'Through hard work and lots of practice, Patty's basketball skills have improved so much he's invited to the East Coast tournament in Sydney. Even though he has to miss out on spending time in his beloved Torres Strait, it's an opportunity too exciting to pass up. But an injury puts it all in jeopardy. Could Patty's dream be over before it's begun? A fantastic and fun basketball series that will entertain young readers, inspire kids to achieve their goals through sport and showcase Patty's pride in his Indigenous heritage.'

'Sport-mad Patty Mills is a star on the footy field, an ace at athletics, a ripper at rugby.
So when he tries out for basketball, it should be a breeze . . .
Patty expects to be a great basketballer straight away, just like his uncle Danny. But he soon discovers there's whole lot more to the game than just shooting hoops.
He's got a lot to learn, on and off the court - and it's going to take plenty of practice.
Will he and his school team be good enough to get into the finals?' (Synopsis)
