Red Klotz

Unread post by ramster »

93 years old
I always enjoyed watching Red lead the Washington Generals against the Globetrotters

He is one of six people to have his jersey retired by the Globetrotters, joining Curly Neal (No. 22), Goose Tatum (No. 50), Marques Haynes (No. 20), Meadowlark Lemon (No. 36) and Wilt Chamberlain (No. 13) as those to receive the distinction.

The current Sixers organization seems to be following his model.
