- Bobby Hurley was a savvy guard that used every ounce of his physical ability but came up short in the NBA. In college though! He was a problem! Ncaa career leader in assist and 2x national champion. Put some respect on his name. Here's 3 reasons his growth was Stunted.

I think being in a serious automobile accident would 'stunt' any athletes growth.
@Ryan Williams Tell that to Drazen Petrovic who died in a car accident, or Chandler Parsons who's career might over because of a car accident or Jason Williams who's career ended due to a motorcycle accident.
During his rookie year was hit by a drunk driver lost a lung, this was a terrible reporting. And attempted to come back with one lung. Google info it’s free
@@tremainedawson3965 what??? He suffered two collapsed lungs in the accident he didn't lose a lung. Why don't you take your own advice and use Google.
@@richiepawlowski6848 That isn't enough?
@@greg12145 Who said it wasn't? me? NO. Did you read the BS spewed and comment on Hurley losing a fcking lung? Pay attention dope.
Bobby Hurley balled out at duke and was on his way up until that 1993 car accident in Sacramento changed his life and career...glad he's staying up and doing well..
Kenny gave that man that WORK in that game.
I grew up watching this guy play at Duke. He has to be one of the all-time great point guards in college basketball history. His career set the foundation for the Duke program as we know it today!
Young Papi-Yo That's facts!
As far as true point guard attributes he was the poster child. I think he more so overachieved with his athletic abilities.
Man that wingspan is short, I see how genetics were against him defensively. In saying that though, salute to him getting that far with skill and heart. If I remember right he was part of the practice squad that beat the dream team in a scrimmage.
Aisosa Obano Yup. That's why I liked him and guys like Steve Blake. They weren't giving an inch
How about when Hurley led his Duke squad to beat the Dream Team in a scrimmage in UC San Diego?
Steve Sung Yup. Forgot to mention that.
You believe that the Dream Team lost on purpose? 😂
Hurley didn’t lead his duke squad against the dream team!! It was mixture of college players 😒
@@trickhotspot9452 preach the truth to em. You know what's good
how about when he was a repo man?
He was a product of his dad and Coach K system he also had alot of great players come through that program when it's really no pressure on you to take the team to the top you can just play your game. I give him mad props for even holding it down like he did. It was better PG that could not have done what he done.
brian banks Facts
Great points, I think coach k does a great job masking player deficiencies. Duke players can't play d when they get to the league.
Like the g.s warriors
Like all the players who played for Duke under K!!!
@@sfrank8687 Yeah 98% of them with a couple of exceptions..Ali Grant Hill
Kenny Anderson might need one. Alchohol, addiction took a lot away from him
Terry S 😅
The accident was the biggest stunt in his career. Without it he wouldn’t have been a superstar but he would been a solid starter in the league. Think Avery Johnson.
I remember Avery Johnson when I was a kid.....he was a smart player. That is a good comparison.
Michael Dickerson Arizona 97' squad
Hardly ever see him turn the ball over... glad hes coaching
St. Anthony's alumni seem to always have a hard time showing up at the pro level despite all the hype in high school and college! I'm not hating, just a consideration looking at former St. Anthony's players
Yeah its weird St Pats has the way better pros but St Anthony would always beat them
AndreaBaixinho it’s coaching
Do one on Dermarr Johnson
Salute to Steve Blake lol that mic sounding mad clean tho 👌🏾
Jessiah Bethea 💯💯 Blake wanted all smoke
So dang sad. My favorite Duke point guard ever. His passes are a joy to watch. Love you Bobby.
This is Peter Dinardo I watched Bobby play and grow up in jersey city Bobby was as tough as could be he never backed down to noboby on the ncaa courts or the tough streets of jersey city Bobby was the straw that stirred the drink at duke great player great person great guy good luck my brother hope your coaching career is as successful as your college career was
I'm from Jersey, Bobby was a tough point guard. But he was only great with great teams..He was on a powerhouse high school team, and a powerhouse college team....But individually was just "good"
just good doesnt get you in the nba
I'm from Jersey City. All I hear about even to this day still is what Bobby Hurley couldn't do instead of what he did. Has a lot better life than probably 95% of those who had the "Elite Gene" which is code word for he's not Black. Guy was as tough as they come. We grew up in same section of Jersey City and my uncle played basketball with and against him on teams since they learned to walk.
You should have seen what they had as a gym. White Eagle Hall in bombed out Downtown before it was a trendy concert venue .
Yes, I was there during these times I know all those guys. Sister Alan RIP St Anthony's Guardian Angel
@Denis McCarthy
Yeah he was a good point guard
@@denismccarthy3145... Solid College PG 😎
Another banger! Like it or not, he was a beast in early 90’s.
Earl Boykins or Louis Bullock (stole this one from someone else), or Marcus Taylor (Michigan)
Best PG ever in NCAA. I love Kenny Anderson, Gary Payton, and Chris Jackson but Bob was a winner.
I hated Duke but I loved Bobby Hurley. Hurley being from Jersey it wasn't strange seeing him playing pick up in the 5 boroughs. Probably one if the purest point guards I ever seen. Great video, he was so good.
Finally I've been asked for this one thx
I've known the Hurleys since I was 8 was good friend with his nephews that I played basketball with them. The addiction was his biggest stunt. He would of been one hell of a PG.
Addiction? To what? Almost getting killed in a car accident?
Aye Bobby Hurly Was Nice I Aint Gone Lie @StuntedGrowth
Another great video 👍 def one of my favorite channels, have you done one on Miles Simon? Keep up the good work!
Kai Jorgensen 👌🏾 Not yet.
I never expected this one...always thought he hit his ceiling in college
nice video, do you have any more Hurley videos?
anyone who has ever driven in Sacramento knows how easy it is to get into a car accident because of someone else's recklessness. That game against J Kidd and Cal was a classic game
Yo....we need to see front court players too. A lot of guards bruh. Clarence Witherspoon, Antonio McDyess, Brian Reese, Purvis Ellis, Waymon Tisdale, Stacey King, etc. love the content.
92alpha13 Facts you right.
The professional game wasn't for him, he took it as far as he could as a ball player. What he did was put together an impressive resume, that would make him a decent coach one day. If he's even your neighbor let alone your coach, he knows what it takes to get to the next level. Nothing to sneeze at right there. Make a video about his brother Danny, it'll be quick.
Another well put part. And I'm not a Duke fan!! Can we see JODY MEEKS, SHANNON BROWN, JOEL BERRY II?
I see u bro!
Stay safe wherever u are ✊🏾
SnapGam!ng ✊🏾 MA g
Loved Hurley so much back in the day.
Hurley was a tough white boy i hated him back then lol
Bobby Hurley used to give me nightmares. Definitely a college legend, like it or not.
He should’ve had his seatbelt on. That was his only stunt. He had the drive to get better. He had the heart too.
growing up as black kid in durham Bob was my favorite player. loved the way he got up and down the court. I modeled my jump shot after his.
Great video can you do one on Kareem Rush
I had to pause this video after watching how cold Kenny Anderson was to see if u had a stunted on him that boy was different in high school and college!!
Kenny Anderson Hurley the business that game. Same thing happen to Wojo when he tried to guard Starbury
Back in the day, he was projected as a modern Bob Cousy: incredible floor general with creativity and speed, but without a jumper. Even without the accident he was never going to be more than a great backup.
You forgot to mention how Hurley balled-out on the Dream Team in scrimmages.
Anderson hunt gave Bobby Hurley that work when unlv won against Duke.
Dexter Strickland UNC... Marquis Estill Kentucky... Taquan Dean/Taqwa Pinero Louisville... DeAngelo Collins HS undrafted hothead!
He was the man for the Dukies... Luv'd his game and defense! East Coast b-ball all about defense!
Jersey city 💪🏾. I grew up across the street from St.Anthony
Played with him two years in a row at the prestigious Five-star camp in 1988,1989. Also, against him in Jimmy V all ACC scrimmage across North Carolina in April 1993! I played DII and wasn't heavily recruited back in da day.
If without injury, he would have thrived in today's game
Good video, when you get a chance cover Greg Jones.
Love the instrumental! What’s the name of the beat?
Not a fan of hurley but def a fan of this page . I know most the viewers probably too young to care but these views are criminally low
I loved the late Mike "Sports Pig" Responts. But, I disagree with his comment. In 1999, Mike made his "All Time Worst 50 NBA Players." He put Bob Hurley, but said, "The real car wreck was his NBA career."
Could you do a Episode on Luther Wright from Elizabeth high in NJ 7'2 300lbs went to Seton Hall then Utah Jazz!
Just so everybody knows this about me, and why I think the way I do about things: I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American.
Bobby was a baller, respect
Lone stunt is the car accident. Kenny Anderson cooked everyone and the 3 was not as vital then as it is now many pgs couldn't shoot it...this may be the first one I don't really agree with. I'm also a partial Duke fan so there's that...
Was my favorite player growing up about cried when hit got it the car wreck that changed his course. I have all his basketball cards still, had all his jerseys
Still have the red,white & blue kings jersey, had his ITZ shoes.
Man imagine what kind of player he could have been. His brother Danny was good too but never went further.
Both have turned out to be good coaches!
Tony Massenburg-Maryland....despite being traded waived and playing overseas, managed to have a long career in the NBA and won a championship in 2005 with the spurs....
He was better than you describe.
You should do Schea Cotton next if you haven't already
Stunted Growth can you do something for Lindsey Hunter he was the point guard with Detroit he was called The ISIAH THOMAS of the '90s but he never liver up to the comparison.He was a lottery pick in the draft of '93 10th overall three spots behind Hurley.He won two NBA TITLES with Detroit and The LA Lakers.
Jersey in the building nuff said...
It was said, that Bob Hurley "armed the shot," and it was called by some a "jump throw."
Go with Luke "Rim" Recker next,ty. Good vids.
He would’ve been top 10 in the 60’s, no diss
Nick "The Quick" Van Exel!!!!!
Bruh, you gotta do Schea Cotton. Major BUST!
A1
Anderson Hunt waxed him in the NCAA finals.
I loved watching Duke get beat by 30 in that championship game against UNLV. Lol
Vincent Beville man I enjoyed that. Duke made me sick. I know dudes back then who favored the Fab 5, but I preferred UNLV.
Lol!
Man he was a Hooper 💯
I thought Hurley would be the next Stockton.
You should do Kenny Anderson or Christian Laettner
I hated Bobby Hurley in the most respectable way. He was just so good. Smart af and played as hard as anybody. Hate that he got hurt in that accident.
He lit the 1992 dream team up just for the record.....pre car wreck
Bobby Hurley was a good collegian
Jeryl Sasser of SMU, Samaki Walker would also be great stories to hear
As Mr. Stunted Growth knows very well, I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American (showing HOW I grew up, and why I think the way I do about things). Sans the terrible car accident, what do you all think Bob Hurley could have been? I don't think that he was another Isiah Thomas or Mark Price, but maybe a 14 points, 7 assists type of player?
the two college championships in four season negate the first two stunts you mentioned
He played harder than anyone out there. He had short legs, basketball smarts and experience but did not have much of a vertical leap. So he wasn't going to be an all-star. But the auto accident his rookie year ended it. End of story.
Daaaaaaamnn that man accident was crazy
Without the accident, I'm not saying he would have been Isiah Thomas or Mark Price. But, I think he could have been a 14-15 points, 8-9 assists guy for 10-12 seasons, had he not had the terrible accident.
1st round pick by the Kings 👑 in 1993
I used to have his rookie card
Seems like height athleticism n outside shooting seems to be the reasons for many of the guys in ur video had stunted growth
Even before I start the episode I have to say: MANDELA EFFECT 100% Hurley passed away (not injured but PASSED AWAY) in a car accident his rookie year it was all over the news & I remember watching a tribute video more than once. Completely blew my mind about a year ago when I heard he had a 7+ year nba carrier & was Coaching in the NCAA ... WTF...?
What bad luck with that car accident. Damn man!
First great white Hype 😫😳
J RUSS Bird
Stunted Growth Bird was no hype tho...he was there hope 🤣🤣🤣
After that accident physically he was never the same and it stunted his career...he was never a freak athlete was never a lockdown defender he was a gritty pass first pure pg who was crafty around the rim....alot of PGs have come and gone exactly like he did i wouldnt call him a bust when you have guys like DSJ and MCW following his career path lol
@Sloan Jackson Funny thing is Steve Nash won back to back MVPS essentially being the same player...if you look back at their college careers and take the names off you would think Hurley would have had the type of career Steve did mentally and physically he was done after the accident confidence was gone
You gotta do a damon bailey feature
He definitely would have had a John Stocton type career
Some guys are special players in college, and that's great, but you don't necessarily see them making that transition to the pros. Mateen Cleaves, David Rivers, comes to mind. I put Bobby Hurley in that group, though it is unfair what happened to him w/ the auto accident. I fully expected Grant Hill and Christian Laettner to tear up the league, though. Grant had those nagging injuries and Christian, I don't know.
If you are under 6’4 in the nba you’d better be quick and be a great shooter. If you’re not quick or a great shooter as was the case with Hurley the best you can hope for would be coming off the bench role player which Hurley was able to accomplish. He overachieved no doubt.
you should do tyler ulis
Honestly with Bob Hurley Sr as your father you have no choice but to be successful. He should write a book on fatherhood and manhood. He’s a great man and made great sons
Number 7
Whatever happened to Scottie Thurman from Arkansas?
Great player. Car accident...Danny Hurley coaches UConn now!
Do Calbert Cheaney
Howard Eisley-Boston College...
