One of the most important relationships in Hoops is between Cal and Lonnie. Examine their relationship. How does it change over time and why is this important to the larger arc of the novel’s plot? Use evidence to support your arguments.
Being Black is a crucial aspect of Lonnie’s identity and figures heavily into the plot of the novel. Analyze how Black identity impacts Lonnie and the plot as a whole, using specific evidence or particular scenes.
