Travels From
A Michigan man, born and bred, Rudy Tomjanovich attended the University of Michigan to play basketball for the Wolverines. An All-American and 2x First-Team Big East selection, Tomjanovich ended his Wolverine playing days as the career leader in rebounds. He was subsequently drafted in 1970 NBA Draft as the 2nd overall pick by the San Diego Rockets (who later moved to Houston). He spent 11 seasons with the Rockets, earning 5 All-Star appearances and averaging 17.4 ppg for his career which he finished in 1981 as the 3rd leading scoring in franchise history. Tomjanovichs #45 jersey is retired for both Michigan and Houston and following his playing career he began a coaching career as a scout for his former team. Rudy T took over the Rockets in 1992 and just two years later led the team to his first of two consecutive NBA Titles. In 1998, Tomjanovich volunteered to take a group of CBA players to compete in the FIBA World Championship where they managed to bring home the bronze. He was then awarded the coaching position for the 98 Olympics where he led Team USA to Olympic gold.
