When Sir Charles wore #32

Happy Birthday to Sir Charles Barkley who changed his number from # 34 to # 32 for the ‘91-’92 season to honor his buddy Magic Johnson who would retire before the season after contracting HIV. It would be Chuck’s last year in Philly before heading west to Phoenix. The # 32 had previously been retired by the Sixers for a dude nicknamed ‘The Kangaroo Kid.’ Can you name that Philly Legend?
