Five-time MVP. Member of the Hall of Fame. Recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Legend. And a champion, always. Bill Russell changed the game of basketball - and his commitment to standing up for social justice and inspiring generations makes him a giant of our game, on and off the court. We are united in grief with the NBA, and send our deepest condolences to Mr. Russell’s family and to the @celtics Rest in Power, @realbillrussell
