A young adult book about passion, for friends and for basketball and for family.  Told in two voices, we learn about Bunny, a super star  who has transferred to a mostly white school outside his neighborhood for better opportunities and Nasir, the friend he left behind, who resents his decision and who is also concerned about the struggles of his cousin, Wallace, about to be evicted with his grandmother and a person who makes all the wrong choices but also never seems to have any of the possibilities that others are offered.  There are lots of bad choices here but a sense that this is real life.
