I reffed David Lucas for many years in our local kids rec league. He's Maurice Lucas' son and was all Pac-10 twice at Oregon State. He's now the very successful owner of a basketball camp.
Also, although they weren't future players but former players, I once reffed a "charity" game between the Portland Trailblazer "Alumni Team" and a bunch of P.E. teachers from my local HS to raise money for the sports programs at the HS. The Blazers provided a team of former players to play games to raise funds for charities and non-profits. So, that afternoon in the HS gym, I officiated Bob Gross, Larry Steele, Kevin Kunnert and Kenny Carr, among some others I don't remember. It was a blast. I already knew Kunnert because he coached his daughters in our local kids rec program. He gave me a hard time just for the fun of it and we both laughed.
Oh yeah - I worked the game by myself! And yes, I donated my time.
