town in West Virginia called Huntington. He is a local favorite and has a one and a half mile stretch named after him called Hal Green Boulevard. Over the course of his career, he scored 21,586 points, both his college and NBA team jersey numbers 16 and 15 were retired by Marshall University and the Philadelphia 76ers. His highest scoring performance has been against Bill Russell's Boston Celtics with him dropping 50 points that night.
