We all remember The Harlem Globetrotters, right?
And, of course the most famous, with a 30 year stint (and favorite son of North Carolina) was the aptly named, Curly Neal.
It seems Curly fathered a son years ago that hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves: One of the stars of NBC’s “Las Vegas” ( – though he changed his name to an all-too-obvious stage name), James Lesure.


Did you ever see the Harlem Globetrotters cartoon? It was awesome. A player would dribble out of the window of the team bus as they drove around solving mysteries and playing phat hoops. Classic.
I knew it was his son when I first saw the show.
