NBA fans had low expectations for rookie coach Nick Nurse and his Toronto Raptors. But what those naysayers didn’t realize was that Nurse had spent the past 30 years proving himself at every level of the game, from youth programs and college ball to the NBA D League and Britain’s struggling pro circuit. While few coaches have taken such a circuitous path to pro basketball’s promised land, the journey – which began at Kuemper Catholic high school in Carroll, Iowa – forged a coach who proved to be as unshakable as he is personable.

On the road, he is known to bring his guitar and keyboard for late-night jazz and blues sessions. In the locker room, he’s steadfast and even-keeled regardless of the score. On the court, he pulls out old-school tactics with astounding success. A rookie in name but a veteran in attitude, Nurse is seemingly above the chaos of the game and, with only two seasons on his résumé, has already established himself as one of the NBA’s most admired head coaches.

Now, in this revealing new book – equal parts personal memoir, leadership mani­festo, and philosophical meditation – Nurse tells his own story. Given unprecedented access inside the Raptors’ locker room, listeners get an intimate study of not only the team culture he has built, but also of a rookie coach’s unique dynamic with the star players – such as Kawhi Leonard, Kyle Low­ry, and Pascal Siakam – who helped trail­blaze the 2019 championship run. As much for listeners of Ray Dalio as for fans of John Wooden and Pat Summitt, Rapture promis­es to be a necessary listen for anyone looking to forge their own path to success.
