Starting Small Forward: Dominique Wilkins

1990-1994 Stats: 27.2 PPG 7.2 RPG 2.9 APG 1.3 SPG .465 FG%

Though his best numbers came during the 1980’s, Wilkins was still one of the league’s premier players during the 1990s.

Even while rupturing his Achilles’  in 1992, at a time in which the injury was a career-ender, he persevered and made two more All-Star Games as a Hawk.

Wilkins’ best 90’s season came after his Achilles’ injury, as he averaged nearly 30 points per game, while shooting 46.8 percent from the field. He was rewarded by being named an All-Star for the eighth consecutive season.

Unfortunately for Wilkins and Hawks fans worldwide, he was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers during the 1994 season, and an era of Hawks basketball was over.
