The late Wendell Radner was a 6-foot-5-inch forward who competed for five different ABA teams during a six-year stretch (1970 to ’75). He was a member of the New York Net’s 1974-75 ABA Championship team, but didn’t live enough to truly celebrate the accomplishment. He died at the age of 26 in the June 24, 1975, crash of Eastern Airlines Flight #66. He was identified by medical examiners because he was wearing his ABA championship ring
This lot features Ladner’s 1973-75 New York Nets Warm-Up Jacket. The red, Half-zip pullover jacket reads “NETS” in script on the left breast in blue tackle twill outlined in white. It includes ribbed red, white and blue striping around the neck, waistband and both sleeves. The proper Rawlings manufacturer’s tag [size “42”] is stitched to the interior accompanied by a nondescript and severely frayed flag tag.
