Andre Iguodala can check off three of the criteria needed to make the Arizona Sports Hall of Fame: Olympic medalist, professional athletic success and his Wildcat career was more than 10 years ago.
His 11th season in the NBA was capped by being the Finals MVP for the world champion Golden State Warriors last month. He won a gold medal as part of the U.S. national team in the 2012 London Olympics.
Iguodala’s former Arizona teammate and Warriors assistant coach Luke Walton was inducted to the school’s hall of fame in 2010 after he won his second NBA title with the Lakers. His NBA career ended three years later.
Iguodala’s performance at Arizona certainly merits hall of fame consideration. As a sophomore in 2003–04, he was named team MVP after leading the Wildcats in rebounds, assists and steals. He also made the All-Pac-10 First Team team and was named Honorable Mention All-America by The Associated Press.
He achieved a school-record three triple-doubles that season, joining Jason Kidd as the only two players in Pac-10 history to post two or more triple-doubles in a season.
