Orlando Melendez Enjoying Life as a Harlem Globetrotter
Posted Mar 2, 2016
Orlando Melendez looks forward to coming back to Charlottesville for Thursday’s Harlem Globetrotters game at John Paul Jones Arena in the time-honored red, white and blue, but he said local ACC fans may remember him in a different jersey. “I’ve been around Cavalier country for a long time,” said Melendez, who wore Carolina blue while playing for UNC.
