All's fair in love and basketball.
Monica Wright and Quincy McCall grew up in the same neighborhood and have known each other since childhood. As they grow into adulthood, they fall in love, but they also share another all-consuming passion: basketball. As Quincy and Monica struggle to make their relationship work, they follow separate career paths though high school and college basketball and, they hope, into stardom in big-league professional ball.
"Mawkishly heartfelt, but actress Sanaa Lathan performs as if she were lit from within."
— Peter Rainer
"It's a fine example of a conventionally made picture which follows all the rules yet still emerges as fresh and original."
— Stephanie Zacharek
