Herb Williams was another Ohio State Buckeye who became one of the Indiana Pacers' most reliable big men in the early to mid-1980s.
A 6'10" forward-center, Williams joined forces with Clark Kellogg in 1982 to form an impressive frontcourt tandem for Indiana.
However, it was not meant to be, as Kellogg was hampered by knee issues, resulting in the Pacers averaging just 27 games during his tenure.
In spite of that, Williams went on to average 15 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in seven-and-a-half seasons as a Pacer.
He also wound up in the top 10 in 13 statistical categories for Indiana, which include points (8,637), field goals made (3,606), total rebounds (4,494), blocked shots (1,094) and games (577), per the Pacers' official website.
