Pro basketball legend Bill Russell was honored at Sunday night's NBA All-Star Game in New Orleans for his 80th birthday (which was February 12th), as players and fans sang him "Happy Birthday" before the start of the second quarter.
After the serenade, players on the East and West All-Star squads came over to Russell to personally greet him and give their best wishes in a heartfelt moment.
