Russell won two (02) NCAA titles at the University of San Francisco, an Olympic Gold Medal in Melbourne, Australia in 1956, and of course 11 titles during his 13 seasons in the NBA with the Celtics.

For my money ... he's the best ever.

I'm asking that this item be picked up in-person.  Shipping just seems inherently too dangerous, in terms of damage.  If you are in Atlanta, Georgia, then I can meet you halfway -- at the Buc-ee's parking lot just south of Macon.  Otherwise, you'll have to come to Valdosta, Georgia, for the pickup.

Enjoy !!
