Jack was the best basketball player on his team, but he never passed
the ball. Coach Bayless told Jack that he played too selfishly and that it
was time for him to become a better teammate. Until he could learn to
pass, Jack would have to sit on the bench during games.

For two weeks of practice, Jack worked on passing. At the next game,
he sat out until it was almost over. The team was losing by two points.
Jack dribbled up to the basket, but he knew that he couldn't make the
shot with three defenders covering him. Then he saw Tommy, who was
in position to make a three-point basket. Jack passed the ball, and
Tommy made the shot as time ran out. The team won, and Jack
learned an important lesson.
