Has any NBA players won championships in their first 3 years?

[joebatters]

Or does Norris Cole have a chance to be the first? I looked for this everywhere and couldn't find an answer..google,etc.

Anyone from the bulls.

Devean George and Scott Williams did it

sure some guys on Minny in the 50s and C's in the 60s did it. A lot of players on those teams but besides them just those 2

I was just about to post this... but I think he means first 3 years in the league. Heat are going for the 3 peat this year

Jason Caffey

Im sure this happens virtually every single year.

Almost every team has at least 1 rookie.

I bet this has happened a thousand times.

I must not be understanding the question correctly.

Jason Caffey

might be wrong but when I looked it up I think Caffey got traded midway through 98 so he didn't get the 3rd title.

no who has won the title their 1st 3 years in the league. Norris Cole would do it if Heat do it this year.

Few other roleplayers did it. Although I'm sure plenty of notable guys did it on the Celts in the 60s

My bad.
Like I said I must have been reading the question wrong and as it turns out I was.

I thought he was asking if any player ever won an NBA title in his first 3 years. As in 1 title in his first 3 years. LOL

Totally my bad. He worded it right and I read it wrong.

Of course 1000's of players won a title in there first 3 years but thats not what he was asking.

isn't it, "have any NBA players won championships in their first 3 years?"

at least two people are confused in this short thread.

If you read his initial post most can determine what he was trying to say.

 

[Shub]

Not you but those confused

Oh he means if they've won a championship in each of the first 3 years of the NBA?

George came into the league a year earlier than their first title

You simply look up the list of NBA champs by year and check out their roster. Starting with the first year and look for rookies
