Fascinating Wayne Embry Article

Wayne Embry was the Milwaukee Bucks General Manager starting in 1971 until well into the glory days of the 1980's and was the first African-American General Manager in all of pro sports in America.

I just read this fascinating article about Wayne Embry that was up over at Hoops Hype.
It's extremely detailed and covers a huge expanse of Bucks timeline and history from Embry's point of view from the Kareem Abdul Jabbar trade to the drafting of Super Sidney Moncrief.
It's a very candid and off the record account of the franchise from an amazing NBA executive.

Great stuff.
