Former NBA Champion Scot Pollard Takes On ‘Survivor’

Former NBA center Scot Pollard, who won a NBA Championship in 2008 with the Boston Celtics, has made his debut on Survivor.

The 32nd season of Survivor takes place in Koh Rong, Cambodia, and the contestants are split into three tribes:  Chan Loh (Brains), To Tang (Brawn), and Gondol (Beauty).  Pollard, who stands 6’11” and had a listed playing weight of 278 pounds is on the Brawn tribe. Pollard was drafted with the 19th overall pick in the 1997 NBA Draft by the Detroit Pistons out of the University of Kansas. Pollard made it into the NBA Playoffs every season except for his rookie year and made it to the Finals twice, 2007 with Cleveland, and 2008. Pollard had career stints with the Sacramento Kings and Indiana Pacers before retiring in 2008. He averaged 4.4 points and 4.7 rebounds per game. It’s probably safe to say he was more known for his unique hairstyles than stuffing the box score.
