As O'Neal said to Anderson at the Orlando jersey retirement ceremony, "Nick, I always think you are the first jersey that Orlando should retire!"

Then, according to O'Neal, Scott is definitely qualified to be the second one!

The old rules are from the beginning.

He ranked third in the league in three-point shooting, fourth in shooting, and 11th in shooting percentage of 37%. This was very impressive in that era. In the second year, he played his best career performance, averaging 19.9 points per game, but only played 18 games due to injury.

Then, O'Neal came. In the 1992-93 season, Scott slowly recovered, playing 54 games, averaging 16 points per game, and a three-point shooting percentage of 40%

In the game against the Bucks, he made 9 of 19 three-pointers and scored a career-high score of 41 points!

Then, the penny comes.

In the 1993-94 season, out of tactical arrangements, he began to lead the second team, with three-point shooting increasing proportions, and began to transform, gradually becoming a fixed-point shooter who runs without the ball. He made 155 three-pointers throughout the season, second in the league!

In 1995, the Magic's finals journey was a glorious moment in Scott's career.

Killed the Celtics in the first round, averaging 13.5 points per game, and a 43% three-point shooting percentage of

But in the finals, he was limited to averaging only 10 points per game. In the 1995-96 season, O'Neal only played 54 games due to injury, and Scott took on more offensive responsibilities. He shot 267 three-pointers throughout the season, the league's first! He made 3.3 shots per game, which is still the first in the league! ! Three-point shooting percentage is 43%

Then, the shark ran away.

A year later, his fate with Magic came to an end and was sent to Dallas.

That was the Mavericks' reconstruction period, and they traded frequently. He only played for half a season with the Mavericks before being sent to the Suns. After the season ended, he joined the Knicks, but was cut two months later, missing the opportunity to participate in the Black Eight Legend. After he was cut, he signed with the Timberwolves until the end of the season, but missed the playoffs due to injury.

The last stop of his career was the Vancouver Grizzlies.

In August 2000, the Grizzlies sent him to the Wizards. They were cut before the season started. He was unemployed for a year and went to Los Angeles to sign a contract. Unfortunately, he was cut again before the season started and missed the championship.

At this point, Scott completely retired. He was only 32 years old at that time.

If there is no injury, he can still be a good champion puzzle.
