Orphaned at just thirteen in a still-segregated Washington, D.C., George Raveling was introduced to a relatively unpopular sport—basketball—in high school. The rest, as they say, is history. Raveling went on to become one of the winningest coaches of all time, a mentor to legendary athletes, and a confidant of the sport’s greatest coaches, including Bob Knight and John Wooden. He convinced Michael Jordan to collaborate with Nike on the Air Jordan. He led the 1984 U.S. men’s Olympic team to their ninth gold medal.

The incredible experiences George Raveling had in 87 years of life. Amazing.

Terrific book about Raveling’s amazing journey from being raised by his grandmother to his introduction to basketball, where he got a scholarship to Villanova. A tense racial situation at a college game that connected him with Jerry West for life. How he came to gain possession of MLK’s notes for the “I Have A Dream” speech. And that’s well before he became a coach and Nike executive. You can’t make this life up.
