Bookroo's summary
Daniel Friedland, a benchwarmer on the Wildcats, finally gets his chance when the star forward takes a break. With his free throws polished but layups lacking, Daniel must overcome his weaknesses to seize the spotlight. Can he rise to the challenge and secure his place as a starter, or will his shortcomings keep him on the sidelines? The pressure is on, and the court is his proving ground.
From the publisher
There are five guys on the Wildcats who always start, and forward Daniel Friedland isn’t one of them. But when the star forward goes on vacation, Daniel gets his chance at the spotlight. It’s his turn to shine. Daniel has worked hard at improving his free throws, but he’s terrible at layups, and everybody knows it. He’ll need to work hard if he wants to be a starting Wildcat.
