Napoli Basketball extends its deepest and most heartfelt condolences on the passing of Donald Arvid Nelson, a legendary figure in the game who enjoyed a distinguished playing career with the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics.
Throughout his remarkable coaching career, he led the Milwaukee Bucks, New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, and Golden State Warriors. In 1994, as head coach of the United States national team, he guided Team USA to the gold medal at the FIBA World Championship held in Canada.
