Lincoln is in a jam when his basketball team at his new school where the students are rich and mostly white faces his old team from the barrio on the boards. How can he play his best game against his friends? Yet how can he betray his new teammates by not giving the game everything he's got? No matter who wins, it looks like it will be a lose-lose situation for Lincoln.
Lincoln Mendoza es moreno, no blanco. Nada va a cambiar eso. Es cierto, ahora vive en Sycamore, en los mayormente ricos y mayormente blancos suburbios, en lugar del barrio de los duros golpes donde crecio. Peri sigue siendo leal a sus amigos de la escuela Franklin, y sigue siendo leal a su antiguo equipo de baloncesto, aunque ahora anote canatas para la Columbus. Pero esa lealtrad se convierte en un problema cuando el nuevo equipo de Lincoln se enfrenta en la cancha a su antiguo equipo, Como puede Lincoln jugar su mejor partido contra sus mejor amigos? Y como puede traicionar a sus nuevos companeros de equipo no dando lo mejor de sí mismo?
