Billy McKinney Biography

Billy McKinney is a retired American professional basketball player, former radio broadcaster, and the mayor of Zion, Illinois.

A 6'0" guard, McKinney attended Zion-Benton High School where he played for Mo Tharp (long time Fremd coach), and Northwestern University, where he was the Wildcats' all-time leading scorer for 35 years, until 2012. From 1978 to 1986, McKinney played in the National Basketball Association as a member of the Kansas City Kings, Utah Jazz, Denver Nuggets, San Diego Clippers, and Chicago Bulls. He averaged 8.0 points per game and 3.5 assists per game in his NBA career. Due to his quickness, he was nicknamed "The Crazed Hummingbird."

Over a 30 year period, McKinney established himself as one of the most experienced and versatile executives in the NBA -- as a player, scout, assistant coach, administrator, and consultant, as well as an on-air analyst for several teams’ television and radio broadcasts.

McKinney was elected as Zion's mayor in April 2019.
