Never Foul a Jump Shooter: A Guide to Basketball Lingo, Lessons, and LaughsPaperback, 30 September 2017

NEVER FOUL A JUMP SHOOTER, A Guide To Basketball Lingo, Lessons and Laughs, began as the author having fun with a few quirky basketball expressions, such as "penetrate and dish" and "a foul waiting to happen." But then it just kept growing into a humorous look at wonderfully colorful basketball expressions.

But this is not a dictionary. Or a story with beginning, middle and end.

The next time you're watching a game and you hear an announcer say, "The bank is open," or "it's raining threes" or a certain someone ask, "how can a foul smell nice?", just turn to this book, find the term and have a chuckle. Because basketball is about life, and life is better when we can all laugh at ourselves just a little.
