Hall of Famer Al Attles, Warriors legend and title-winning coach, dies at 87

OAKLAND — Al Attles, who coached the Warriors to the greatest upset in NBA Finals history as part of more than six decades with the franchise, died on Tuesday at his East Bay home. He was 87.

Hard-nosed on the court but engaging in the community, Attles joined the Warriors as a player in 1960 and never left. His 64 uninterrupted seasons with the team marked the longest active streak in the NBA, a stretch that saw him enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2019 as a contributor to the game.
