UCLA Bruins legend Bill Walton made waves as a player and as a broadcaster, although his broadcasting career might go down as one of the best in history.
His best quotes, calls, and moments circulated after the unfortunate news of his passing on Memorial Day. Walton’s Chewbacca moment with Dave Pasch went viral, as did his winning a car on Wheel of Fortune (yes, really).
Andy Patton of College Sports Wire listed the best 10 calls of Bill Walton’s career as a broadcaster, and it had plenty of memorable moments. There are so many to choose from, but here is the top spot on College Sports Wire’s list.

Bill Walton was a national treasure on all fronts, and his time as a broadcaster was as magnificent as ever. His colorful attitude and generous heart will also be remembered by everybody, but this cupcake moment behind the mic is a classic.
