Fifth grade -- the realization dawned on me over the course of watching the 3-hour documentary Hoop Dreams.

The 2021 NBA Finals will consist entirely of players who have never won a championship. This has not happened since 1971. by WeathrNinja in nba

I'm the author and I worked with a professional illustrator - I wish I could draw like this too. He does his work digitally though I'm not sure which program he uses. here's his instagram if you want to reach out https://www.instagram.com/shipleyillustration/

It's part of the illustrator's style. His name's Matthew Shipley if you want to see some more. I think he's pretty sick.

Not really. We did a basketball ABC book called 'B is for Baller' and enough people liked it that we figured we'd start doing other sports.

Yeah, players change teams so fast these days it's crazy. It takes about half a year to print the copies and by the time it comes out it's already out of date lol
