Nearly a century after the team played its first game, the Harlem Globetrotters continue to occupy a unique and entertaining niche in basketball and American sports writ large. A lot of what we see today is the realization of the vision of one man: Abe Saperstein. But his influence went far beyond the basketball court. Reset learns more about one of the more creative minds and interesting personalities to shape American sports in the 20th century with Mark Jacob, author of the book “Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up The World Of Sports.” For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.
