An NBA Legacy and Confronting Modern Antisemitism | Dan Grunfeld

Rabbi Wildes is joined by Dan Grunfeld - former professional basketball player and author of the fantastic book, "By the Grace of the Game: The Holocaust, a Basketball Legacy, and an Unprecedented American Dream" to discuss his family legacy of Jewish basketball players including his father Ernie who played 9 seasons in the NBA and is the only player ever to be a son of Holocaust survivors. Dan also shares how he feels the NBA reacted to the Kyrie Irving antisemitism controversy, the current state of antisemitic attacks on Israel on college campuses, and more.
