Summary

Summary

This unique, photo-illustrated book looks at eight NBA players who have overcome great obstacles in their climb to the top. From Reggie Miller, who wore leg braces for the first five years of his life, to Jayson Williams, who lost two of his sisters to AIDS, these profiles reveal the humanity of some of today's top athletes.
