DESCRIPTION: Several former Blue Devil players who have worn the legendary Duke uniform share their fondest single-game experience and memories. Some of these games involve championships, while others have extraordinary personal meaning. In each case, it is the player who singles out the game, the moment in time that to him is the most defining of his Duke career. The book features heroes like Dick Groat, Art Heyman, Johnny Dawkins, Danny Ferry, Christian Laettner, Shane Battier, Jason Williams, J.J. Redick, Grant Hill, Billy King, Mike Gminski, and Jay Bilas.
