The first-year finalists for induction include:
Marques Johnson, five-time NBA All-Star who also won national player of the year awards at UCLA under John Wooden Jack Sikma, seven-time NBA All-Star with the Seattle Supersonics Ben Wallace, four-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year with the Pistons Paul Westphal, five-time NBA All-Star with the Phoenix Suns
The finalists who have previously received consideration are:

Of those I know about, I'd vote for
Marquis Johnson, John Wooden's last great player Sidney Moncrief, truly exceptional player for Arkansas
Two who would deserve inclusion are Chris Webber and Eddie Sutton. But both have skeletons in their closets. I know, who doesn't, but the other aren't as prominent.
Can't comment on HS coaches and NBA players
