I have now finished the book and i would have to say it was my favorite of the three books. This story basically had a happy ending. He is destined to become a basketball star. Also he is destined to be a "nomad" as rowdy says and travel the world, never settling in one place. Also in the end him and rowdy become friends again in their own weird way. The book simply ended with them playing basketball together and not keeping score.
Overall this book was great. The author was very funny and i kept laughing throughout the whole book. I also liked how he would repeat something several times in different ways. Also the plot is just amazing, i mean how many times do you hear a story about an Indian boy going into white society and becoming such a good basketball player and being so all around successful. Also rowdy was a very interesting character. He was the toufest kid on the rez because his dads an alcoholic who beats on him all the time. All though he does not show it i think that he is really troubled because of his whole life. When junior leaves the reservation he does not know what to do so he gets extremely mad at him but later on he comes to find that he needs junior because he is the only person that understands him. This was an amazing book.
