While twitter may be a petri dish drowned in the cess pool of life on most days, it’s also the greatest way to share thoughts about a legend.
News broke yesterday that one of the greatest All-Time Phoenix Suns, forward Connie “The Hawk” Hawkins, has passed away at 75 years old just as the expansion team he led in 1968 enters it’s 50th NBA season.
I know you didn’t watch The Hawk when he played for the Suns back in the late 60s. He joined the expansion Phoenix Suns in 1968 when he was 25 years old after stints with the ABL, Globetrotters and ABA.
