RIP Meadowlark Lemon

We lost another basketball legend;

Both expert player and entertainer, Lemon was the ringmaster of the team that delighted the world with their court antics. He toured with the Globetrotters, playing more than 16,000 games, including 7,500 consecutively, while performing for heads of states, popes and schoolchildren.

No small feat, and truly a basketball legend. Obviously he's a little older than some of the other players we've lost this year, but sad to hear it all the same. Rest in peace.

RIP, pioneer.
