Under the guidance of cerebral coach Phil Woolpert, and alongside fellow future NBA hall-of-famer K.C. Jones, Russell led the Dons-who, with multiple black players, shocked and scandalized the basketball community-to back-to-back championships and redefined what it meant to play defense.
James Weldon Johnson combs through archival interviews as well as articles and books written by Russell and Jones to piece together the story of a team that revolutionized the game and endured an era of racial turmoil, supplementing the material with his own interviews. Without new input from Russell, Jones or the deceased Woolpert, however, the narrative feels like a discovery from a time capsule, with much of its perspective originating in an earlier era...."
