The Harlem Globetrotters have entertained audiences with their slick moves and pretty dunks since 1926. For 82 years the team, also known as “The Ambassadors of Goodwill,” has boasted a number of basketball legends. Wilt Chamberlain, Reese Tatum and Robert “Showboat” Hall have donned the red, white and blue jersey, making it the uniform of greats. This Saturday they are gracing the basketball court of the Prairie Capital Convention Center to prove they still have game. Stars like Special K and Scooter display their talent with tricks and moves like spinning the ball on their heads and half-court shots. This new generation of Globetrotters has talent, and they’re as much fun as ever.
