Hubie Brown's 70-year career in basketball concludes with final broadcast as Bucks defeat 76ers


Hubie Brown has perhaps seen a greater percentage of the history of basketball than any human being that has ever lived. The 91-year-old played his lone professional season for the Eastern Professional Basketball League's Rochester Colonels in 1958, at the same time as Wilt Chamberlain was playing for the Harlem Globetrotters.
