El decimosexto libro del Diario del Wimpy Kid, un auténtico fenómeno mundial.

Greg Heffley y los deportes no se llevan bien.

Tras una desastrosa jornada deportiva en la escuela, Greg decide que lo de sudar la camiseta no es lo suyo, pero acepta a regañadientes la sugerencia de su mamá de inscribirse en basquetbol.

Las pruebas para entrar en el equipo le salen fatal y Greg cree que no lo escogerán. Contra todo pronóstico, lo admiten. Al inicio de la temporada, las probabilidades de ganar un partido parecen bajas, pero cuando todo esté en juego, ¿estará Greg a la altura de las circunstancias o tirará la toalla antes de tiempo?
