About Home Court Advantage:

A long standing rivalry is forced to come to an end, but might also start a new beginning.

Nola Young has worked hard to step outside of her superstar parents’ spotlight. Yes, she may be genetically inclined to be a basketball star, but she’s made sure to prove her talent. She’d enjoy her time at the top more if it weren’t for her rival from college- Brittney Lee. Hot headed and constantly on Nola’s heels, the two can’t help but perpetuate the on court rivalry the media loves to play up.

Brittney Lee is having her best year yet. With her first championship ring on her finger and finally out the closet, and guilt free, she’s ready to change up her life. When she’s a free agent traded to the newly expanded Miami Waves, listening to her gut hasn’t backfired yet. But… why is Nola Young here too?

After unexpected career changes, Nola and Brittney find themselves, once rivals, now teammates. Back in close proximity, their college days and interconnected lives bubble to the surface with a chemistry they’re both in denial over. But are they honest enough to put their animosity to the side for their new team, especially when their feelings threaten to complicate things more?
