Description: This is the story of perhaps the greatest all-around player in basketball history, told straight from his mouth. The name Oscar Robertson nowadays gets mentioned in conjunction with one of basketball's seminal accomplishments: the triple-double season. The year was 1962. He was all of twenty-three. No player in basketball history had ever done this. Fast forward to a superstar at the height of his career becoming the president of a union, the National Basketball Players Association, using his fame to try to improve conditions for all basketball players. It is the story of the man who sues the NBA for the right to free agency. And it is the story of a man who revolutionized the game of basketball twice: once on the court, and once in the way that the business of basketball is conducted. This SIGNED hardcover with dust jacket is in like new condition. Dust jacket has slight bend at top of spine (see photo). Comes with Certificate of Authenticity. Shipped for free via media mail with care.
