Three Crowns for Seven (Answers to Triple Crown Winners)




His Royal Airness


If you read the previous blog: http://blogwieser.blogspot.com/2012/07/ncaa-title-nba-title-olympic-gold.html  you now know that, Earvin "Magic" Johnson, and Michael "Air" Jordan are two players that have won NCAA and NBA titles, as well as an Olympic Gold. So can you name the other five without looking at the link? Of course you can't or you wouldn't be back! Here are your hints again...

First hint a gimme is Magic Johnson. Magic was the only player to win the NCAA title as an underclassmen, and the tournament MOP, while winning an NBA title as a rookie and being the only rookie to win the MVP award in a title series, where he played three different positions. He is also the only retired NBA player to go on to win an Olympic gold medal.

Magic was also one of the coaches, but there are three more. Out of those three, two were collegiate, Olympic, and pro teammates. One was a player coach. Magic and Michael are/were owners, and own different sports teams outside of their expertise as players. Still don't know who the others are? I didn't either, and you would have to be a real sports junkie to figure out who they are!
