We, the NBA family just learned this afternoon that Bill Russell, the 11-time champion and Hall of Fame icon of the Boston Celtics, who used that fame to further the civil rights cause in the United States during the turbulent 1960s, has died at the age of 88. He will be missed. Thank you for all of the advices and mentorship when came to the league. You were there for me after every game. RIP my man 💔💔💔.
