Legendary Seattle Coach Lenny Wilkens Passes Away at 88—Uncover the Legacy That Changed Basketball Forever
However, Wilkens may be better remembered as a coach — he is third on the all-time coaching wins list and was the head coach in Seattle when the Sonics won the title in 1979. Wilkens loved Seattle and was deeply invested in the city, beyond coaching a basketball team.
“Lenny probably doesn’t even know that without him, I’m not here,” said an emotional Sacramento coach Doug Christie, who grew up in the Seattle Area.
“He was an unbelievable man. Just an incredible man … ” said Steve Kerr, who played for Wilkens for three seasons in Cleveland. “What I remember most is just the dignity. You know, he was just such a dignified human being and great leader through kind of this quiet confidence.”
