Basketball HOF Induction (Baseball HOF Connection)

[Shoebox]

I knew Hubbard and Posey weren't inducted as players but induction in any capacity to two HOF in different pursuits (not overlapping such as NCAA and Pro for the same sport) is really remarkable.

I believe there are a handful of people that have won both an Oscar and a Grammy. Which would be somewhat comparable.

Posey was inducted as an executive (team owner of the Homestead Grays) into the BB HOF, so there is still no one inducted as a player into more than one of the four HOFs.

There are 12 people who have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony:

Richard Rodgers, Helen Hayes, Rita Moreno, John Gielgud, Audrey Hepburn, Marvin Hamlisch, Jonathan Tunick, Mel Brooks, Mike Nichols, Whoopi Goldberg, Scott Rudin and Robert Lopez.

4 others won all four, but included special or honorary awards: Barbra Streisand, Liza Minnelli, James Earl Jones and Harry Belafonte.
