Death of a Basketball Player

When I was a kid, my father took us to see the Harlem Globetrotters.  It was a really fun experience.  He even went out of his way to get an autograph for us.  Over the years, I would catch them on TV.  I may have also brought my girls, but I can not remember.  I was saddened to see that Meadowlark Lemon had died.  I looked to see if he was on the team when we saw him as children, but he was not.
