Randy Smith, who once owned the National Basketball Association record for consecutive games played, died Thursday at the emergency room of Backus Hospital. He was 60.
Smith was a star small forward in the 1970s for the Buffalo Braves, playing from 1971 through 1983. He averaged 16.7 points, 4.6 assists and 3.7 rebounds.
Smith appeared in 906 NBA games in a row to set an all-time NBA "Ironman" mark before A.C. Green appeared in 1,192 consecutive games from 1986 through 2001.
After seven seasons with Buffalo before the team moved to San Diego, Smith went on to play for Cleveland, New York and Atlanta.
