After narrowly averting catastrophe in Carroll, Iowa in January of 1960, Bob Short and his Minneapolis Lakers relocate to Los Angeles. Though they would struggle with the extended travel and limited exposure of being out West, the franchise flourished on the back of the late, great Elgin Baylor. This episode chronicles Mr. Baylor's journey from small-time college basketball phenom to the league's first African-American superstar, highlighting a courageous stand in Charleston, West Virginia, where he refused to play because of segregation.
