	Luc Longley
		Lucien James "Luc" Longley is arguably Australia's greatest-ever basketball player, winning three NBA championship rings as a member of the Chicago Bulls starting five from 1995-96 through 1997-98.
		A 7'2" (218 cm) center, Longley provided part of the defensive muscle in a team full of stars, including the superstar Michael Jordan.
		Longley's reputation in Australia is undermined by his paucity of appearances in international matches, mostly due to the knee injuries that eventually ended his career, and his lack of offense (particularly with Andrew Gaze[?], a three-point shooter).

		Luc Longley has had to rediscover life in the real world after being a key member of the most famous basketball team on the planet.
		Luc had earned his place in the National Basketball Association, but no amount of dedication or talent could guarantee a spot on a team described as the best in the history of the game; a team led by the world's greatest player - Michael Jordan.
		Luc was the Bulls' starring centre for the three championships of 1996-98, doing much of the grunt work on court, taking on bodies to free up Jordan and Pippen to score and Rodman to rebound.

		Longley said he was disappointed Bogut got off to a start like that, but accepted that he was relatively inexperienced in dealing with the media.

		Luc's career college totals (4 years) were 13.4 points per game (in his last season he average 19.1 ppg), 7 boards a game and 2.6 blocks per game.

		Bogut added that Longley was not followed that much in Australia when he was playing NBA because "he wasn't an all-star or a superstar".
		It came a day after he said he was quicker, more competitive and had a better shot than countryman Luc Longley, the centre who won three NBA championships in the 1990s playing alongside the incomparable Michael Jordan at the Chicago Bulls.
		Longley is a fine person with a strong intellect (the only NBA player who wanted to be a marine biologist) but he had limitations as a player.
