Why Cliff Hagan ranks #124 in Basketball
Cliff Hagan ranks 124th among Basketball athletes on GOAT Rank and 744th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 78, Honours 82, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Basketball reference universe of 402 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1956–1970 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1959, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes nba championships 1, all-star selections 5, all-nba selections 2, career points 13447.
Immediately ahead sits DeMar DeRozan on 81.7, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Ricky Rubio on 81.7. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
