Subject: Celtics Great Bill Russell Dies at 88

Written By: Indy Gent on 07/31/22 at 1:04 pm

It is with great sorrow that Bill Russell, a legendary NBA star in the 60s, has passed on at the age of 88. From his college days at San Francisco to his Celtics reign as player and head coach, Russell's 11 championship wins might never be equaled. He will be missed.

Yes, he was an all-around great guy. Not just on the court, but elsewhere too. RIP Bill :\'(

He is not to be confused with another sport figure with this name - the former longtime Dodgers player and coach who replaced Tommy Lasorda as Dodgers manager. That guy is still around.

11 championships as a player
Classy and intelligent man, very well spoken.
Always in the conversation as the greatest player of all time
Tough day today , losing Mr Russell and Nichelle Nichols
