Frank Lubin
  • Induction:
    1997
At 6 feet 7 inches, former Bruins' star Frank Lubin was one of basketball's original big men. After graduating from UCLA in 1931, he played for Universal Pictures, a club team that Lubin helped catapult to national prominence. In 1936, Universal plowed through qualifying tournaments and eventually won an eight-team national final that earned the team the right to fill half of the 14-man U.S. Olympic roster. Lubin was joined on the 1936 Berlin Olympic team by former Bruin standouts Sam Balter, Carl Knowles, Don Piper and Carl Shy, and helped lead the United States to the first of its seven consecutive Olympic gold medals.

Lubin, who died at 89 in 1999, was inducted into the UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame in 1997.
