Contest time!

Kenny Dennard was a colorful fellow.  He was a forward on the 1977-78 Duke team which lost in the National Championship game to Kentucky.  Bill Foster was the coach in that game.  Dennard played on a team which was a mix of grizzled veterans, like Mike Gminski and Jim Spanarkel and two brash freshman, one from South Philly and the other from a small town in Western North Carolina

The freshman were Gene "Tinkerbell" Banks (a story for another day) and a young man from King, N.C.

Anyhow, he is the subject of this trivia contest.  The first person to answer correctly wins two months of premium access and your name in lights;)

Here is your first chance.  You must answer both questions correctly.

What sensational record does Kenny Dennard own?  

... and what two NBA teams did he play for?
