Bookroo's summary

A look at basketball's shooting guard, the player teams count on for a sure basket: the historic players who shaped the position, today's stars who play it, and how young athletes train to become one.

From the publisher

That moment where a guard releases the ball and it's heading for the hoop is one of the exciting anticipatory moments in sports. This guidebook takes an in-depth look at the basketball position that most teams look to when they need a sure basket. Students will read about the historic players who made the shooting guard position what it is, as well as the superstars who play it today. Dazzling photographs show the sport's greatest shooting guards in action, while photographs of teens help show how to train to become a shooting guard.
