{"product_id":"a-perfect-fit-9781416570974","title":"A Perfect Fit","description":"Former NBA star Luther Wright shares his harrowing and uplifting journey of finding God--and himself--when he had nothing else to lose.Luther Wright had the life hoop dreams are made of. A first-round NBA draft pick for the Utah Jazz, he was a rookie on a team with basketball legends Karl Malone and John Stockton. He had money, women, cars, and a luxurious bachelor pad overlooking Salt Lake City. But within a year, ravaged by drugs and unable to cope with life as an NBA star, he was homeless, broke, and addicted to crack cocaine. Wright never wanted to play basketball, yet standing more than seven feet tall even as a boy, he thought he had no choice. In this heartrending memoir, he writes candidly about the self-destructive spiral he found himself on after neglecting his passions to pursue the dreams of others. After years of living on the streets, he finally found a gift greater than anything his millions could have bought him--God. Today, Wright offers a simple message: believe in yourself, follow your dreams, and only then will you find your Perfect Fit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luther Wright,Karen Hunter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gallery Books\/Karen Hunter Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.19h x 5.38w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416570974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLuther Wright is a former NBA player with the Utah Jazz.
