Description
Here is a multiple choice question--Lance Allred is A.) the grandson of a famous polygamist, B.) afflicted with obsessive-compulsive disorder, C.) legally deaf, D.) a former professional basketball player. The correct answer is E.), all of the above. Allred is also a fundamentalist Mormon, who had his faith routinely tested as he ricocheted around the international professional basketball circuit, playing for pennies in Turkey, France, and Spain. Most importantly for readers, Allred is a witty and talented writer, who recaps the unlikely path he took to become the first legally deaf person to play in the NBA, in one of the most inspirational and insightful sports memoirs to hit the shelves in some time.
