From the author of the bestselling Kobe Bryant biography The Rise comes the legend of the most powerful shot in basketball: the slam dunk. The evolution of basketball, and much of the social and cultural change in America, can be traced through one powerful act on the court: the slam dunk. The dunk's history is the story of a sport and a country changed by the most dominant act in basketball, and it makes Magic in the Air a rollicking and insightful piece of narrative history and a surefire classic of sports literature. MIKE SIELSKI is a columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer and author of the book MAGIC IN THE AIR: The Myth, the Mystery & the Soul of the Slam Dunk. Mike joined Mike Pomp on the Morning Information Center to chat about the book and the Boston Celtics.
