Willie Davis came.
If anything summarizes the success and meaning of the 50th ABA Reunion, that should do it.
You probably haven't heard of Davis. Why would you? Davis played in eight games for the Texas Chaparrals during the 1970-71 season, scoring 18 points before history tossed him into the dust bin, a forgettable career ended.
As far as Davis and all the people who attended the reunion were concerned however, he might as well have been Julius Erving. Time is the greatest equalizer, and with each passing year health and memory become greater assets than vertical jumps and shooting touches.
