Mirin Fader is a senior staff writer for The Ringer, writing long-form, human-interest sports features. She’s the New York Times best-selling author of the book, Giannis: The Improbable Rise of an NBA Champion, about Giannis Antetokounmpo and his youngest brother, Alex Antetokounmpo.
Her current book is another biography, this time on Hakeem Olajuwon. We discussed his upbringing, what brought him to America, how his religion played a part in his life and career, and his influence in the influx of NBA players from outside North America.
