Jerry Sloan, one of the NBA's true coaching legends, has passed away.
Drafted by the Baltimore Bullets with the fourth-overall selection in 1965, Sloan was later traded the Chicago Bulls to play the bulk of his 11-season career. He built a reputation as a hard-nosed defensive guard, earning two all-star selections and being named to six all-defensive teams, including four first team selections.
Two years later, Sloan became a scout for the Bulls and eventually started his head coaching career with Chicago in the 1979-80 season.
