When Legends Became Legacy is the definitive account of the greatest basketball team ever assembled-the 1992 U.S. Olympic Dream Team. More than a sports story, this book captures the cultural explosion that occurred when twelve of the NBA’s most iconic figures came together for a single cause: to show the world what basketball could truly become.From the boardrooms where Olympic rules were rewritten, to the sweat-soaked scrimmages in Monte Carlo, to the streets of Barcelona where Barkley shook hands with fans and Jordan dodged crowds, every chapter peels back the layers of greatness. Through in-depth narratives, game breakdowns, behind-the-scenes dynamics, and global reactions, When Legends Became Legacy chronicles how the Dream Team didn’t just win gold-they transformed the game itself.This is the story of how basketball conquered the world. And how a team of legends became a legacy that still echoes through every bounce of the ball today.
