Ohio State Basketball Great Clark Kellogg Produced The Greatest Rookie Season In Indiana Pacers History

Perhaps one of the greatest what-ifs in the history of the Indiana Pacers — who are eyeing their first NBA Championship this June — Clark Kellogg laid his foundation in the Buckeye State.

Donning the Scarlet and Gray in 1979-82, Kellogg emerged as one of the most sought-after NBA prospects following an outstanding career with Ohio State. Across three seasons with the Buckeyes, Kellogg was a rebounding machine, averaging 14.9 points and 10.1 rebounds per game while leading the Big Ten in rebounding twice.

Standing at 6-foot-7 and weighing 225 pounds, Kellogg’s skill set fit the more physical and post-oriented nature of 1980s NBA basketball.
