Molly Parker is a twelve-year-old on a mission. Ever since learning, just before her mother died of cancer, that her father is the star Boston Celtics player Josh Cameron, she's been trying to meet him. But this MVP of the championship basketball team has a hard time believing his former college sweetheart never told him she was pregnant before leaving the country to live in London. He thinks Molly must be trying to scam him for money. But Molly, living with another college friend of her mom's in Boston, just wants to get to know the father she never had. As they begin to spend time together and Molly gets to know the real Josh Cameron, she begins to wonder if her mother was right about her dad--that he has room in his heart for only two things: basketball and himself. Does Molly really want this man for a father? Together, these two strangers learn that sometimes, for things to end up the way you want them to, you have to fire up a prayer at the buzzer and hope it goes in.
