episode 181: Ernie DiGregorio, Rich Lisk
Host Bill Donohue welcomes Ernie DiGregorio, widely known as "Ernie D.", Ernie's NBA career spanned from 1973 to 1978, playing for the Buffalo Braves, Los Angeles Lakers, and Boston Celtics. Honored as NBA Rookie of the Year in 1973–74, he holds the rookie record for assists in a single game with 25. Despite a career-limiting knee injury, DiGregorio's impact extends to college basketball, where he and Marvin Barnes led Providence to the 1973 NCAA Final Four. Inducted into the College Basketball Hall of Fame in 2019, he also played a key role in a U.S. victory over a Soviet team, contributing to international basketball acclaim. Elected to the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame in 1999, Ernie DiGregorio's legacy is characterized by resilience and significant contributions to the history of the sport.
In the show's second half, Bill talks lacrosse with Rich Lisk, EVP of the New York Riptide, Long Island's professional lacrosse team.
