Hoops

"Hoops" by walter Dean Myers. Its an awesome story, i recommend it to anyone who loves basketball like me, and overcoming obstacles.

This story is about a high school ball player named lonnie. He is amazing at basketball and dreams of playing basketball in college someday and in the NBA. Lonnie lives in Harlem, NY, and is struggling through tough times, poverty. He doubts his new coach, Cal, and doesnt think that hes gonna be there for his new team. He soon see's what the man has done in the past, and connects with him. Cal soon becomes a huge impact on Lonnie and they face many challenges.

Its an amazing book. Now its also one of my favorites because i love basketball. You guys should all read this book.
