Black men sure can jump

This was a very short but interesting book on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. I did not know how involved he was in academics before. He has proven that being smart does not block your chances for being a great athlete. Although Kareem has been retired from basketball since 1989, all athletes should study his star performances. He is a perfect role model for athletes of any sport. Naturally, all basketball player should study his life story by reading this book.
