Billed as the “Call to the Hall,” the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame will honor Richmond native and former NBA star Bobby Dandridge on Jan. 19 in Virginia Beach.

The event was rescheduled from Nov. 16.

Festivities will begin at 7 p.m. at Zeiders American Dream Theater, 4509 Commerce St. in Virginia Beach. Tickets start at $15; $30 for an autograph and photo with Dandridge.

Dandridge, now 74, starred in basketball at Maggie L. Walker High School in Richmond and at Norfolk State University before embarking on a brilliant NBA career. He was a four-time All- Star and helped the Milwaukee Bucks and Washington to NBA championships.

“The Greyhound,” as Dandridge was known, was inducted into the Virginia Hall of Fame in 1992. Earlier this year, he was elected into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
