I would say Ewing, Pearl and Chris Mullin really made it special but there were so many great players.

There was never a player who could break Georgetowns full court press all by himself except.. Pearl Washington.. And he made it look easy

Thanks for this tribute TNT. RIP Pearl and thank you for so much fun. You are missed.

I think Kenny's assessment of his pro career is accurate...

In HS he had an interesting style because he would utilize old school, back to the defender type moves mixed with modern shake -n-bake and crossover moves. He actually could dunk with ease in high school. When he got to college he didn't quite have the explosiveness he used to have, but was still very quick with a tremendous basketball IQ and he all but abandoned the old school back to defender stuff for stuff that was well ahead of its day. Not a great shooter, but a great clutch shooter. He was a real life Bugs Bunny as a basketball player and he made all of the defenders look like a bunch of Elmer Fudd's and Yosemite Sam's and after scoring a basket or giving a great assist, he'd jog down the court with a smile on his face as to say 'Ain't I a stinker?' I don't know if he was the most electrifying college player ever, but he was the most fun. In particular because he exuded a likeable personality and it made it easier to derive joy from watching him leaving those Elmer Fudd's and Yosemite Sam's in his dust.

Shake in bake. My uncle Dwayne Pearl Washington 😊❤

Legend. RIP Pearl.

What a great heartfelt tribute.

Shaq said they called him Pac-Man they way he used to gobble everyone up. As I remember from Pearls HS days at boys and girls, the newspaper dubed him that, the way he used to gobble up points. It was nothing to read the New York Daily News and see in the sports section Pac-Man gobbles 55 points. One of the greatest point guards out of NYC...rip

Charles and Pearl were both All Americans(Pearl was All conference) and Bobby Knight surprisingly cut both off the 1984 Olympic team

Principal Mickens take that HAT off

I met him My freshman year at Boys and Girls High...

He was the best entertainer of all time in college basketball......Gene Smith of Georgetown was hands down the best defender in college ball at da time ,guys were scared to bring the ball up against him and as a FR at the BIG EAST tournament he destroyed Gene Smith and when u c the you tube high lites they show only 1 play on Gene Smith but it was an all night thing of embarrassment for Gene Smith .... so bad during a commercial break Gene Smith own teammates was laughing at him during time outs......it was unreal how good Pearl Was
