UPERSTARS like Michael Jordan, Ka-


reem Abdul-Jabbar, Alonzo Mourn-
ing, Lafayette Fat Lever, Bob Elliot,
and George Iceman Gervin helped make
the game of basketball what it is today.
These icons teamed up with fellow former
professional basketball players as part of
the National Basketball Retired Players
Association (NBRPA). In 1992, the original
founders: David DeBusschere, Oscar Rob-
ertson, Dave Cowens, Archie Clark and
Dave Bing had a vision and brought this
elite fellowship together and created the
most powerful professional retired play-
ers association. The NBRPA, partnering
with Sports Media Marketing LLC, created
Rebound Magazine, the NBA Approved
Official Magazine of the NBRPA.

Now enter the newest members, the


WNBA. Teresa Weatherspoon, Cynthia
Cooper-Dyke, Dawn Staley, Sheryl Swoops,
Nikki McCray, Carla McGhee and Penny
Toler make up the inaugural class of
former WNBA players as members of
the NBRPA.
