Lee Green
An All American athlete and a retired NYPD officer known as a “gentle giant”, Lee Green was admired by everyone he came across in his life, gaining praises from coaches, teammates, and his fellow officers. On the basketball court during the 1990s at St. John’s University, Green was known for his ability to play defense, so it seems right he chose a career defending his city. The Bronx native died March 23, 2020 in Brooklyn, NY after contracting the coronavirus. He was 49.
