Opis

As one of the top basketball players in New York State, Bennett Wilson, is destined to take Mount Vernon High to the state championship for the first time. With the nation's top colleges clamoring his services, he is guaranteed a scholarship. With fame and fortune waiting, the world is Bennett's oyster. Or, so we think. Bennett's life is actually plagued with strife. As the oldest of three children living with their single mother in the tough inner city projects of Mount Vernon, the thought of choosing the fast life of the streets was never an option. His ticket out of despair was through basketball and academics. However, when Bennett learns his sick mother is three months behind in rent and was served an eviction notice, Bennett wonders if he can resist the temptation of fast money. Will he answer the call he's avoided all his life and what would it cost him if he does?
