Harvey Pollack, who tallied everything from triple-doubles to player tattoos as the mastermind of N.B.A. statistics going back to the league’s creation in 1946, died on Tuesday in Philadelphia. Mr. Pollack, the last still-active N.B.A. team employee from that inaugural season, was 93.

Harvey Pollack

Herbert Harvey Pollack (March 9, 1922 – June 23, 2015) was the director of statistical information for the Philadelphia 76ers. At the time of his death, Pollack held the distinction of being the only individual still working for the NBA since its inaugural 1946-47 season. Because of his proclivity to statistics, then Philadelphia Bulletin writer George Kiseda pinned the moniker of Super Stat on him in 1966.
