About the Book

Howard Beck. Marc Stein. Jonathan Abrams. Chris Broussard. Ira Berkow. George Vecsey. Mike Wise. Selena Roberts. Lee Jenkins. All have graced the pages of The New York Times, entertaining readers with their probing coverage of the N.B.A.: a stage on which spectacular athletes perform against a backdrop of continuous social change. Now, their work and more is collected in a new volume, edited and annotated by Hall of Fame honoree Harvey Araton, tracing basketball's sustained boom from Magic and Bird to the present.

Elevated provides a courtside seat to four decades of professional basketball. Both the iconic moments and those quieter, but no less meaningful times in between are here, from Wise riding around Los Angeles with a young Kobe Bryant on the eve of his first All-Star Game, to Stein declaring Giannis Antetokounmpo's "unspeakable greatness" to the world in a riveting profile. Rather than simply preserving the past, Elevated reexamines and further illuminates hoops history. This expertly curated collection features exclusive new writing by Araton and postscripts from the original journalists, revealing candid exchanges with NBA greats that didn't make the original newspaper edit and tracing the rise of a worldwide phenomenon from a contemporary vantage point.
About the Author: Harvey Araton has been a sports columnist for The New York Times since 1991, where he has covered ten Olympics and countless NBA finals, World Series, Super Bowls, and Final Fours. In 2017, Araton was honored by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as the recipient of the Curt Gowdy Media Award. He is the author of several previous books, including When the Garden Was Eden and Driving Mr. Yogi.

Jeff Van Gundy is an ESPN N.B.A. analyst, 2017 FIBA AmeriCup gold medal-winning coach, and former coach of the New York Knicks and Houston Rockets
