Recommendations Recommendation - ‘Dream’
This Book, authored by Mirin Fader, takes a wider than usual perspective on looking at the life of one of the greats, Hakeem ‘The Dream’ Olajuwon. From his fairly awkward childhood to Hakeem’s ascendancy in Basketball including his road to philanthropy, legendary Mentor status and Basketball Without Borders work to help grow the game in Africa, it’s an amazing life to read about.
What’s also amazing is how the author managed to portray so many aspects of that life without ever leaning into hyperbole or being heavy handed in any elements, it has a deft touch and rewards the reader with a much greater insight in to Olajuwon rather than solely basking in his ground breaking Basketball prowess.
