Ronald Henry Lee (born November 2, 1952) was an All-American basketball player for the University of Oregon, and epitomized the "Kamikaze Kids" under coach Dick Harter with his all-out, fearless hustle and relentless desire to win.
Born in Boston, Massachusetts, Lee played four seasons for the Ducks between 1972 and 1976.
The Phoenix Suns made him the tenth selection in the NBA draft in 1976.
Despite not playing football in high school and college, the NFL's San Diego Chargers also made him a 12th round selection in the 1976 NFL draft.
In the NBA, Lee was named to the 1977 NBA All-Rookie Team and led the NBA in steals the following season.
Overall, Lee had a solid, but not spectacular career as a reserve, and became a fan favorite because of his effort on the court. Ron Lee is still the all-time leading scorer for the University of Oregon with 2,085 points in his four seasons of play.
He ranks second in career assists with 572, first in field goals (838), and fifth in free throws made (409).
He was first-team All-Pac-8 in all four seasons with the Ducks, and made numerous All-American lists during his final three seasons.
Lee was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1998. After ending his NBA career, Lee played for 3 years in Italy.
