"Chapman's frank assessment of the toll his addictions took on his loved ones lends his account appealing humility....It's the off-court sections that lend this sports memoir its power." -- Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A powerful memoir from the University of Kentucky basketball legend, NBA veteran, and social media influencer about his recovery from addiction. He is considered by many the greatest basketball player ever produced by the hoops-crazy state of Kentucky. In two years at the University of Kentucky, he scored over 1,000 points, led the Wildcats to a Sweet Sixteen appearance and was nicknamed "King Rex." The first player ever drafted by the Charlotte Hornets, he spent twelve seasons in the NBA, dazzling in dunk contests and sinking one of the most memorable buzzer-beaters in league history. But by the end of his career, Rex Chapman was harboring a destructive secret. Years before America's opioid crisis would become national news, Chapman developed a dependency on Vicodin and Oxycontin, ultimately ingesting fifty painkillers a day. In addition, he developed a severe gambling addiction, once nearly losing $400,000 at a Las Vegas blackjack table. All this would cost him his family as well as most of the $40 million fortune he'd made in basketball, leaving him to live in his car and shoplift to support his addictions. Only when he was arrested--and his mugshot made national news--did he finally commit to getting clean. In It's Hard for Me to Live With Me , Chapman--who has amassed millions of social media followers for his relatable and uplifting posts--tells the story of his addiction and recovery in unflinching detail. With equal frankness, he describes his history with depression; the racism he witnessed growing up and how that shaped his outspokenness on matters of social justice; and his complex and volatile relationship with his father, also a former professional basketball player. Cowritten with New York Times bestselling author Seth Davis, Chapman's memoir is an equally devastating and inspiring story about the human struggle for self-acceptance.

- d***d (27)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book arrived badly damaged. It was shipped in a thin plastic bag with no protection. For a thin, softcover book, cardboard support would’ve helped. It’s also possible the book was already in poor condition before shipping and was misrepresented in the listing. Either way, it was only a couple bucks cheaper than new, so this felt like a total rip-off. Based on other reviews, I don’t expect a resolution, but I wanted to share my experience.
