Leon Wood
10th pick by the Philadelphia 76ers in 1984
Wood was only at Arizona for the 1979-80 season. He finished his college career at Cal State Fullerton. He played for six different NBA teams during his six-year playing career.
The summer he was drafted by the 76ers, he won a Gold Medal at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics as a member of the USA Basketball National Team. Chris Mullin, Michael Jordan and Patrick Ewing were teammates of the former Wildcat, on that classic team.
Wood just finished his 20th season as an NBA referee.
