Thom Powers on More Than A Game

"More Than a Game shows how bonds are formed and tested. Belman makes each player as distinct and significant as the celebrity-to-be who plays among them. Coach Dru did a stint in the corporate world before finding meaning mentoring youths and shaping them into a remarkable team. His son, Little Dru, overcame the limitations of his short stature to become an accomplished player. Rounding out the “Fab Four” are Sian, a stocky athlete who also played football; and Willie, whose harsh life experiences have forced him to grow up fast. They became the “Fab Five” with the addition of Romeo Travis, who joined the clique later and had to prove himself."
