Harlem Globetrotter Slick Willie Shaw will dribble and spin basketballs over the Charlestown Bridge today.
He will start in front of the Bunker Hill Monument at noon, travel part of the Freedom Trail, and finish about 45 minutes later at the basketball courts at DeFilippo Playground—a stretch of nearly one mile.
