Basketball Player Conquers Gravity, Wows Fans

This week’s Sports Illustrated cover features an instantly iconic photo that serves as a reminder of of the days when magazines were hugely popular and featured spectacular images with compelling feature stories.  Why? Because basketball player Jimmer Fredette can really jump!

The BYU guard and national player of the year was photographed during BYU’s third-round win over Gonzaga.
