NBA Hall of Fame Releases Date For The Class of 2020 Induction

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame has finally announced that basketball legends Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant and Tim Duncan will be inducted in May 2021.

The induction was originally supposed to take place in August, but since COVID-19 has stuck around for so long, it kept getting postponed. Now ESPN is reporting that the long awaited Hall of Fame Weekend will be taking place from May 13-15.

From ESPN:

“Bryant, Duncan and Garnett — with a combined 48 All-Star Game selections and 11 NBA championships between them — were the headliners of the class that was announced in April. They all got into the Hall in their first year as finalists, as did WNBA great Tamika Catchings.

Others had to wait a bit longer for the Hall’s call: Two-time NBA champion coach Rudy Tomjanovich got in this year, as did longtime Baylor women’s coach Kim Mulkey, 1,000-game winner Barbara Stevens of Bentley and three-time Final Four coach Eddie Sutton.”
