Austin carr biography

If you’re a Cleveland Cavaliers fan, Austin Carr has starred in your highs and lows. The Cavs took Carr, a scoring machine out of Notre Dame, with the number-one pick in the 1971 NBA Draft, and ultimately retired his number 34.

Carr made the 1974 All-Star team and was a member of the upstart 1976 squad that beat the star-heavy Washington Bullets in the playoffs. That was the Cavs’ signature postseason moment of glory before its 2016 championship.

Carr, a full-time TV analyst for the Cavs since 1997, is a legitimate state treasure.

“When you try to be somebody else it never works.”
