Black History Month:
FIRST AFRICAN-AMERICAN TO PLAY IN THE NBA

On October 31, 1950, 21-year-old Earl Lloyd becomes the first African-American to play in an NBA game when he takes the court in the season opener for the Washington Capitols.

Lloyd grew up in Jim Crow Virginia and went to West Virginia State, where he was the star of the school’s championship basketball team. He didn’t know he’d been drafted by the NBA until he ran into a friend on campus who told him she’d heard a rumor that he’d be moving to Washington. It turned out that the Capitols had picked him in the ninth round of the draft. Two other black players joined the NBA that season—the Celtics drafted Chuck Cooper in the second round and the New York Knicks got Nat "Sweetwater" Clifton from the Harlem Globetrotters—but the Knicks and the Celts didn’t start their seasons until November. As a result, Lloyd became a coincidental pioneer: the first black player to make his debut in the NBA.

Born: April 3, 1928 (age 85), Alexandria, VA
Weight: 225 lbs (102 kg)
Career start: 1950
Career end: 1960
Education: West Virginia State University
Position: Small forward
