As a {{height|ft=6|in=6}} center, he went on to have a highly successful career in college. In his three varsity seasons at the NCAA Division I institution, Rudometkin held career averages of 18.8 points and 10.5 rebounds in 79 games played.[3] He scored 1,434 points, which stood as the school record for 23 years, and his 18.8 average is still the best career average at USC.[4] In 1961, he led the Trojans to an outright conference title, which through 2009–10 remains their most recent outright conference championship.[4] In all three seasons Rudometkin led the team in scoring and was named the team MVP,[4] and as a senior in 1961–62 he was named a consensus second-team All-American. ProfessionalAfter his college career ended, Rudometkin was selected in the second round as the 11th overall pick by the New York Knicks in the 1962 NBA draft.[1] He spent the {{nbay|1962}}, {{nbay|1963}}, and part of the {{nbay|1964}} seasons playing for the Knicks until he was signed as a free agent on February 2, 1965, by the San Francisco Warriors, with whom he subsequently finished the season (and his career).[1] Although Rudometkin played the center position in college, he was moved to play forward in the NBA.[1] In three professional seasons, Rudometkin averaged 6.3 points, 3.1 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game.[1] PersonalAfter only three seasons, Rudometkin was forced to prematurely retire from basketball. His stamina weakened noticeably and doctors could not initially determine the cause.[2] He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a diverse group of blood cancers that include any kind of lymphoma except Hodgkin's lymphoma.[5] He spent years in treatment, which caused total hair loss, temporary paralysis and the need to learn to walk all over again. Rudometkin eventually went into remission and cites both medicine and his faith as reasons why he was able to survive the tumor which had encircled his lungs and heart.[2] After his ordeal, Rudometkin married, had three sons, wrote a book about his experiences and traveled the country as a motivational speaker.[2] He also spent time as a real estate investor and minister.[4] Towards the end of his life, he resided Newcastle, California with his wife of roughly 50 years, and required an oxygen tank to help him breathe.[2] Rudometkin died on August 4, 2015 from chronic lung disease.[6] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Cite web| title = John Rudometkin| work = basketball-reference.com| year= 2010| url =https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/r/rudomjo01.html| accessdate = September 11, 2010}} {{1962 NBA Draft}}{{1962 NCAA Men's Basketball Consensus All-Americans}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Rudometkin, John}}2. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite web| last=Crowe|first=Jerry|title = Former USC basketball star John Rudometkin continues to fight on – for his life| work=The Los Angeles Times | date = May 9, 2010| url = http://articles.latimes.com/2010/may/09/sports/la-sp-crowe-20100510/2| accessdate = September 11, 2010}} 3. ^1 2 {{Cite web| title = John Rudometkin| publisher = TheDraftReview| year = 2010| url = http://www.thedraftreview.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=289&Itemid=5| accessdate = September 11, 2010}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web| title = 2001 Inductees For USC Athletic Hall of Fame Announced| work = usctrojans.com | publisher = CBS Interactive| date = October 28, 2000|format=Press release| url = http://www.usctrojans.com/genrel/102800aaa.html| accessdate = September 11, 2010}} 5. ^{{DorlandsDict|nine/000954456|non-Hodgkin lymphomas}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/sports/usc/uscnow/la-sp-usc-john-rudometkin-obit-20150805-story.html|title=John Rudometkin, USC basketball All-American, succumbs to lung disease at 75|work=Los Angeles Times|date=August 5, 2015|accessdate=August 6, 2015}} 17 : 1940 births|2015 deaths|All-American college men's basketball players|Allan Hancock College alumni|American people of Russian descent|Basketball players from California|Centers (basketball)|Forwards (basketball)|Junior college men's basketball players in the United States|New York Knicks draft picks|New York Knicks players|Parade High School All-Americans (boys' basketball)|People from Newcastle, California|San Francisco Warriors players|Sportspeople from Santa Maria, California|USC Trojans men's basketball players|American men's basketball players |
