third in UCLA all-time scoring list ?!

this bama cannot be third on UCLA's career scoring list. UCLA!? the home of Reggie Miller, Kareem, Bill Walton... come on! impossible. if i could find a published list of their career scorers i would change it myself.

Alright, I've figured out why someone wrote he was third in UCLA all-time scoring list. This page, [1], which was written before Kapono's senior year and not updated since, speculates that, if he continues along his then-current career scoring average for his final year, he'd end up with 536 points for the year, and 2,144 for his career, good enough for third behind Don MacLean and Lew Alcindor.

Instead, I'm assuming due to the fact that the Bruins went 10-19, and weren't invited to a post-season tournament, they only played 29 games, and while Kapono averaged 16.8, this was only good for 487 points, and a career total of 2,095. This could still very well be good enough for third on the list, but I don't know.

You should keep in mind that back in the day, college players weren't put on varsity their freshman year. For instance, Bill Walton stayed at UCLA for 4 years, but only played for Wooden for 3 years. That would have had a huge influence on their career numbers, though the fact that they also consistently went deep into the NCAA tournament, usually winning it all, would've balanced that somewhat.

Actually, Kapono is indeed the third all time scorer at UCLA. For verification, see the Bio section here: [2]. This isn't too hard to understand, because as the person above pointed out, Kapono played 4 years and started every game of his freshman year. Anyway, that also explains why Don MacLean is the number 1 scorer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.171.124.221 (talk) 04:30, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Treviso Basket

I don't think that Kapono is a player of Treviso. I think that he has retired since leaving Panathinaikos bc. Also the official site of Treviso doesn't mention him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.6.22.158 (talk) 13:07, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
