Notes
[edit | edit source]- ^ Halliburton's games started is officially listed at zero, because according to Basketball Reference, the 1972–73 76ers tracked games started while other teams had not yet. His starts with the Atlanta Hawks are unrecorded. Therefore, Halliburton's zero career starts is based off the only aforementioned confirmable stats with the 76ers.[4]
