The life and legacy of pioneering international basketball superstar Hakeem Olajuwon, a two‑time NBA champion whose Hall of Fame career forever changed the game, both in the United States and around the globe—from the New York Times bestselling author of Giannis, Mirin Fader.

It’s now the norm for NBA and collegiate teams to have international players dotting their rosters. The Olympics are no longer a gimme for Team USA. Both via fans streaming from all over the globe and leagues starting in countries throughout the world, the international presence of the game of basketball is a force to be reckoned with.

That all started with Hakeem “the Dream” Olajuwon. He was the first international player to win the MVP, which is hard to believe now considering the last time an American‑born player won it was in 2018. Award-winning hoops journalist Mirin Fader explores this phenomenal shift through the lens of what Olajuwon accomplished throughout the 1980s and ‘90s. Dream ignites nostalgia for Phi Slama Jama and “the Dream Shake,” while also exploring the profound influence of Olajuwon’s commitment to Islam on his approach to life and basketball, and how his devotion to his faith inspired generations of Muslim people around the world.

Olajuwon’s ongoing work with NBA Africa, his status as an international ambassador for the game, and his consultations with today’s brightest stars, from LeBron James to Giannis Antetokounmpo, brings the story right up to the present moment, and beyond. Synthesizing hundreds of interviews and in-depth research, Fader provides the definitive biography of Olajuwon as well as a crucial understanding of his pivotal impact on the ever-shifting game.

霍勒姆·奥拉迪普（Hakeem “the Dream” Olajuwon）这位开创性的国际篮球巨星的生命和遗产，他两次赢得NBA总冠军的职业生涯不仅改变了美国的篮球界，也影响了全球。这是纽约时报畅销书作者米尔恩·法德（Mirin Fader）的作品。 如今，NBA和大学球队都有国际球员的身影，奥运会对于美国队来说不再轻松取胜。通过来自世界各地的支持者以及在世界各国联赛中开始的新联赛，篮球这项运动的国际化影响力已经势不可挡。 这一切都始于霍勒姆·奥拉迪普。他还是第一个获得MVP奖的国际球员，尽管如今这很难想象，上一次美国出生的球员赢得此奖项是2018年的事情了。获奖的篮球队文记者米尔恩·法德通过奥拉迪普在1980年代和1990年代所取得成就的视角，探讨了这项非凡的变化。 奥拉迪普点燃了“Phi Slama Jama”和“the Dream Shake”的怀旧情绪，同时也探索了他作为一名伊斯兰信徒如何影响他对生活的态度以及篮球，以及他的信仰对世界各地穆斯林的影响。 奥拉迪普与NBA非洲部的持续合作、他作为这项运动的国际大使的地位以及他与当今最闪耀之星——从勒布朗·詹姆斯到扬尼斯·阿德托昆博等人的会面将故事带到了当前时刻，并超越了这个时间点。通过综合数百次采访和深入研究，法德为奥拉迪普提供了全面传记的同时也揭示了他的关键时刻对不断变化的篮球界的影响。
