When talented but short Danny doesn't make the prestigious seventh-grade travel team, he and his dad, a former NBA player, form their own travel team. Danny's relationships with his teammates, opponents, and divorced parents all ring true. Lupica's mix of rich characterization and authentic basketball details blend to create an engaging, enjoyable story.
