Sixers - NBA Basketbal - Julius Dr. Erving - Basketball

Julius Winfield Erving II (Nassau County, New York), February 22, 1950), widely known by the nickname Dr. J, is a former American basketball player. Erving made a major contribution to modern basketball, where athleticism, jumping, and playing above the rim became increasingly important.

In 1976, at the time of the NBA's merger, he was the best-known player in the American Basketball Association (ABA). He won, across ABA and NBA, three championships and four Most Valuable Player Awards. He led the scoring chart for three seasons. He did so while playing for the Virginia Squires and the New York Nets in the ABA, and the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA. With 30,026 points (NBA and ABA combined), he is the fifth-highest scorer in professional basketball history. He is the only player to have been named Most Valuable Player in both the ABA and the NBA. In 1996 Erving was honored as one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History, a list compiled that year to celebrate the NBA's 50th anniversary. In 1993 he was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame.

Erving was one of the best basketball players ever. He was known for his free-throw line dunk. He was one of the greatest dunkers of all time. His most famous dunk was the "slam" dunk. Since then this move has become a fixed concept in basketball and is viewed by most as a fundamental part of the game. He is also credited with popularizing the cross-over dribble and the no-look pass.
