Timeline

1931

Clifford Oldham Hagan (born December 9, 1931) is an American former professional basketball player.

1951

He won an NCAA basketball championship in 1951 as a member of the Kentucky Wildcats, and he won an NBA championship with the Hawks in 1958.

Hagan played college basketball at the University of Kentucky under legendary coach Adolph Rupp.

As a sophomore in 1951, he helped Kentucky win the NCAA championship with a 68–58 victory over Kansas State.

1952

In the fall of 1952, a point shaving scandal involving three Kentucky players forced Kentucky to forfeit Hagan's senior season.

In 1952 and 1954, he was named an All-American and was named First Team All-Southeastern Conference.

His uniform number 6 was retired by the University of Kentucky.

Hagan served in the U.S. military for two years after being drafted.

1953

Hagan graduated from Kentucky in 1953 and, as a result, became eligible for the NBA draft.

Despite having graduated, and despite being drafted by the Boston Celtics, he returned to play at Kentucky for the 1953–1954 season.

On December 5, 1953, Hagan set a Kentucky single-game record of 51 points; this performance would not be surpassed until 1970.

After finishing the regular season with a perfect 25–0 record and a #1 ranking in the Associated Press, Kentucky was offered a bid into the NCAA tournament.

However, then-existing NCAA rules prohibited graduate students from participating in post-season play; the Wildcats declined the bid because their participation would have forced them to play without Hagan and two of his teammates.

Hagan averaged 24 points per game that season.

At Kentucky, Hagan had scored 1,475 points, which ranked him third in school history.

He also grabbed 1,035 rebounds, which placed him second.

1954

In both of his years in the military (1954 and 1955), Hagan, stationed at Andrews Air Force Base, won Worldwide Air Force basketball championships.

After his military service, Hagan and Ed Macauley were traded to the St. Louis Hawks for the draft rights to Bill Russell.

Hagan married his wife, Martha, on September 4, 1954.

1956

A 6′ 4″ forward who excelled with the hook shot, Hagan, nicknamed "Li’l Abner", played his entire 10-year NBA career (1956–1966) with the St. Louis Hawks.

1958

In 1958, the Hawks won the NBA championship, defeating the Boston Celtics 4–2 in the NBA Finals.

The Hawks won four Western Conference titles during Hagan's tenure with them.

Hagan was named to five consecutive NBA All-Star Games from 1958 to 1962.

In The Breaks of the Game, David Halberstam wrote that Hagan was the only white star on the Hawks who welcomed African American teammates like Lenny Wilkens to the team and did not treat them with prejudice.

Hagan played 745 games over 10 NBA seasons.

He scored 13,447 points for an 18.0 points per game average.

1967

Hagan played in 94 ABA games and scored 1,423 points for a 15.1 points per game average.
