New York Times bestseller

"A compelling narrative about the people who produced the most spine-tingling moment in modern college basketball history.â‚¬Â â‚¬â€œSeth Davis, Sports Illustrated and CBS

March 28, 1992. The final of the NCAA East Regional, Duke vs. Kentucky. Millions could say they witnessed the greatest game and the greatest shot in the history of college basketball. But it wasnâ‚¬t just the final playâ‚¬"an 80-foot inbounds pass with 2.1 seconds left in overtimeâ‚¬"that made Dukeâ‚¬s 104-103 victory so memorable. Each player and coach arrived at that point with a unique story to tell.

In The Last Great Game, ESPN columnist Gene Wojciechowski turns the game we think we remember into a drama filled with suspense, humor, revelations, and reverberations. Not just for Duke or Kentucky fans, this acclaimed New York Times bestseller is for everyone who appreciates the great moments in sports.
