Synopsis

Of the more than 10,000 athletes participating in the 1992 Olympic Summer Games, the members of the U. S. Olympic Team - Men's Basketball were the most recognizable.
For the first time in international basketball history, NBA players were allowed to compete for the United States. Telling the story of the 1992 team from the selection to the final Olympic Games contest, Chuck Daly, the first professional to coach a U.S. Olympic basketball team, provides his unique insight into the players, the training camp, world competition, and the Olympic Games themselves. Also included are special chapters on the phenomenon of Magic Johnson and the history of America in Olympic basketball.
Co-authored with Alex Sachare, veteran sportswriter and editor, this book is published in conjunction with the National Basketball Association, with the cooperation of USA Basketball and the United States Olympic Committee. Behind-the-scenes information, full-color action photos, and biographical sections on each team member make America's Dream Team the ultimate insider's book.
