Resumes for Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, each member of 2020 Hall of Fame class

From Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett to Tamika Catchings and Rudy Tomjanovich, here are the resumes for all nine members of the 2020 Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame class.

The 2020 class for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame was officially announced Saturday morning, and as expected, it was headlined by some legendary NBA names like Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett.

These announcements were merely a formality, as all three were undoubted first-ballot Hall-of-Famers the second they retired. It’s not surprising to see any of them make the 2020 Hall of Fame class in their first year of eligibility.

However, there are plenty of other names in the class worthy of recognition, from Rudy Tomjanovich and Tamika Catchings to Eddie Sutton and Kim Mulkey. Here’s a brief snapshot of the Hall of Fame resumes for all nine prominent members of this year’s class.
