Haywoode Workman is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on January 23, 1966 in Charlotte, North Carolina, United States. Haywoode Wilvon (born January 23, 1966 in America) is an American ex-basketball player and referee in National Basketball Association (NBA).
Workman was invited to the rookie camp by the Bullets in August 1990. After a day and half, Workman was removed from the court. Workman was unable to attend the WBL playoffs and went AWOL to play with the Bullets while the Express were getting ready. Steve Erhardt, the president of WBL, insisted Workman must retire from WBL in order to take part in camp. He threatened to sue. Workman eventually paid a fine, and he never returned to WBL.
After two years in Italy, he returned to the NBA in 1993 by signing with the Indiana Pacers. He started 52 games for the Indiana Pacers in the 1993–94 season, averaging almost eight points and 6.2 assists during the Pacers’ first trip to the Eastern Conference finals that year. He notched a playoffs career- high 11 assists, and a Pacers’ playoff record seven steals, against the Orlando Magic in Game 1 of the 1994 Eastern Conference first round. Despite the Pacers trading in the summer of 1994 for a more experienced point guard in Mark Jackson, Workman, along with players such as Antonio Davis, Sam Mitchell, and Dale Davis became invaluable to the Pacers’ depth and was integral to the team’s consistent post-season success in the mid to late nineties. However, on November 9, 1996 in a game against Washington Bullets he suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, due to which he missed the remainder of the 1996/97 season (he underwent surgery on November 22) and the entire 1997/98 season. This injury derailed the remainder of his playing career.
Workman finished off his career by playing his final two seasons with the Milwaukee Bucks and Toronto Raptors. He had his best game as a Raptor when he posted team-highs of 19 points (4–8 FG, 10–12 FT), 8 assists and 7 rebounds in a 94–85 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on 3 March 1999. He also spent time playing for Hapoel Jerusalem in Israel, before calling an end to his basketball playing career.
He was 6’2″ tall and played point guard. He also played 359 games between 1989 and 2000 for five NBA teams. His averages were 5.5 points, 3.9 assists, 2.3 rebounding and 1 steal per game. He was also a part of 41 NBA playoff games. His averages were 5.9 points, 4.2 assists, and 2.2 rebounds per match.

Workman was picked 22nd in the second round of the 1989 NBA Draft (49th overall).

Before the following 1991–92 season, Workman signed a two-year, $400K+ per contract with Italian League champion Scavolini Pesaro, which came with the perks of a BMW and a house on the Adriatic Coast. The Bullets gave Workman a qualifying offer of the $120,000 minimum, which could have been a non- guaranteed $250,000 if he made the team. But the writing was on the wall as the Bullets traded for Michael Adams and drafted LaBradford Smith that summer. Workman averaged 15.0 ppg, 4.6 rpg and 1.8 apg in 58 career games in the Italian League.
