Basketball's great showmen celebrate their centenary with a world tour, calling into Hungary for three nights, including a gala night at Budapest's Papp László Sportaréna on October 31. Formed in Chicago in 1926, the team was converted into an entertainment phenomenon by Londoner Abe Saperstein, who introduced the three-point shot to the sport and took the Globetrotters to the biggest arenas in America and around the world. With nearly 30,000 exhibition games under their belt in some 125 countries, the former Savoy Big Five can now look forward to their next century.
