College basketball greats, including Sam Perkins, celebrated in Kansas City

Posted Nov 20, 2018
On Sunday in downtown Kansas City, the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame celebrated its class of 2018. "I can't put it into words," said former North Carolina legend Sam Perkins, who helped lead the Tar Heels to a national championship. "I think that life in college was the best set of four years that I have had. I was more prepared in so many ways when I left." (KSHB)
