When you dig up old game highlights from the archives, he jumps through the screen. Stealing the ball here, scooping the ball underhand for a basket there, making passes, leading the break.

Love your videos of the often forgotten heroes around us ❤

I remember Slick Watts vividly. I didn't quite know where Seattle was at the time, but I knew Slick.
I wish nothing but the best for the family.

Stay strong Watts family. Continue the legacy.
