1988 Final Four star Blaylock in prisonΒ
At the 1988 Final Four, when Arizona lost to Oklahoma in a semifinal and Kerr shot a career-worst 2 for 13 from the field, the emerging star was OU guardΒ Mookie Blaylock. His defensive pressure and quickness was a key to keeping Kerr from beating the Sooners. Blaylock is featured in the current Sports Illustrated issue. He is in prison in Georgia, serving time for felony vehicular murder. The magazine says Blaylock had been arrested seven times for DUI, including six times since 2007. Blaylock played 13 NBA seasons.Β
