Miguel Dinero wants to dominate on the court because he's heard his whole life that it's his destiny. The country's #1 pre-varsity recruit with a pre-written path all the way to the NBA, rendering everything else, such as school, secondary. He expects the ball in his hand at crunch time, expects the spotlight, expects to win. Wes, on the other hand, NEEDS all of this. For him, success in basketball, becoming the player his dad told him to be before dad shipped out to serve in the military, is a mission. No one on the court takes the game as seriously as Wes. Both kids, friends and friendly rivals for years, are ready to take over the team. The problem? There's only one ball.
