The accomplished author of many acclaimed basketball books has delved into the story of Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant with his new book “Showboat.”

Our discussion ranges from Kobe’s youth in Italy following his father’s professional basketball career, how he evolved during his NBA playing days, the relationships with Phil Jackson and Tex Winter, as well as the spectacular 60-point finale this past April.
