sad news, RIP.

stalemonkey30 · 03-22-2021, 02:14 PM

All of the Baylors on my watch list miraculously sold today.

rifleman69 · 03-22-2021, 02:25 PM

Heck of a player for the Lake-Show. RIP

mondogenerator · 03-22-2021, 02:31 PM

RIP Mr Inside.

WillC · 03-22-2021, 02:54 PM

Absolutely gutted to hear this news. One of the best to ever play the game.

49ersSF · 03-22-2021, 03:28 PM

Elgin had a 3 year stretch where he averaged 35 points 18 rebounds and 5 assists. One of the most underrated hall of famers ever. RIP

Deadshot · 03-22-2021, 05:06 PM

RIP Elgin. It's a shame he got hurt before the Lakers won a title

Thank you! It has a little wear on the surface and maybe a small wrinkle. I was very happy when I found it.

Yankees2020 · 03-22-2021, 08:19 PM

Wow, this is terrible news! I got to meet Elgin, and he was the sweet most gentle person you could ever meet. What a shame... rest in peace!

byronscott4ever · 03-22-2021, 08:30 PM

I feel like I met him when I was chasing ‘graphs at the 94 AS game—auto is on a Hoops checklist with random others

Beavers98 · 03-22-2021, 08:57 PM

RIP Elgin Baylor.

JEA2880 · 03-22-2021, 10:29 PM

Wow I can't believe I didn't see this! Another legend gone too soon...

vthobby · 03-23-2021, 12:03 AM

One of the faves in my set!

RIP Elgin, still can't fathom his 1960-61 stats 19.8 RPG with 34.8 PPG!

Peace, Mike

PS Sorry for the huge photo, I'm still learning how to size them! ugh

Just saw the Sportscenter story on him. I am embarrassed I did not know much about him or how absolutely dominant/amazing he was.

R.I.P.

If he were playing today his Prizm 10s would be thousands and thousands of bucks.

Melagoo · 03-23-2021, 10:07 AM

Elgin Baylor was Dr. J's Idol ... Rest in Paradise Elgin

Mahomie · 03-23-2021, 10:09 AM

Rest in Peace

Spicoli · 03-24-2021, 09:32 PM

Was it the shot that did it like Hank and Hagler?
