May 15, 1989 - In Game 4 of the 1989 Eastern Conference Semi-Finals, the Milwaukee Bucks suited up just seven healthy players. Terry Cummings (ankle), Rickey Green (hip), Larry Krystowiak (knee surgery), Paul Mokeski (ribs), and Paul Pressey (shoulder) all donned street clothes as their team faced down an 0-3 series deficit.
Thrust into a featured role, 29-year-old BYU graduate Fred Roberts responded, running from sideline to sideline, utilizing an endless stream of screens to operate off of fades and curls, playing 46 minutes and scoring 33 points on 12-of-19 shooting.
Alas, his performance was not enough. Roberts was held scoreless over the game's final 6:28 as the Detroit Pistons bounced back from a 21-point deficit to secure a series-ending 96-94 win.
Roberts' 33-point performance stood as a career-high.

Fred was one of my high school basketball coaches. He's as phenomenal of a person as he was a coach. I learned a lot from Fred, not only about the game of basketball, but about life. Whenever any of us players would challenge him thinking we could beat an old washed up NBA player, he would turn back the clock and smoke us.

Thank you for posting this, remember this game like it was yesterday. Loved these Bucks teams in the '80's. Fred Roberts was a very good blue collar type of player. But, once in a while, he could really go off and and get hot.

He sported it well but I remember the great Frank Brickowski sporting it later in Seattle as well and he was intense.

I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American, too. In 1991-92, I was at a Milwaukee at Clippers game, and had seats behind the basket. Fred Roberts actually got to the line. We sang, "Fredrick Clark Roberts, went to Brigham Young. He's a devout Mormon, born in Provo, Utah! He looks like a school nerd, looks like George McFly!" Lined up, Charles Smith of the Clippers, and Fray Brokuwski of the Bucks, both started laughing!

Great effort. This guy had heart and occasional flash. Looks like he's going against Salley, Mahorn, and Laimbeer. Who was Rodman covering?

@Swove2204 2 жыл бұрын

Rodman played 20 minutes this night and in this clip can be seen defending Ricky Pierce, Tony Brown, and on the final play, Fred Roberts.

Nice mix! Roberts was very smart on the court; sadly, he wasn't the most gifted athlete.
