There have been white Globetrotters. Their white coach and owner Abe Saperstein occasionally suited up for games. There were also free-throw master Bunny Leavitt and the 7'7" Englishman Paul Sturgess. The most famous, though, was Bob Karstens, who not only played but is credited with developing sone of their routines such as the magic circle and the yo-yo ball. After his playing days he helped manage the team.

Records show there have been three players of white colour, which is why extra care was taken to ensure the word "more" was used in case some people thought there were none

Maybe they didn't count Saperstein since he owned the team.

Correct, he wasn't counted as a fully employed player as he was the Owner and Coach who could have hired more whites if he wanted to but didn't. Today's Democrat mob must surely see this as Racist

I don't care what color they are, as long as they are talented and fun to watch. It's not the Globetrotters fault that white man can't jump :P

I dunno, would it still be funny? (I haven't seen them since I was a kid, but they did make me laugh back then.)
