Can Raven overcome her struggles to play in the tournament she loves?
Raven faces a whirlwind of challenges: her grandmother's death, a knee injury, and a fallout with her best friend. Desperate to join the Jammin' Salmon basketball tournament, she pushes herself and her teammates to the limit. But to truly return to the court, Raven must confront her inner turmoil and mend broken relationships. Will she find the strength to heal and play the game she loves?
Raven is dealing with a lot–her grandmother’s recent death, a knee injury from an accident, and a tiff with her best friend. But she’s determined to prove to her basketball coach that her knee is in good enough shape for her to play in the Jammin’ Salmon basketball tournament, which she’s been participating in since she was little. So she pushes herself–and her teammates–a little too much while trying to prove she should play in the tournament. But to really get back into the game, Raven will have to battle her own feelings of anger and sadness first–and make some amends.
