About this Event
Squawkin' Sports: WNBABANBA
Hosted by Patrick Sauer & David J. Roth
Featuring authors Emma Baccellieri and Theresa Runstedtler
Tickets starting at $11
Created and hosted by writers Patrick Sauer and David J. Roth, Squawkin’ Sports is an ongoing series featuring book chats with authors who write about playing games. This month, Sauer and Roth chat with Emma Baccellieri, co-author of Court Queens: Celebrate the Players, Teams, and History of Women’s Basketball, and Theresa Runstedtler, author of Black Ball: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Spencer Haywood, and the Generation that Saved the Soul of the NBA.
A definitive, first-of-its-kind, richly photographic celebration of women’s basketball, Bacciellieri's Court Queens captures the passion, energy, and skill of the sport—and the many players and coaches who helped build it.
In Runstedtler's Black Ball, a vital narrative history of 1970s pro basketball, and the Black players who shaped the NBA, Runstedtler provides a gripping corrective that expertly rewrites the “Dark Ages" of basketball and argues that this much-maligned period was pivotal to the rise of the modern-day NBA.
