Gus's friend Cassie tries out for--and earns a spot on--the middle school boys' basketball team. Gus says he's all good with it, but hidden prejudices nag at him. Meanwhile, Gus himself experiences prejudice due to his Dominican heritage. Vivid game-time action scenes will keep readers hooked, even if the characters tend to be overly chatty off-court.
