After the hard-fought win against Saint Paul Missionary School, Jamar was riding high. His stellar performance had put him at the top of the tournament leaderboard with impressive stats: 24.5 points per game, 6 assists, and 4 rebounds. Close on his heels was Malik Thompson, a shooting guard from Coach Kyle's Team at Martin Luther King Jr. Senior High School, who was averaging 20.7 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds. Both players had been pivotal in their teams' advancement to the quarterfinals, and the buzz around who would be the tournament's MVP was growing.
However, Jamar wasn't interested in the MVP talks right now. He was focused on the mission prompt that had appeared before him.
