The Logo

There may be no single person who had a greater career in a professional sport than Jerry West had in the NBA. He was an awesome player. He was a remarkably effective executive. And he was a driven competitor who won and won and won. It makes sense that a silhouette of him playing basketball is the league’s official logo. So long to Mr. Clutch, The Logo, and Zeke from Cabin Creek. NYT (Gift Article): Jerry West, One of Basketball’s Greatest Players, Dies at 86.
