"Serrano pushes back against the the stats and analytics that have come to dominate sports coverage in favor of an emotionally driven appreciation of hoops stars such as Tim Duncan and Sue Bird."—San Antonio Express-News

"Serrano is one of the few writers whose on-the-page enthusiasm is infectious, who can describe a particular spin move executed during a regular season game from 2006 and successfully transfer his excitement about it to the reader—even if you didn’t watch that game, never cared about that team, are only hearing about that player for the first time."—LitHub, Most Anticipated List

"Serrano is irresistibly passionate, a fan-writer who greets each game as a chance to be awed...Infectiously enthusiastic appraisals of NBA and WNBA stars."—Kirkus Review
