Cal Bruton

Calvin "Cal" Bruton (born 29 September 1954) is a former player and coach in the Australian National Basketball League (NBL). Originally an American import, but in 1983 becoming a naturalised Australian, Bruton has been an integral part of the league since its inception. As a result, Bruton became one of the first inductees into the NBL Hall of Fame when it opened in 1998. Bruton's son Calvin Bruton Jr., better known as C. J. Bruton, played in the NBL and became successful in his own right winning six NBL Championships with three teams (Sydney Kings, Brisbane Bullets and New Zealand Breakers) between 2004 and 2013.
