This guy was literally the best all-time scorer. Add up his Pts scored for club and country. He scored almost 50,000 points.
At the time, NBA players didn't play for their National team. Schmidt didn't want to give up his allegiance for home nation Brazil. So, he didn't play in the NBA.
Truly one of the best players of his time. When it came to Team USA competing against foreigners, Oscar was "the guy."
RIP, my man.
