About the Book

Who's the greatest basketball player ever?Madness is the intriguing story of Hank Luisetti, the predawn of March Madness, and how modern basketball was born.FINALIST, 2019 TopShelf Book AwardsSOLO MEDALIST WINNER: Autobiography / Biography / Memoir - 2019 New Apple Summer eBook AwardsBRONZE MEDAL: Young Adult Category - 2019 Readers' Favorite Book AwardsFINALIST, Sports - 2019 International Book AwardsFINALIST - 2019 Topshelf Book Awards"I would say author Mike DeLucia is to the sports novel, what Sylvester Stallone is to the sports film. Mr. DeLucia's characters are rich and relatable, in a story where sports is an analogy for life."Mike DeLucia keeps the characters engaging, and the action moving. He manages to capture the energy and excitement of a championship face-off, and put it on the page. This is a well-done "sports" novel."The majority of searches say Michael Jordan is the best basketball player of all time, but many others oppose this. While Jordan's rank is debatable, a respectable dream team would include Kevin Durant, Bill Russell, Hakeem Olajuwon, Dr. J, Tim Duncan, Jerry West, Kobe Bryant, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Shaquille O'Neal, LeBron James, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Stephen Curry, Michael Jordan, and Hank Luisetti.Chances are, you've never heard of Hank Luisetti. But this wouldn't be a legitimate discussion without the Hall of Fame legend whose celebrity caused a basketball revolution.James Naismith invented basketball in 1891; Hank Luisetti reinvented it in 1936. Hank changed basketball's genetic footprint when he popularized the one-handed shot. He could jump so high and stay up so long he seemed to defy gravity.Was Luisetti better than Jordan? That's impossible to say because they played in different eras. But Hank Luisetti was basketball's first superstar and what he did for the game is unprecedented.This historical fiction novel is based on the basketball achievements of Hank Luisetti. Some actual events, aspects, and characters have been fictionalized.Get your copy!Visit the author's website: www.booksbymikedelucia.com
