The main character is a little too much of a "chosen one" but the story is engaging and the basketball scenes are fun to read (even for someone who isn't a basketball fan!).

5.0

As someone familiar with Native culture through growing up and my career, this was such a great read! The authenticity of the characters and their struggles are strengths of the novel. I found myself smiling at the uncles and pulling for the team every step of the way.

After receiving new information regarding how the Goodreads algorithm works and how it can punish authors if they drop below 5 stars, I am only rating on a 5 or 1 scale now until it's fixed and there's room for nuanced discussion and reviews.
