From one Hall of Famer to another.
Earlier on Thursday, it was announced by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame that legendary head coach Eddie Sutton, who passed away in May 2020 at the age of 84, would be inducted into the famous group of the game’s most important people. Even though Sutton will not be there to accept the honor himself, he’ll have a trio of figures in attendance to present the important recognition, including current Kentucky head coach John Calipari.
Michael Jordan will present Kobe Bryant in the 2020 Naismith Hall of Fame @Hoophall induction ceremony on May 15.
