Black Basketball History Month!... Hoopster Of The Week!...Nate Thurman!

  

The 'Hoopster Of The Week'

for this week 

goes to: 

the Big Black Man, 6-11, 225, who is the first 

player in history, and one of only four, to achieve a 

quadruple-double, 22 points, 14 rebounds, 

13 assists, 12 blocked shots,  and in 

another game he had 18 rebounds 

in one quarter, while scoring almost 

15,000 career points and grabbing almost 15,000 

career rebounds, and the center and power forward 

was named one of the 50 Greatest Players in 

NBA History, and once grabbed 42 

rebounds in one game, plus he was 

'swished' into the HOF in 1985,

and so much more...

...Nate Thurman!

Nate had a 

prominent vertical mid-upper-lip

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus).

and hold high, with cheer, the untold 

numbers of International Black Men

that made us go, "Wow!...Whoa!...

...and...OMGosh!" in their nonstop, 

valiant, and always surprising, 

individual and team 

efforts to put the ball through the 

hoop the most, to win games and 

championships!
