| | | Chucky Brown of the Cleveland Cavaliers -- at least as of today -- has played for an NBA-record 11 teams during his 12-year career.
|  | | Brown |
As pro basketball's most well-traveled player, Brown has performed alongside such NBA legends as Hakeem Olajuwon, David Robinson, James Worthy, Bernard King, Maurice Cheeks and Clyde Drexler. He also was involved in the five-player trade that sent Charles Barkley from Phoenix to Houston in 1996.
The 2001 NBA All-Star Game was a showcase for FOCs ("Friends of Chucky"), as eight players who have shared a roster with Brown were chosen for the big show in D.C.
All this caused Page 2 to wonder: How would a roster of All-Stars who played with Chucky fare against a team of All-Stars who have yet to call Chucky their teammate? We did some research and put the two teams together. Now, it's up to you to pick the winner in Page 2's first annual Chucky Brown All-Star Game.
Also, take a look at some of his different NBA stops in the
