Tom Payne (born Thomas Robert Payne on November 19, 1950)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=California Registered Sex Offender Profile - Thomas Robert Payne )〕 is a former professional basketball player, profesional boxer and a convicted serial rapist.
A 7-foot, 1-inch center, Payne played with the Atlanta Hawks of the NBA during the 1971-1972 season. He was also the first African American ever to play basketball for the University of Kentucky. Payne is currently incarcerated in Kentucky State Reformatory in LaGrange, Kentucky.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Offender Online Lookup System )〕
==Early years==
The eldest of nine children, Payne broke one record in birth; he was the longest baby ever born at the local hospital. He grew up in a home where academics were stressed; his father had attained the rank of master sergeant in the United States Army before retiring, and his mother had a bachelor's degree in biology. His eight siblings were also well-educated, with a total of fourteen college degrees.
Despite his height and incredible physical skills, Payne was basically a newcomer to basketball. He didn't play organized basketball until his sophomore season at Shawnee High School at Louisville, Kentucky. By his senior season, he was one of the most coveted players in the nation, with Kentucky and UCLA recruiting him. On June 9, 1969 the high-school All-American signed with Kentucky; he was not only the tallest player ever to play at the school, he was also legendary coach Adolph Rupp's first-ever African-American player.
