Sad to see.  Loved his books.  Have read Season on the Brink multiple times.

Too bad. Seems young. Talented sports author with a complicated relationship with Knight.

Love that book. Read it a couple times.

I think when Knight passed I asked about this article that I could no longer find. Someone here—I forget who—found it and graciously posted it. It was from when Knight retired. If you’ve never read SotB it accurately reflects their relationship and is obviously a much shorter read.

RIP. Wrote some wonderful books. The Punch is an extraordinary read.

Dang man RIP. I highly recommend his book on Red Auerbach too. “Let Me Tell You A Story”
