The Secret Game: A Fast Break to Freedom with Greg de Deugd

  • Summary

  • In 1944, players from the Durham Based North Carolina College for Negro, now known as North Carolina Central, took on players from Duke University in a secret basketball game where it was more than just frowned upon by the so called establishment.

    It was also against the law in North Carolina.

    In this episode we will talk to Greg deDeugd about his new film, The Secret Game: A Fast Break to Freedom.

    That inciteful interview coming up and later, the architect of this game was a man by the name of John McClendon.

    One of the true pioneers of the game of basketball. This longtime trailblazing coach not only was a protégé of the man who invented basketball Dr. James Naismith, but the game that you see on the court today with up-tempo offense and press defense was all part of his vision for the game.

    His story is part of our shout out segment of this episode.
