Bestselling author and Duke University alumnus John Feinstein explores a basketball legacy that begins with his days as an undergrad Duke Chronicle reporter covering Coach Bill Foster and ends with John Scheyer's succeeding Hall of Fame Coach Mike Krzyzewski. Feinstein was present during the entirety of Coach Krzyzewski's 42 years at Duke.
