Craig Townsend had carefully figured out all the angles. Recently Discharged from the Air Force, he enrolled at Belmont Junior College to upgrade his academic average and to win a basketball scholarship from a large college. It took some time for his coach to realize that Craig was notjust a good basketball player, but a calculating young man bent on achieving his personal objectives. The Playmaker is the fast-moving story of the selfish scheming of a shrewd ball-handler who wanted to call all the shots himself and fit other people into his pattern. For Craig Townsend, the ace playmaker, the lessone he had to learn about sportsmanship and cooperation were hard to master.
