Tune in to Vital City's latest podcast episode about a New York basketball legend.
This week on After Hours, Jamie takes a detour from New York politics to explore a deeply personal piece of the city's basketball history: the life and legacy of Michael Ray Richardson, the electrifying Knicks guard whose career was derailed by cocaine addiction in the 1980s.
