Former Sydney Kings' captain and triple Olympian Damian Keogh dissects one of Australia's first privately owned sporting organizations to offer an insight into a world where business and sport are entwined. From his position as a 16-year old veteran of the National Basketball League, promotional whizz-kid and media commentator, Damiam Keogh delves into the contrasting motivations and covert games played out behind the scenes of modern Australian sport.
