The Basket Counts by Matt Christopher
Mel Jensen is new to the Titan basketball squad, but he might as well be sitting on the bench since the team's star player, Caskie Bennett, refuses to pass to him. It is not until an accident unites the two in a daring rescue that the coldness between the two boys thaws.
