| Book Description | The memoir of sports writer Boti Nagy, who grew up in awe of his basketball-playing heroes before injury prematurely ended his own burgeoning sporting career, which opened the door for a life in journalism and a 43-year career at News Ltd, now News Corp. Initially at The News and Sunday Mail newspapers in Adelaide, Nagy cut his teeth on the tough Courts round during the Truro serial murder trials and several other major cases which shaped South Australia. Ultimately specialising as a basketball writer, he was present at the formation of the Australian National Basketball League in 1979 and Women's National Basketball League in 1981, growing to prominence in Australia as the sport's most respected "must-read" journalist. This is a coming-of-age story, of immigration and assimilation into a foreign culture and of becoming a multiple award-winner as a writer, an insider account of a sport's growth, written with humour and the joy of the many wonderful recollections featuring the biggest names in the sport of basketball. |
