Donaldson, a 1979 alum of Washington State University, also talks about his WSU and NBA basketball career, influential coaches George Raveling and Lenny Wilkens, and how the suicide of WSU football player Tyler Hilinski shook him to the core so much that he sought help.

Basketball legend Lenny Wilkens joins me on The Boone Podcast!
Jim is joined by friend of the pod Dave "Wando" Wandolowski to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA point guard Andre Miller. First, Jim and Wando discuss what kind of legacy Miller left on the NBA and why he so often goes overlooked when thinking about the better point guards of the 2000s (5:11). Next, they stumble into building a Mount Rushmore consisting of the most random NBA players to drop 50+ points in a game, compare parts of Miller's game to Jason Kidd and Lenny Wilkens, and break down the membership of the exclusive 16,000+ point/8,000+ assist club. (15:32). Finally, they discuss the glaring lack of accolades on Miller's resume (51:08), before making a final call on whether or not Miller deserves to be inducted into the HOF (58:35).
