This one was definitely a top 3 basketball books ever for me. Also a kind of forgotten story. CCNY was once the crown jewel of NYC hoops. The scandal itself is captivating enough, but the setting also paints an incredible picture of college hoops and New York City of 1940’s 50’s. From the old Madison Square Garden to the Bronx to the Catskills, loved all of it.
