Bill Russell’s life and legacy were unlike any other in NBA history: 11-time NBA champion, twice as a player/coach (the first Black head coach in any major American professional sport), someone who changed the game using his athleticism and high IQ on defense, but more important than all that he was a civil rights icon who marched with Martin Luther King Jr. and stood up to racism in Boston and around the nation at the height of the civil rights movement.
