We say happy birthday to the great Oscar Robertson. He was born in Tennessee on this day in 1940.
I got to watch him in Milwaukee when he led the Bucks to the 1970-71 NBA title.
The "Big O" broke with the Cincinnati Royals (now Sacramento Kings) in 1960-61. He played 10 seasons there and averaged 29.3 points.
Then he went to Milwaukee where he got to play with Lew Alcindor and win a title.
Great player!
