Long before the prominent era of AAU basketball and the money-hungry club teams that now pervade over the amateur basketball scene, there was a small school from the west side of Oakland, California that played a pure style of ball while producing some of the greatest athletes and teams ever assembled. When you lay it all on the table, the numbers are staggering and the names simply blow you away. McClymonds High: The School Of Champions delves deep into the rich basketball history of West Oakland's only public high school, highlighting six decades-from 1950 through 2009-of the most prominent players, coaches and teams to walk the halls of an educational landmark that locals affectionately call "The Mack House." From a scrawny kid named Bill Russell who became the greatest winner the game of basketball has ever seen to countless other eminent athletes and coaches such as Paul Silas, Frank Robinson, Joe Ellis and Antonio Davis just to name a few, McClymonds High: The School Of Champions gives readers an inside look into the soul of West Oakland and how its only high school helped shape the country's ongoing narrative of basketball and social justice. Without a doubt, McClymonds High: The School Of Champions is the most comprehensive book about McClymonds High School and the definitive guide and resource for arguably the greatest and most significant high school basketball program of all time.
