"A tour de force of reporting" (The Washington Post) from a Pulitzer-prize winning journalist that examines the often-corrupt machine producing America's basketball stars "Indispensable."-The Wall Street Journal"Often heart-breaking, always riveting."-The New York Times Book Review"Tremendous."-The Plain Dealer Winner of the PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sportswriting. Winner of the Award for Excellence in the Coverage of Youth SportsUsing eight years of unfettered access and a keen sense of a story's deepest truths, journalist George Dohrmann reveals a cutthroat world where boys as young as eight or nine are subjected to a dizzying torrent of scrutiny and exploitation.
At the book's heart are the personal stories of two compelling figures: Joe Keller, an ambitious coach with a master plan to find and promote "the next LeBron, " and Demetrius Walker, a fatherless latchkey kid who falls under Keller's sway and struggles to live up to unrealistic expectations. Complete with a new "where-are-they-now" epilogue by the author, Play Their Hearts Out is a thoroughly compelling narrative exposing the gritty reality that lies beneath so many dreams of fame and glory. One of GQ'S 50 Best Books of Literary Journalism of the 21st Century .
