Before Michael, there was Elgin By Larry Schwartz Special to ESPN.com It is possible that no forward ever performed with the offensive proficiency and flair that Elgin Baylor showed for the Lakers in the late 1950s and throughout the '60s. It just wasn't the number of points he scored; it was the way he got them, thrilling fans with the remarkable variety of his elegant actions. After signing with the Lakers for $20,000 as a rookie in 1958, Elgin Baylor basically saved the financially failing franchise. The 6-foot-5, 225-pound Baylor was a rare combination of strength and grace, scoring either by powerful moves or acrobatic fakes. He would turn his back to his defender and begin a series of rhythmic dribbling feints from side to side, all the while sliding closer to the basket, protecting the ball with elbows and shoulders. Once inside, he would bull his way for a layup or, if his path was blocked, hang in the air seemingly longer than humanly possible before softly depositing the ball in the basket. Nor was Baylor just a scorer; his strength and timing enabled him to become one of the league's outstanding rebounders, too. Baylor was all-NBA first team in 10 of his first 11 seasons, including his first seven. He averaged more than 30 points three times and more than 20 eight other times. (Incredibly, he never led the league in scoring.) He averaged 27.4 points per game for his career, best ever for a forward and third highest all-time behind Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain. Baylor scored 71 points in a game, the only forward to get more than 65. He scored 61 in a playoff game, still a Finals record. (The only player who scored more in a playoff game was Jordan, but he needed two overtimes to reach his 63.)

Hardman Charleston Gazette-Mail January 18, 1959 The American Business Club of Charleston, which dropped between $800 and $1,000 on the Minneapolis - Cincinnati professional basketball game Friday night at the Civic Center, Saturday filed a protest with the National Basketball Association over the failure of rookie star Elgin Baylor to appear in the Minneapolis lineup. In a telegram to League President Maurice Podoloff in New York, ABC Promoter H. Thomas Corrie said: "Urge disciplinary action against Elgin Baylor of Minneapolis club, who refused to play against Cincinnati here Friday night in protest of hotel segregation. Records show Minneapolis club was advised on Dec. 29 that segregation enforced at hotels. His absence from lineup most embarrassing to us and damaged our chances of promoting future NBA games here." Baylor and the entire Minneapolis team spent Friday night at a Negro motel in Charleston after a mid- town hotel had refused to house three Negro players, including Baylor.

Home Arts Historic Preservation Museums ... Where We Are Entire Site Arts Goldenseal Historic Preservation Museums Comments or Questions about our site? E-Mail our Webmaster Warming Up By Dick Hudson Charleston Daily Mail January 17, 1959 Baylor More Concerned About Eating Place Elgin Baylor seemed more concerned with his stomach than with a bed in a local hotel. The star rookie of the Minneapolis Lakers refused to put on his uniform for the professional league game here last night against the Cincinnati Royals . . . That's why Cincinnati won the game, 95-92, before a crowd of 2,356 paid customers. The big colored boy from Washington, D. C., who played at Seattle, was irritated over racial discrimination. When Baylor wasn't admitted to a hotel with his teammates in Charlotte, N. C. in November, he was quoted by Rod Hundley as saying, "I'm no dog; if this ever happens again, I won't play." Hundley, returning to his home town with the Lakers, tried in vain to persuade Baylor to play . . . right up until moments before the game last night in the Civic Center. Big "Elg" didn't argue about it, but wouldn't give in. So far, all inferences blamed practic of local hotels in refusing admission of colored people, but Baylor talked with Daily Mail sports scribe Bill Smith at length and never mentioned the hotel situation.
