The Seattle Sonics had many great players come through their organization. One of the greatest to suit up in the green and gold is Hall of Famer Gary Payton. Payton had multiple phenomenal years for Seattle in his time in the NBA. In 1996, Payton led the Sonics to their best record in franchise history at 64-18. That year he helped Seattle to their first NBA Finals appearance since 1979. Payton was not only the Sonics offensive facilitator, but he also was one of the greatest defensive point guards in the NBA. His outstanding skillset earned nine different All-Star appearances. The super star point guard will go down as one of the greatest in franchise history.
