Art Heyman (D. 2012) as an American professional basketball player. Playing for Duke University in college, in 1963 he was USBWA Player of the Year, AP Player of the Year, UPI Player of the Year, Sporting News Player of the Year, Helms Foundation College Player of the Year, a consensus first-team All-American, ACC Player of the Year, and ACC Athlete of the Year. That year he was the first overall pick in the first round of the 1963 NBA draft. He went on to have a 310-game professional career in the NBA and ABA.  He played for the Knicks, Cincinnati Royals, Philadelphia 76ers, New Jersey Americans, Pittsburgh & Minnesota Pipers, and Miami Floridians.  He was a member of the Pipers ABA championship team.

Offered is a signed 8.5” x 11” photo of Heyman in Knicks uniform signed in blue sharpie pen.  This was obtained through a private signing.  We believe this was done at the same private signing that celebrated the first ABA championship Pittsburgh Pipers.
