By Anthony Odunsi

Star basketball player Anthony Odunsi is faced with the biggest "wake up" call of his life.

This story is an uncanny approach to the sports life through the eyes of a young Nigerian basketball player that shattered cultural and racial limitations, but not without controversy. Under the constant scrutiny of being a student-athlete, he makes mistakes along the way that ultimately influence his decision to attend 4 different colleges in 4 years.

The Wake Up Call, Exposing the Truth About Basketball, is the story that gives you a behind the scenes look at the relentless world of sports.
