Contest: Give us Akron's all-time five

Basketball fans from Akron, Ohio, will tell you their all-time NBA starting five can match up with any other city in the league -- and perhaps they have a case.

Not bad for a mid-sized Midwestern American city.

Can you name five players from Akron who played in the NBA?

Yes, we know -- that's what the Internet is for.

But in order to win the particular contest, you must be the first to name five players WHO COMPLETED THEIR HIGH SCHOOL CAREER in Akron. (Sorry, Steph Curry, born in Akron, but finishing in Charlotte, doesn't count.)

Leave your answer in the comments section below, and the first person to do so correctly wins the T-shirt of their choice under $30 available at the Fanatics ad right here. Any player, any team, any color. There are are literally hundreds from which to choose.

Ready, set ... and answer. Winner will be announced Tuesday.
