The Story of the Autograph
Dave Corzine is a former center in the NBA. He played fro 1978 to 1992 with the Washington Bullets, San Antonio Spurs, Chicago Bulls, Orlando Magic and Seattle SuperSonics. The last year of his career he spent playing in Italy.
Corzine is a Chicago-area native. He went to DePaul where he was drafted eighteenth overall in the 1978 NBA Draft by the Bullets. He was a playoff participant right away in 1979 when the Bullets lost to the Sonics in the finals in 1979. He never played more than 11 minutes per game in his years with the Bullets and was traded to the Spurs for a two second round draft picks in the following years.
His minutes more than doubled when he moved to the Spurs and he he spent to years there before being traded to his home town Bulls. In his first year in Chciago the home cooking worked. In about 30 minutes per game he averaged a career high 14 points per game and a career high 8.7 rebounds per game.
He moved on to the Magic where he was the teams first center. That deal would bring the Bulls Toni Kukoc later. A serious knee injury limited his time. He only played a year there before moving tot he Sonics and then playing a year in Italy.
He was nicknamed Lumber, The Lumberjack and Cores during his career.
The Score on Dave Corzine – 6.0
I love Dave’s signature and how much it covers on the cards. Those really open capital letters are pretty cool. It’s always just a shame how busy basketball cards are to show off cool signatures like his. I think my favorite is the 1989 NBA Hoops card with him in a Bulls jersey since that’s where he had his best years.
Thanks Mr. Corzine! I’m giving this return a 6.
