Description
Basketball is a passport. For Adam Reed, this means basketball can take him anywhere. Before basketball, Adam's mom died, and his father left him. His adopted mom, Renata, brought him from Poland to Minnesota, where Kase Kinshaw calls him "the Refugee." Adam does not like to talk about his life before basketball.
Basketball is Adam's passport to a good life. On the court is where he finds happiness. Because of basketball, he meets Carli Anderson, who smells like honey and who shoots a basketball with feathery fingertips. And because he is good at basketball - really good - Adam is invited to join a select AAU team with all-stars like Devin Mitchell and Khalil Williams. This changes everything, and Adam begins to find what he's always wanted: a family.
When an off-court incident threatens Adam's basketball career - and his new family - he must decide what matters to him most before he loses everything.
