Watts was a guard for the Seattle Super Sonics in the early to mid 70s. Pro sports at that level where somewhat new to the area at the time.
Watts, completely bald before it became fashionable, was easily identifiable by his colorful headbands.
A guard, he led the NBA in steels and assists.
Watts stayed in Seattle after retirement,further endearing him to fans.
I met him about nine years ago at a pub in Redmond Ridge.
