Timeline
Battling numerous health issues for years, Jerry Rook died on August 25, 2019, surrounded by family in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
On February 24, 2009, Rook's high school jersey number (#33) was retired at Nettleton. A banner commemorating some of his major achievements was also unveiled and is now a permanent fixture in the gymnasium.
On February 13, 2009, Rook was inducted into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame.
He was drafted by the Baltimore Bullets in the 14th round (1st pick, 97th overall) of the 1965 NBA draft, although he never made any final NBA rosters. Rook's professional career lasted one season (1969–70) as a member of the New Orleans Buccaneers in the relatively new American Basketball Association (ABA). At the time, the maximum salary a player could hope to earn was $65,000 per year. That money, coupled with the decision that he would rather stay close to home without needing to constantly travel, led Rook to forgo any more professional basketball aspirations.
As a true freshman in 1961–62, Rook averaged 19.8 points to lead the team in scoring (a feat he would accomplish for all four years). He averaged 22 points as a sophomore the following season. At the conclusion of that year, however, coach Rauth departed and Rook played the final two seasons under Marvin Speight. Rook averaged 25 points per game as a junior (1963–64) and then 23 as a senior (1964–65).
Rook was born and raised in rural Arkansas. He attended Nettleton High School in Jonesboro. The school system was so small that all elementary, junior high and high school students shared the same three-story school building. As a basketball player for Nettleton, Rook was voted All-Conference and All-District three times (1959–61). He was twice named All-State (1960, 1961) and, his senior season of 1960–61, Scholastic Magazine named him an All-American. Rook was also named the State Tournament MVP that year after his team finished 40–3 and as state champions (he scored 52 points in the state final and 144 points in the state tournament). The previous season, Nettleton had finished as state runners-up.
Jerry G. Rook (October 27, 1943 – August 25, 2019) was an American basketball player, best known for his success at Arkansas State University.
