Eighteen players with the last name King have suited up in the NBA, and this franchise has had its fair share with three Kings.
It therefore only seemed fitting when picking a player with the letter K for our series to land on with the last name King, and the choice is Reginald Biddings King, who went by Reggie during his playing career.
Reggie King was born in Birmingham and was a local hero when he attended the University of Alabama from 1975 to 1979. “The Mule”, so named for his physical play, was a two-time All-American and two-time SEC Player of the Year, leading the Tide to one NCAA Tournament win over future teammate Phil Ford and the North Carolina Tar Heels.
