The Hawk was one of the greatest ballers to ever cpme out of Brooklyn. The Hawk could palm the ball like a grapefruit. He was high flyer like Dr.J who lost some of his prime years over a b.s. shaving point scandal when he was in college.

RIP Hawk.

Another All Time Great passes on. He's part of a group of under appreciated big time players.

Played in the wrong era...Belonged in the 1980s, IMO. Would have fit in well.

RIP – Connie Hawkins
The Hawk – Dr. J before Dr. J. Too bad they didn’t have Sports Center back in the day, those would be some entertaining clips

Sad news. Never saw him play but read his autobiography a long time ago.
