On this special episode of B-Ball Radio, Boston and Celtics historian Dart Adams joins Eric Newman, as they celebrate the late great Reggie Lewis, who passed away 32 years ago on July 27, 1993. Over three decades later Reggie's impact is still being felt in Boston and across Celtics nation. Taking the torch from Larry Bird, battling Michael Jordan head-to-head, and becoming one of the best two-way players in the league, Reggie was a rising star on and off the floor as his community presence and generosity was as impressive as his jumper. One of the NBA's greatest what ifs, Reggie became Captain of the Celtics in 1992, before what would shockingly be his final season.
