Episode 292 – Charles “Tarzan” Cooper

Charles “Tarzan” Cooper was the best center of the 1930s. He was only 6’3, but a hundred years ago that meant you were a big man. He played the center position like few others and scored almost at will. He also helped lead his team to the 1939 World Basketball Championship, an integrated tournament that brought in the best teams around.
