He's a bird.
He's Jordan.
No, he's Julius Madonna: the high school basketball phenomenon who invented the crossover.
After his mother's blind-sighted engagement to a wealthy, white banker, their family's move from the Oaklands hood to Hollywood is sudden and life-changing. His new school, Hollywood High, is big, clean, and nice but he soon learns not all that glitters is gold. Unable to relate to the new students, the city of Angels becomes a private hell. Until he meets Gianna, a smart and spoiled color-blind gymnast. Their connection, chemistry, and curiosity are immediate. Together, they discover an unimaginable conspiracy against Julius. An organization is trying to capitalize early by seducing and grooming the future of the NBA. Julius and Gianna will do everything in their power to ruin the conspiracy. The number one ranked player in the world finds himself twisted in a sticky web full of lies, gifts, betrayal, and deadly violence.
In the midst of it all, Julius must find time for the two things he cherishes above all: love and basketball.
