Last night, some very sad news came out as the Phoenix Suns issued a statement on their Twitter on the passing of John MacLeod.
We are saddened today to learn of the passing of Suns Ring of Honor member and all-time winningest head coach, John MacLeod. … Coach McLeod was a winner in every sense and will be dearly missed by our entire Phoenix Suns family.
After an 11 year battle with Alzheimer’s, he joins Connie Hawkins and Cotton Fitzsimmons as Ring of Honor members that have passed.
MacLeod was an unknown from Oklahoma that Jerry Colangelo brought in.
