Dream: The Life and Legacy of Hakeem Olajuwon

This biography explores the phenomenal shift in the international presence of basketball, tracing its roots to the remarkable career of Hakeem Olajuwon, a two-time NBA champion and trailblazer for international players in the sport. Through hundreds of interviews and in-depth research, Mirin Fader delves into Olajuwon's life, legacy, and impact on the game, including his commitment to Islam and his ongoing work with NBA Africa.

The story of Olajuwon's influence on basketball is one of profound change, from the 1980s and '90s to the present day, with insights into his consultations with top players and his role as an international ambassador for the game.
