Hot Hand,written by Mike Lupica, is a story about 10 year old Billy Raynor. Billy loves basketball and plays for a really good team, coached by his dad. The bad news is, his dad just moved out for a “trial separation” and it sends the Raynor boys into a tailspin. Billy and his dad always seem to be arguing and Billy’s little brother is getting bullied at school. The only good thing Billy has going is basketball. That is until his dad benches him. If you like sports books, this is for you. There’s also a deeper story though about supporting one’s family.
