Remember Wayman Tisdale?

Wayman Tisdale was the 2nd Pick of the 1985 NBA Draft. He was a 6 foot 9 Forward/Center who averaged over 15 ppg and 6 rpg in his 12 year career. He played with Phoenix, Sacramento and Indiana in his career. He had some great years as a King, in the 1989-90 NBA season Tisdale averaged 22 ppg and 8 rpg, he was no joke.

If you do remember him, I don't need to go on.

Did you know that Tisdale is now a very successful jazz artist?

Tisdale is one of the top smooth jazz artists around today, known for his skills as a bassist. Tisdale has released seven albums since 1995. His latest, "Way Up" was released in 2006, here's a bit on him and his career now.

Yes, Tisdale has had the most successful jump from NBA to music, no doubt.

Apologies to Allen Iverson, who never even got his album out.
