Alonzo Mourning is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on February 8, 1970 in Chesapeake, Virginia, United States. 7-time NBA All-Star, known for his shot-blocking skills and rebounding. In 2006, he won the NBA Championship with Miami Heat.

The Charlotte Hornets drafted him second overall in 1992, just behind the great Shaquille Ol’Neal.

During his time at Indian River High School in Chesapeake, Virginia, he led the team to 51 straight victories and a state title his junior year (1987). As a senior, he averaged 25 points, 15 rebounds and 12 blocked shots per game. He was named Player of the Year by USA Today, Parade, Gatorade, and Naismith. He was the #1 recruit of the 1988 class, over Billy Owens, Kenny Williams, Shawn Kemp, Stanley Roberts, Christian Laettner, Rick Fox, and Malik Sealy, among others.
