Host Bill Donohue welcomes Ernie DiGregorio, widely known as "Ernie D.", Ernie's NBA career spanned from 1973 to 1978, playing for the Buffalo Braves, Los Angeles Lakers, and Boston Celtics. Honored as NBA Rookie of the Year in 1973–74, he holds the rookie record for assists in a single game with 25.
