It may not be a popular opinion to think that Pac-12 basketball announcer Bill Walton’s riffs and tangents when working in sports broadcasting is always entertaining. His mind can leap into topics that range from his stories of visiting the Galapagos Islands to the legalization of marijuana. Those are examples that peek into the mind of a man who has seen and done so much in his lifetime.
His career as a player is heavily decorated as a NCAA Champion and NBA Champion while being mentored by the great basketball minds of John Wooden at UCLA and Jack Ramsay with the Portland Trailblazers.
