For The Love Of The Game (Book 1)
A young basketball star, age 13, coming up on 14 soon, loves to play basketball, and actually is insanely good at it. Not only is he fast, and has the stamina to maintain through an entire 48 minutes, but he also is a hard worker. After school, he usually goes to work out after all of that, doing his best to always be in the most fit, and the most pristine shape, all at the exact same time as well. There is only one problem in this story, which is the simple fact, that he is short, and you know the old term, usually for basketball, but also for a lot of other sports, which was 'short people can't play'. To be fair, all at the exact same time as well, the kid is still young, and he still has room to grow, but he is very short, and that means it's nearly impossible to shoot on his defenders. Luckily, his dribbling skills, and his moves work for him, and usually get the defender of balance, giving him an easy shot, but some times, he does not even have to do that, as he can pass it to an outlet man, and a shooter, or perhaps a big man in the paint. Trevor, is a very great player none the less, and he does a good job on rec league teams. He is tired of rec league though, and he wants to play high school basketball. The high school team has open try outs around early in the year, and he goes to the try out, all at the exact same time too. As he goes to try out, the coach just laughs at him, and doesn't really give him a chance, as he doesn't make the cut when all is said and done. This really hurts Trevor, as he wants a chance to do some thing with his skills. After school that day, he goes to his mother, and some how manages to transfer schools, to bit of a school out in the ghetto, as that is his only other choice. He tries out for the team there, but comes to find out that they have no coach, as their last one died last year. Without a coach, they have no team? Trevor is lost, but there is some one that is near him, he might be able to help him...
