School Library Journal - 04/01/2026 Gr 3–5—Focusing on NBA and WNBA teams, the new titles in this ongoing series each pit two rival basketball teams against each other, using facts, statistics, famous moments, and iconic players to argue which team would come out on top in a match-up. The writing blends play-by-play narration with detailed statistics, tracing teams from their beginnings and emphasizing peak rivalry eras, often in the 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s. While some readers may wish for more coverage of modern players, the athletes highlighted are historically significant and central to each rivalry. Long paragraphs deliver depth, with photos and text boxes breaking up the text. Each book ends by asking readers to weigh the evidence and decide the winner themselves. A table of contents, a timeline, a glossary, a list of additional resources, and an index are included. VERDICT A winning choice for basketball shelves and fans who enjoy debate-driven sports nonfiction - Copyright 2026 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
