Retired NBA stars Dwyane Wade, Tony Parker, Pau Gasol and Dirk Nowitzki were among 12 finalists named on Friday, Feb. 17, for 2023 induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame.
SALT LAKE CITY — The international superstar foursome and Gregg Popovich, a five-time NBA champion coach with the San Antonio Spurs, were all first-time nominees to join the game’s all-time greats.
In all, 11 of the 12 were finalists for the first time, but especially notable was the NBA talent nominated for the first time. It will be hard to ignore the global greats who were inspired by the 1992 US Olympic “Dream Team” of NBA icons who rolled to gold in Barcelona.
