Archibald, Nate (1948-...), was one of the greatest guards in professional basketball history. He was known for his scoring and his skill as a playmaker and ball handler. Archibald was nicknamed "Tiny" because he was only 6 feet 1 inch tall (185 centimeters) and weighed 160 pounds (73 kilograms), small by basketball standards. But he made up for his lack of size with his quickness and speed.
