Walker is the smallest kid playing basketball but that won’t stop him. Danny is back again for another travel team
championship. His passion and respect for basketball is tremendous. Anything
and everything he does has something about basketball in it. His whole life is
focused around basketball. So for the summer Danny goes to camp Right Way to
improve his ability’s and get to know basketball a little bit more.
When Danny
gets to camp he is amazed by how many courts, professional players and huts he
sees. So after he gets settled and looks around, Danny sees his old rival,
Rasheed the person he beat last year on the travel team. Rasheed is with another
person by the name Lamar. He and Rasheed are on a court playing against each
other. So when Danny saw him he knew that he was off to a rough start.
Despite
Rasheed and Lamar being there Danny starts to feel more accustomed to Right
Way. Then when the draft comes it all goes downhill from there. Danny was
picked by the coach that his dad had known when he was little. Coach Powers is
one of the many coaches that don’t really care for the sport, and focus more on
the championship. When Danny finds out that Rasheed was also drafted to Coach
Powers team he starts to worry.
Danny can
suffer with Rasheed, but then he finds out that all Coach Powers wants is a
championship he starts to worry. With his friends by his side Danny will find a
way to overcome all of the things that is thrown his way. With old and new
enemy’s anything is possible to happen to Danny.
Very well done, Trevan!
