Hubie Brown was awarded the game ball in one last sweet sendoff after his final NBA broadcast

Hubie Brown’s incredible 52 year career has finally come to a close. He’s impacted so many people on and off the court both on the sidelines and in the broadcast booth over these last five decades.

That shows in all the love he received from so many people today during his final broadcast on ESPN.

Even after the game, though, he got one more moment in the sun.

Officials came up to Brown after all the action ended to shake his hand one last time and award him with the game ball. It was too sweet.

What a way to send Hubie off.  Good on the NBA for doing this.
