Ray Allen was appointed to the board of the Holocaust Museum for his incredible work. Having him write the foreword for my book was a true honor. Top 75 NBA player. Even better person.

This was an incredible conversation with Marc Stein about our families' journeys and the powerful role that basketball has played. Please listen 🙏

I'm so grateful to the NBA and to NBA History for shining a light on the Holocaust on Yom HaShoah. Basketball changes lives and brings people together. Check out this story 🙏

My grandma is not only my hero, she's also A HERO. She survived the Holocaust and risked her life to save 17 others. Today, she turns 97. Please join me in wishing Anyu a very happy birthday. And please read her story and know her history. It matters 🙏 amazon.com/Grace-Game-Hol…

If you read one thing today, read Marc Stein’s tribute to his father and to the Stein family’s remarkable journey. You’ll be happy you did.

Me to my three-year-old son, tenderly, before putting him to bed: “I love you, buddy…” My son, excited: “Thanks!” Me, suddenly desperate: “Anything else you want to say?” My son, supremely casual: “No. Just that.” Happy Father’s Day!!

Thank you so much for reading the story and for your amazing words about it. I appreciate it, Stef, and please send my thanks to your dad, too 🙏🙏

Thank you, my friend. My grandma, 97, just told me not to go out in public wearing the Star of David necklace she got me. She survived the Holocaust and fled to America not to have to say things like that. I hope my book can help highlight the dangers of antisemitic language.

My book detailing my family's journey from Auschwitz to the NBA was released a year ago today. Antisemitism, prejudice, and hatred in any form are such dangerous and destructive forces. We can't forget what's at stake when people aren't treated fairly. amazon.com/Grace-Game-Hol…
