John Shumate Autographs
John Henry Shumate (April 6, 1952 – February 3, 2025) was an American professional basketball player and coach. He played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the Phoenix Suns, Buffalo Braves, Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, and Seattle SuperSonics from 1975 to 1981. His playing career was cut short by recurring issues with blood clots. Shumate was the head coach for the Grand Canyon Antelopes and SMU Mustangs and an assistant coach for the Toronto Raptors of the NBA and Phoenix Mercury of the WNBA.
Shumate, the son of minister Eugene and Margaret Shumate, was born on April 6, 1952, in Greenville, South Carolina. He grew up in Elizabeth, New Jersey. He and his four sisters were raised in a religious household. Shumate's parents were his inspiration in basketball and in life.
Shumate played high school basketball at the all-male Thomas Jefferson High School, scoring over 1,000 points in his career. He only started playing basketball as a high school sophomore, after he had grown to 6 ft 5 in (1.96 m) and coach Ron Kelly convinced him to try out for the team. Under Kelly's training and tutelage, he was on the varsity team by the second half of the season. Shumate went on to become a high school All-American in his senior year. He starred in the Sonny Hill League in Philadelphia.
