Publisher Description

The #1 Bestseller!

Twelve-year-old Danny Walker may be the smallest kid on the basketball court -- but don't tell him that. Because no one plays with more heart or court sense. But none of that matters when he is cut from his local travel team, the very same team his father led to national prominence as a boy. Danny's father, still smarting from his own troubles, knows Danny isn't the only kid who was cut for the wrong reason, and together, this washed-up former player and a bunch of never-say-die kids prove that the heart simply cannot be measured.

For fans of The Bad News Bears, Hoosiers, the Mighty Ducks, and Mike Lupica's other New York Times bestselling novels Heat, The Underdogs, and Million-Dollar Throw, here is a book that proves that when the game knocks you down, champions stand tall.

You know what's going to happen, and that's okay.

This book is the classic sports story: ragtag team with something to prove comes back and wins the big game. While not trying to break the mold, it does weave in love story, a cautionary tale about drunk driving, and enough current references to bring in today's readers. It also features a female character that plays "like a boy". Give this book to your tween sports fan, and he (or she) will enjoy it.
