Everything about Art Heyman totally explained
Arthur Bruce Heyman (born
June 24,
1941 in
New York, New York) is an
American former professional
basketball player.
A 6' 5"
guard/
forward, after attending Oceanside High School in New York, Heyman starred for
Duke University in the early
1960s, where he scored 1,984 career points and averaged 25.1 points per game. As a senior in
1963, he earned the
AP National Player of the Year award, the
ACC Player of the Year award, the
Oscar Robertson Trophy, and the
NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player award (even though
Loyola University Chicago actually won the tournament).
Heyman's success in college led to his being selected first in the
1963 NBA Draft by the
New York Knicks. During his first season with the team, he averaged 15.4 points per game and made the
NBA All-Rookie Team. His playing time with the Knicks decreased during his second year, however, causing his scoring average to drop to just 5.7 points per game. Heyman parted ways with New York in
1965, and after brief stints with the
Cincinnati Royals and
Philadelphia 76ers, he left the NBA for the
American Basketball Association in
1967.
He played in the ABA for the next three seasons, winning a league championship with the
Pittsburgh Pipers in
1968 as he averaged over 20 points a game.
Heyman retired from basketball in
1970 with 4,030 combined NBA/ABA points.
Heyman is now a member of the Duke Sports Hall of Fame and the Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.
His Duke
jersey number #25 was
retired in 1990.
In 1996, he opened Tracy J's Watering Hole in
Manhattan,
New York.
