My Shot, Balancing It All and Standing Tall is a memoir by Elena Delle Donne. The WNBA star is famous for her amazing basketball skills. Delle Donne gives readers an inside look at her personal and professional life, sharing her journey through the ups and downs of being a pro athlete.

Being a standout player in high school, through the struggles of balancing college sports and personal life, to her rise as a WNBA MVP. 

What stands out most is her openness about the difficult decision to step away from basketball for a period of time to take care of her sister Lizzie— who was born with special needs. 

The book is not just about basketball but about the many factors of life. It talks about: family, health, personal fulfillment, and passion. Delle Donne discusses living with Lyme disease and the physical and emotional toll it has taken on her body and career. But despite these challenges she returns to the court stronger. 

For fans of basketball and sports in general, My Shot is a thrilling inside look at the world of professional women’s basketball. 

Delle Donne’s message is clear: it’s okay to prioritize mental health, and taking care of yourself is just as important as any pro sport.

I’d highly recommend My Shot to readers who enjoy sports biographies. It’s a book about believing in yourself, fighting for what you love, and staying true to who you are, no matter the obstacles you face.
