Several divisions in the 21st century semi-pro ABA were initially named after stars of the old ABA, including Dampier.
Louis Dampier (born November 20, 1944) is an American retired professional basketball player.
Dampier was born in Indianapolis and played at Southport High School; leading the Cardinals to two IHSAA Sectional titles and the finals of the IHSAA Regionals in 1961–62 and 1962–63.
He also played in the Annual All-Star game featuring the top high school Senior players from Indiana and Kentucky.
During the series following his senior season (1962–63) Dampier faced a Kentucky team led by Clem Haskins and Wayne Chapman.
Dampier averaged 8.5 points as the Indiana team split the series with Kentucky.
Dampier was a two-sport athlete at the University of Kentucky, playing baseball as well as basketball.
Playing under coach Adolph Rupp, Dampier, Tommy Kron and Pat Riley led Rupp's Runts to the 1966 NCAA championship game, where they lost to Texas Western College (now the University of Texas at El Paso) in a watershed game for college basketball.
This game spearheaded the end of racial segregation in college basketball.
During his three years at Kentucky (at the time, freshmen were ineligible to play varsity sports), Dampier was a two-time All-American and three-time All-Southeastern Conference selection.
He was also named Academic All-SEC twice and Academic All-American once.
A 6-foot-tall guard, Dampier is one of only a handful of men to play all nine seasons in the American Basketball Association (ABA) (1967–1976), all with the Kentucky Colonels.

In 1967, the Cincinnati Royals (now the Sacramento Kings) selected Dampier in the fourth round of the NBA draft and the Kentucky Colonels selected him in the ABA draft.

In each of the ABA's first three seasons, both Dampier and Carrier averaged at least 20 points per game.
Both were three-point field goal specialists (the ABA had used the three-point field goal from its inception), but especially Dampier who made 500 during a three-year stretch: a record 199 during the 1968–69 season, 198 in 1969–70 and 103 in 1970–71.
At the conclusion of the ABA's history, Dampier made a career-record 794 3-point field goals.
