From New Jersey's rough and competitive world of playground basketball to the unforgiving, sleep-deprived reality of surgical training, Make Every Shot Count offers a gripping account of how a young boy with an overwhelming passion for basketball utilizes lessons learned on the court to overcome adversity and achieve his goals. Often hilarious and at times heart wrenching, this captivating and honest narrative leaves the reader mesmerized by a unique perspective on two very different worlds. A book for the underdog, the lessons of teamwork, discipline, and persistent practice are motivating and inspiring and demonstrate the importance of believing in your own potential while trusting your instincts to do what is right.

Praise for Make Every Shot Count
"My old coach Phil Jackson used to say, 'Basketball is a metaphor for life, and life is a metaphor for basketball.' Bruce captures that statement perfectly in his memoir. The pursuit of greatness in the game of basketball in his youth carved the path of Bruce's life, giving him the work ethic, confidence and spirit to build a great career and family. In the end, that's what youth sports are supposed to be about. This book strengthens my faith in that ideal." - Steve Kerr, Head Coach, Golden State Warriors
