Description
"An award-winning journalist's behind-the-scenes account from the epicenter of sports, social justice, and coronavirus, 'Can't Knock the Hustle' is a lasting chronicle of the historic 2019-2020 NBA season, by way of the notorious Brooklyn Nets and basketball's renaissance as a cultural force beyond the game."--
Description
In the 2019-2020 season, the Nets were already the most intriguing startup in the NBA : a team of influencers, entrepreneurs and activists, starring the controversial Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Then one tweet launched an international scandal, pitting the team's Chinese owner and the league's commissioner against its players and LeBron James. The sudden death of Kobe Bryant, after making his final public appearance in Brooklyn, sent shockwaves through a turbulent season. A global pandemic and a new civil-rights movement put basketball's trend-setting status to the ultimate test, as business and culture followed the lead of the NBA and its empowered stars. Sullivan provides a backdrop of the NBA's impact on social media, race, politics, health, fashion, fame and fandom, for a portrait of a time when sports brought us back together again, like never before. -- adapted from jacket
