Description

Two-time All-Star and thirteen-year NBA veteran Caron Butler has an impressive basketball record. He was once Big East Co-Player of the Year at UConn, the 10th overall pick of the 2002 NBA Draft and a key player for the Dallas Mavericks in their championship-winning season in 2011.

But before Butler had a possibility to prove himself at the court, he spent his time trying to prove himself at the streets, as a gang member and drug dealer in his place of birth of Racine, Wisconsin. He saw friends gunned down in the bloody street wars near his home, was once arrested nearly 15 times and wound up in the back of bars and in solitary confinement before his 15th birthday.

Tuff Juice shares Caron Butler’s atypical journey from his delinquent youth in the streets of Racine to his role as an accomplished pro basketball player, dedicated husband and father, active philanthropist and burgeoning businessman. Along the way, the book explores the unbelievable affect his single mother’s unconditional love and his college coach’s unwavering make stronger had on him, and what drives him to be such a success in basketball and in life.
