Timeline
Jack "Goose" Givens (born September 21, 1956) is an American former professional basketball player.
He played college basketball for the Kentucky Wildcats, earning consensus second-team All-American honors.
Givens earned Kentucky Mr. Basketball and Parade All-American honors after his senior year at Lexington's Bryan Station High School in 1974.
Givens lettered four times in varsity basketball from 1974–75 to 1977–78.
In that span, he scored 2,038 points in 123 games (16.6 ppg), ranking third on the school's all-time scoring list.
In his freshman year at the University of Kentucky, the Wildcats finished as national runners-up, falling 92–85 to UCLA in the 1975 Final Four championship game.

Kentucky retired Givens' #21 jersey and a banner in his honor hangs in the rafters of Rupp Arena, Kentucky's home court.
He led the team to the 1978 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship and was named that year's Final Four Most Outstanding Player due in most part to his 41-point performance in Kentucky's 94–88 victory over Duke in the championship game.

He played two years for the Hawks, scoring 1,040 points in 156 games (6.7 ppg).
Givens played for the Akita Isuzu Motors basketball team of Japan, where he still returns regularly with his family to visit the friends he made there, in 1982–83.
After his playing career, Givens was an NBA television color analyst for various networks and teams, most notably with the Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) and the Orlando Magic for both the Sun Sports and FS Florida cable stations from the team's inception in 1989 to 2004 before being replaced by Matt Guokas.
Givens is the CEO and President of Orlando Comets, a basketball organization that has placed over 60 players into NCAA basketball on full scholarships.
