He was supposed to play in another exhibition game, I believe, against the Cleveland Cavaliers. But Pete couldn't play because his mother committed suicide. I went to that game if I remember right.

I was a huge 76ers fan years back as a kid, and lived in BR. My parents took me to a sixer-jazz exhibition at the centroplex back in 1979. Pete didn't play much, I think he was coming off a severe knee injury, and of course that was before the modern surgical procedures we have now.
