An basketball themed geography film.

Recently I recalled a film I saw in grade school several times back in the 80's. It was on a reel projector and it was an educational film on geography featuring some basketball star; don't know which one but he was a black guy and must have been some kind of big deal when the film was made. The whole thing was a series of fun skits pertaining to elementary level geography, I think there was a chimpanzee in it and there was this one short part I think was called 'The Adventures of Lat and Long'. Does anyone else remember this?
