Kentucky great Cotton Nash and sons bound by love of family, sports

The successes they've had in their lives — in sports, law and the arts — have made their names and faces well known to many.

Charles "Cotton" Nash, Patrick Nash and J. Richey Nash.

What might not be well known to many people is that they are family.

Cotton Nash, one of the greatest University of Kentucky basketball players of all time and who went on to play professional basketball and baseball, is the father of Patrick Nash and J. Richey Nash. Patrick Nash has made a name for himself throughout Central and Eastern Kentucky as a defense attorney in high-profile criminal cases. J. Richey Nash is a former professional baseball player, and now an actor and filmmaker.

Family, not fame, seems to dominate their lives.
