Marques Haynes is regarded as the greatest ball handler in basketball history. For over four decades, his dribbling and passing entertained millions in over 12,000 games in 97 countries around the world. After a stellar career at Langston University where he led his school to a 112-3 record including a 59-game winning streak, Haynes joined the Harlem Globetrotters in 1946. He played with the Globetrotters through 1953 and again from 1972-79. Haynes also founded and played for the Harlem Magicians (1953-72 and 1983-97). In addition to the Basketball Hall of Fame, he is a member of five other halls of fame. Zinc-Etched medallion. In excellent condition; black background slightly chipped on middle left side.
