Hot Hand: A Comeback Kids Novel

Hot Hand: A Comeback Kids Novel

by Mike Lupica

Billy Raynor has the best jump shot in his school’s basketball league. But since his father is also his basketball coach, things can get pretty complicated – especially when his parents are in the middle of a divorce. Billy’s little brother needs his family more than ever before, but his dad is too worried over the championship game to notice. Can Billy find a way to be a good teammate on and off the court?

Watch Mike Lupica discuss The Comeback Kids Novels on The Today Show.
