And the best basketball player in his school. He has to best friends Ice and kiki.
Ice is a great basketball player to but he is starting to hang out
With the wrong crowd. Slam tries to help him out but he just does
Not listen. He is starting to hang around with people that are into drugs.
For slams basketball team he does not get along well with his coach.
He doesn't even start him and he barley even plays him. The reason for that is because slam

Slam gets about 11 points a game and thats really good for only playing
about a quarter long. And that is what I wanted to tell you about my audio book.

This book was absoultley amazing! With vivid details and a thrilling plot this book was great. The slang and real-life feel to the book made it even better. It was something I could relate to as a teenager who loves to play basketball. Two thumbs up is what I give it. I recommend this book to 12-18 year-olds.
