The science behind streaks on and off the basketball court
In the seminal arcade video game, NBA Jam, a player making two shots in a row would begin "heating up," and after three shots they would go on an unstoppable shooting streak. But do these kinds of streaks exist in real life? Hari Sreenivasan spoke with Wall Street Journal reporter Ben Cohen about his new book, "The Hot Hand," and the implications of streaks both on and off the basketball court.
