Summary | The University of Kentucky basketball legend, NBA veteran and social media influencer Rex Chapman discusses how he overcame both an addiction to prescription painkillers and a severe gambling problem that cost him almost his entire fortune. Chapman-who has amassed more than a million social media followers for his relatable and uplifting posts-tells the story of his addiction and recovery in unflinching detail. With equal frankness, he describes his history with depression, the racism he witnessed growing up and how that shaped his outspokenness on matters of social justice, and his complex and volatile relationship with his father, also a former professional basketball player. Cowritten with New York Times bestselling author Seth Davis, Chapman's memoir is a courageous and inspiring story about the human struggle for self-acceptance. |
