Cliff Hagan is a Hall of Fame small forward drafted by the Boston Celtics in the 3rd round of the 1953 NBA Draft.  Before playing in the NBA, Cliff Hagan led the Kentucky Wildcats to an NCAA Champsionship in 1951 as a sophomore.  Nicknamed “Lil’ Abner”, Cliff Hagan was known for his jump hook shot.  Below is a look at some of Cliff Hagan’s career highlights:

Cliff Hagan’s rookie card is in the 1957 Topps along with Bill Russell, Bob Cousy and Bob Pettit.  Cliff Hagan is very fan friendly and still responds to TTM requests.  I purchased a raw card on eBay and sent it in a bubble mailer with a blue sharpie and $10 in hopes that he would add a couple inscriptions and I am very happy with how it turned out.
