We had a little get-together to celebrate "The Joy of Basketball." Thanks to everyone who came thru and everyone who helped make it happen!

Today is the big day: our book “The Joy of Basketball” is officially in stores!
Thanks to my brilliant creative partner @andrewkuostudio , everyone at @abramsbooks who made this possible, @desusnice for his funny and thoughtful foreword, and our trio of blurbers @pstorre@sarahkatesilverman and @mina_kimes !
If you’ve never read a book, this one has lots of pretty pictures. Link in bio if you want to buy it online!
“The Joy of Basketball” now exists. It’s the first book I’ve ever written—alongside the extraordinary @andrewkuostudio —and the abruptness of it becoming tactile feels a little surreal. I’m proud of what we’ve created and we hope it conveys why we’re so cartoonishly into the sport of basketball.
Many thanks to @desusnice for contributing a fantastic foreword and to @abramsbooks for letting us follow our vision. Our book is available for pre-order now and officially comes out on November 9th. Link in bio!
Over the last year, @andrewkuostudio and I wrote a book about the last quarter century of the NBA. It’s an illustrated tome that covers superstars, trends, style, which players resemble bucatini, and much more. It comes out October 19th on @abramsbooks and is available for presale now! Link in bio, my royals.
