Way before my time, but I collect early Basketball and have always appreciated his story. I think I'm holding 4-5 of his rookie cards just hoping that he'll make the HOF and they will get a little bump in value! Just being honest...

Either way, its an important card in the 1948 set and I love the action shot. Notice how players dribbled from the top of the ball, almost slapping down, in the early era, as opposed to "carrying" the ball in today's game.
