Travel Team (2004) introduced Danny Walker, a kid too small for the travel basketball team who refuses to accept the cut. Mike Lupica uses Danny’s story to explore themes of fairness, determination, and the gap between size and ability that matters so much in youth sports. Summer Ball (2007) continues Danny’s journey as he attends an elite basketball camp.
There are two books in the Danny Walker/Travel Team series, published between 2004 and 2007.
The first book in the Danny Walker/Travel Team series is Travel Team, published in 2004.
Danny Walker is a small but talented basketball player who gets cut from his town’s travel team because of his size. His father, a former local basketball star, helps him form his own team of rejected players. Travel Team (2004) and Summer Ball (2007) follow Danny as he proves that heart and skill matter more than height.
