Offering valuable lessons in leadership from some of the greatest basketball coaches in history, including John Chaney, Phog Allen, “Big House” Gaines, and many more, Lessons from the Legends is a collection of leadership advice for both on and off the court.

No matter their methods, each coach in this book has a legacy of life and leadership that coaches and fans alike will find worthwhile and useful.
