I submitted a lot of the early High School attended data and I had East Orange HS. I do have in my notes from meeting w/Monte on one of his visits to Denver a dozen years ago or so that he had played (somewhere, I don't know where) under an assumed name - Jimmy Nelson - from East Orange, NJ. This was presumably to protect his college eligibility when he attended Lincoln University in Pennsylvania. I have a faint memory that he took the name of a friend, perhaps a former teammate or rival player from EAST Orange HS, I believe. I had hoped to dig around for a boxscore, but never came up with any hits.. I figure if anyone can find it, it would be either of you two guys. Good luck. I'll submit this link to bugs@bbref and I suspect you'll see that Hans or Sean will change it pronto.

I wonder if he transferred?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
