Marques Haynes (March 10, 1926 – May 22, 2015) was an American professional basketball player and member of the Harlem Globetrotters, notable for his remarkable ability to dribble the ball and keep it away from defenders. According to the 1988 film ''Harlem Globetrotters: Six Decades of Magic'',〔(''Harlem Globetrotters: Six Decades of Magic'' (1988) )〕 Haynes could dribble the ball as many as six times a second. ==Early playing days== As a child, Haynes learned to dribble a basketball in the dirt yard of his home. A native of Sand Springs, Oklahoma, he attended Booker T. Washington High School and received a $25 church scholarship to play basketball for Langston University, where he attended from 1942 to 1946. During his time with the Langston Lions, the team racked up a winning record of 112–3, including a 59-game winning streak. In a February 1945 conference tournament game, Haynes showed off his dribbling skills for more than two minutes, running down the clock on a solid lead to ridicule an opponent, Southern University, which had run up the score against an inferior team (Sam Huston College, later Huston-Tillotson University, coached by a young Jackie Robinson) in a previous round.〔〔("Jackie Robinson, College Basketball Coach )." ''Austin American-Statesman'', April 15, 1997.〕 Haynes' own coach, the legendary Zip Gayles, threatened to kick him off the team for his showboating display,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Oklahoma Hall of Fame )〕 but it got an immense response from the crowd at the game.〔 In 1946, Langston was invited to play an exhibition game against the Globetrotters in Oklahoma City. In that game, Haynes led Langston to a 4-point win, catching the eye of team owner Abe Saperstein in the process. He was invited to join the Globetrotters, and, after completing his degree, began his long professional career.〔
