Dickau grew up in the Portland area as a fan of the Trail Blazers and Walton
From leading the Portland Trail Blazers to the 1977 NBA Championship to impacting millions of basketball fans as a color commentator on TV, Bill Walton left an indelible mark on countless people, including Dan Dickau. Walton died Monday at the age of 71.
“You were just kind of awestruck about how good of a player he was,” Dickau said. “He didn’t worry about stats. He worried about what was going to be impactful for his team in that possession. He was just so unbelievably talented and skilled.”
