Game 3 of the state tournament: part-9

After a moment of celebration Jason and the rest of the guys calmed down as they all got into position for the free throw.

Jason walked up to the free throw line and accepted the ball from the referee. He took a deep breathe before dribbling the ball a few times.

As Jason brought the ball up he couldn't help but swear in his head 'Jesus! I'm just using my left hand to guide the ball and it's still hurting like a bitch.'

As the ball left his hand Jason could already tell that the shot was way worse than any other free throw that he had attempted this whole season.

His left hand had faltered and moved a bit right before he could release the ball. The ball flew through the air and ended up hitting the rim before bouncing off the backboard.
