Title: Hoops by Walter Dean Myers
Product review: Hoops by Walter Dean Myers is a really good book about not only basketball, but also about what most high schoolers go through, drugs, sex, and violence. Lonnie, a basketball player with a given talent and a -want- to go to the NBA. He enters a tournement where college scouts will be everywhere. His coach for the tounement is Cal Jones, a former NBA player who was suspended becuase he was caught shaving points for money. When the championship comes around Cal is made a deal to keep Lonnie out of the game so these gamblers can make alot of money. When the clock ticks down, Cal has to make the decision whether to let Lonnie have a chance in the spotlight or money. Hoops by Walter dean Myers is a very good book that is one of my favorite.
