Thomas Doane Chambers is a retired American NBA basketball player. Known for his strong shooting and high-flying dunks, Chambers was a NBA star during the 1980s and 1990s. At 6'10", he played at the power forward position as a professional, and was a popular four-time NBA All-Star, most notably with the Seattle Supersonics and the Phoenix Suns. He starred at Fairview High School in Boulder, Colorado before attending the University of Utah. Hailing from an athletic family, Chambers was a promising 6-2 guard at the end of his sophomore year. Suddenly, he grew six inches during the next six... months. As a junior, teammates marveled that he had not lost any coordination with that growth. A broken wrist as a senior forced him to use his left hand more, improving his game. An all-Colorado high school player, he was hotly recruited and enrolled at Utah. At Utah, Chambers played center with star forward Danny Vranes. The two led successful teams in the Western Athletic Conference. An excellent athlete, some doubted Chambers would be successful at the NBA level as he would not likely remain a center there.
