Chet Walker, a seven-time NBA All-Star known as "The Jet" for his speed, has died at the age of 84, the NBA announced.
In 1969, the Sixers traded Walker to the Bulls. Walker became an integral part of those early Bulls team along with Bob Love, Jerry Sloan and Norm Van Lier.
In his 13-year career, Walker averaged 18.2 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. Of that 1962 draft class, only John Havlicek had more win shares than Walker.
Walker, who went to high school in Benton Harbor, Michigan, before attending Bradley University, was elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2012.
