Re: Death of another NBA star
I had the opportunity to chat & play in pickup games with him a couple times, when he was working out at Valley College in the San Fernando Valley, CA. way back when.....He was a good guy and taught me a couple pretty cool things about hoops during our brief court time. Man, could he jump too! So, that's 3 ex-Bulls players I've come in contact with in the past that have passed away R.I.P "Mr. Hops"!
