Lew Geter has to be on that list. Gus Johnson was right handed.

He was the first one I thought of but when I googled his image I couldn't find any images of him shooting with his left hand. Thought I might just have been incorrect.

I knew Troutman was a south paw, but I would have bet money that Gus Johnson was, too. I guess that was too far back into my teens for me to remember.

Anyone of those old geezers that shot underhanded from the line or whacked pre-3 pointers with those two handed set shots!

Lewis Geter may need to be #1 on that list.

What about John Rhodes? He was a lefty, no?

I think Mick was ambidextrous (at least when it came to drinking his favorite cold one).

Eric Hitlon was right handed.
