description: During his basketball career at Wake Forest the undersized shooting guard Alan Williams played only 59 minutes in 120 games. Why was it worth it? What kept him coming back? These were just a few of the questions a newspaper reported asked Alan near the end of his career. Amidst laughter and tears Williams redefines success and offers a unique view of what it means to be a teammate. This moving true story shows how a seat on the end of the bench a father's battle with cancer and the sudden death of a coach teach a walk-on to find fulfillment in unexpected places.
