Basketball Nation

'Basketball Nation' is a lyrical journey through the History of Basketball from its origin at The Springfield YMCA in December of 1891, to the on-court heroics of the current day Superstars LeBron James, The Joker, The Splash Brothers, Caitlin Clark and Victor Wembanyama. Basketball Nation is a blueprint for middle school, high school students as well as parents, educators and coaches. Encouraging everyone to read, learn and embrace this global sport that has reached every corner of the world. With over 100 references, text and illustrations, Basketball Nation should be found in every school library, youth program, bookstore throughout the planet. Between the academic, literary and entertainment worlds there is an important and organic place for Basketball Nation to become a major part of our current ever-growing hoops culture.
