HutchFan Posted June 8, 2016 Report Posted June 8, 2016 Nice story. Thanks for sharing, Paul. I follow basketball, but I'd never heard of him. Quote
JSngry Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 Never thought about it, but somebody had to have been George Mikan's coach. Quote
uli Posted June 9, 2016 Report Posted June 9, 2016 He is about 25 years younger than basketball itself. Quote
paul secor Posted June 9, 2016 Author Report Posted June 9, 2016 I lived outside Minneapolis when I was very young and knew the names of the players on the Lakers great teams. Also vaguely knew of John Kundla by name. I had no idea that he was still alive. Great that he still follows and loves the game at almost 100 years of age. Quote
