Description

40 years of stunning basketball photography—both on the court and off—from one of the sport's greatest chroniclers. This handsome coffee table book is the perfect gift for the basketball fan in your life. As one of the NBA’s premier photographers, Nathaniel S. Butler has shot it all. From iconic moments like Ray Allen’s corner three to intimate portraits of Bill Russell and the NBA50 and NBA75 teams to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant and Steph Curry clinching championships, if it was a history-making basketball moment, Butler was there. Courtside: 40 Years of NBA Photography is a spectacular photographic collection spanning the first four decades of Butler’s career, including the current draft class’s rookie season. With commentary from NBA legends across generations, including Patrick Ewing, Steph Curry, Jeremy Lin, and Victor Wembanyama, this is the insider look at the National Basketball Association and the man whose photographs have helped define its rise.

  • Treasure Trove of NBA Greats In Action
This is a must-have for all NBA fans. Outstanding photography throughout. Bought 4 copies, 1 for myself and 3 for Christmas presents. It helped that there was a Black Friday Sale, 3 books for the price of 2.

The iconic photos from the past are in there as well as some deep cut photos that I'd never seen before. Lots of content from old and new legends of the game. Can't wait to have this on my coffee table for years to come. ... show more

  • Must buy for any sports fan
The depth and breadth of Nathaniel Butlers photography is truly incredible. Being able to see pictures of truly great sports moments as well as some not so big moments brings back lots of great memories. The written tributes add to the feeling that this author truly loves this game. The quotes from the players as they see the picture brings the photos to life in a very special way. A great book!! ... show more

  • A gorgeous coffee table book!
I purchased this book as a gift for my NBA loving brother in law. The photographs are gorgeous, with thick, luxurious feeling paper. Foreword is well written, and there are enough photos that you could flip through it over and over to see something new. It sparks great “remember this?!” Conversation and is a great physical size on a typical ottoman or coffee table. ... show more
