The NBA legend-in-the-making, recruited by the New York Knicks and the Atlanta Hawks, paid a high emotional cost after witnessing a doublemurder at age 17. What unfolds is both heartbreaking and inspiring.

But, there is redemption and new possibilities as Greene pivots and transforms his many blocked shots into a winning season.
