Bill Takes It All In
Date: 1967
Bill Russell never sat on the bench much. Over his career, Russell averaged 42.29 minutes played per game, the second-highest mark all-time just behind Wilt Chamberlain. “It’s about taking whatever your skills are and using them as best as you can, for as much time as you can,” Russell explained.
