  • Resumen

  • Most basketball fans know Ernie Grunfeld through his GM roles for the New York Knicks, Milwaukee Bucks, and Washington Wizards, his NBA playing career, or being half of the “Ernie and Bernie Show” with Bernard King as the two tore up the SEC. But what they might not understand about Grunfeld’s backstory is that he is the person in major league sports history whose parents survived the Holocaust. Ernie’s son Dan follows his father’s story, his own college and pro basketball career, and the legacy of his grandmother, Anyu, from the ghetto of Budapest to the blacktop in New York City to Stanford University in his compelling book By the Grace of the Game. In this episode, Dan shares: · How his grandparents survived the Holocaust, escaped Communism, and emigrated to NYC · Why basketball provided his father with an outlet after losing his brother to leukemia · What Dan did to tackle a nervous tic and tame his anxiety · Why being a good person is even more important than chasing greatness · How his father and grandmother imparted life lessons about perseverance, hard work, and hope Keep up with Dan’s writing on his website, dangrunfeld.com and on Twitter @Dan_Grunfeld.
