From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of HEAT, TRAVEL TEAM, and MILLION-DOLLAR THROW
Pedro Morales loves playing basketball, but he's more of a team guy than a star - that would be Ned Hancock, the best player in their entire town.

The election starts to affect their team, and Pedro learns who his real friends are and the best way to work together on and off the court.
