Rick Mount
Richard Carl "Rick" Mount (born January 5, 1947) is a former American basketball player in the American Basketball Association (ABA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Rick Mount )〕 He was the first high school athlete to be featured on the cover of ''Sports Illustrated''.
==Early life==
Rick Mount's father, Pete, was an avid basketball player who intended Rick to learn the game as well. He cut out the bottom of a peanut can so Rick could shoot tennis balls through it. Rick's first time playing with an official basketball goal was during the fourth grade. He was known to beat 8th and 9th graders. However, when it was time to try out for the school basketball team, he wasn't able to make a standard left-hand lay up, which was a requirement for making the roster. That very night he practiced for hours until he had it down, and on the next day of tryouts, he made the team.〔"(Basketball's Man with the Golden Hand )"〕
During the summers, Rick worked as a lifeguard. Learning by repetition, he would shoot for hours at a time between shifts at the local Memorial Park. He gave kids ice cream money to help retrieve loose balls. After the likes of Ken Sailors, Glen Roberts and Paul Arizin, Rick later helped establish the idealistic jump shot form before it was ever textbook, influencing a number of future shooters at all levels in the sport.
