#1 New York Times bestseller Mike Lupica makes his return to
the basketball court!
There's a reason teammates call him "True." Because for
basketball phenom Drew Robinson, there is nothing more true
than his talent on the court. It's the kind that comes along
once in a generation and is loaded with perks--and with
problems.
Before long, True buys in to his own hype, much to the
chagrin of his mother, who wants to keep her boy's head
grounded--and suddenly trouble has a way of finding him.
That is, until a washed-up former playground legend steps
back onto the court and takes True under his wing.
In this age of street agents promising riches to kids barely
out of elementary school and college programs being taken
down because of recruiting violations, True Legend is a
resonant and inspiring novel in the Lupica tradition.
