Description
Lincoln is in a jam when his basketball team at his new school–where the students are rich and mostly white–faces his old team from the barrio on the boards. How can he play his best against his friends? No matter who wins, it looks like it will be lose-lose for Lincoln.
Having moved from the barrio to the suburbs, Lincoln Mendoza is still loyal to his home team–even though he’s playing basketball for another school now. When the two teams face each other, Lincoln learns something about winning, loyalty, change, and friendship.
