Sasquatch in the Paint by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Raymond Obstfeld
5.0
Newly tall basketball rookie Theo is terrified when his coach announces that the new team strategy revolves around him.
Meanwhile, basketball practice conflicts with prep for the academic team he’s been on for a while, and then Theo meets a mysterious girl, Rain, and becomes concerned about some threatening young men around her. And his nasty cousin is upset about unplanned sharing of his music.
Like how Theo resolved the issue with the academic team (stepped down to the junior team) and didn’t win the basketball game, but became a better player through practice and changing his attitude.
Great characters and development, and of course basketball play description!
