A very solid NBA career and a fascinating businessman story. I?m sure he still had a lot he wanted to do in life at 71.

He was a key part of those very solid 80's Bucks teams that always had the misfortune of going up against powerhouse Celtics or Sixers teams.

RIP

His story is a fascinating one.  His post NBA career is pretty legendary.  Ended up a billionaire due to some real savvy business decisions. Owned a bunch of Wendy's & Chili's.  Got involved with Coca-Cola.  One of the wealthiest ex NBA players of all time.  Seemed like a nice guy too.
