WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - A 6'8" shooting guard from Wake Forest University, Guy Morgan was selected by the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the 1982 NBA Draft. Die-hard fans of ACC basketball in the late 1970s and early 1980s — right before the shot clock and 3-point shot came in— haven't forgotten him. Back then, sportswriters liked to refer to Guy Morgan as "Sky" Morgan.
Morgan could soar for blocked shots or putbacks, but he was steady rather than spectacular in the stat-book. Tacy counted on him for 10 points and seven boards nightly, and he did it while shooting 55 percent on feathery 12-footers. Morgan was team MVP twice and finished his career with 1,128 points and 703 rebounds. He is 12th all-time in the Wake Forest record books with a 58.7 season scoring average from the 1979-80 season and sixth all-time with a 56.4 career field goal percentage from 1979-82. He blocked 182 shots during his time as a Demon Deacon, good for fourth-best in program history.
