JT Stone is a national standout, the number one recruited high-school basketball Phenom from the inner city of St. Louis, Missouri. His plans for college ball, followed by the NBA, are in direct conflict with his Mother, Loretta Stone’s schemes. She’s a widowed, single mother of two boys with short-term aspirations of her small family rising out of her perceived poverty on the wings of JT’s great athletic ability. Their conflict will be ultimately resolved by a power that neither of them can anticipate or comprehend – fate.

But, he becomes a trusted friend when their lives meaningfully intersect. He must be the bridge between the gap of Loretta’s dreams of NBA greatness and the reality with which she is forced to accept.
