[2] He played with the Baltimore Bullets before being traded along with Stan Miasek to the Milwaukee Hawks for Don Boven, Pete Darcey and George McLeod.

His full name was Davage Minor, but Gary, Indiana sportswriters called him "The Wheelhorse of Steel City."

He began shooting the first jumpers seen around the Great Lakes in December 1937 in his high school gym in Gary.

By 1941, the shot was so unstoppable he used it to take the Froebel High School Blue Devils all the way to the Final Four of the Indiana state tournament, the "mother of them all."
