Today on Tablet

I and the rest of us at Tablet Magazine were extremely honored to work with FreeDarko (seriously, buy their book, it’s great) to give you the chance to choose your all-time Jewish-American basketball team today in Tablet Magazine. And I felt even more absurdly honored to be able to interview Dolph Schayes, the greatest Jewish basketball player who ever lived, as an accompaniment.

I strongly recommend you take some time and play around with the game. There are some fun results that only a small proportion of combinations gets you.

Oh, and my all-time team? Brown, Grunfeld, Heyman, Schayes, Walk, and Holzman.
