Shizi Dogs vs. Juren Champions (5)

"Will he make it? Will he finally make it?" David asked, his voice echoing throughout the court. 

The crowd watched as the ball bounced slightly on the board. Some already sighed in disappointment. However, they swallowed their disappointment when the ball made its way to the hoop. 

The crowd turned to each other with wide eyes, stunned gasps, and cheers blending in with the murmurs of disbelief. 

The scoreboard clicked up.

30-17. 

Kai felt his heart pound amidst the noise, but he didn't let the shock set in. 

He turned quickly, eyes locking onto his teammates, who were already staring at him in disbelief. 

"Come on!" Kai's voice cut through the court. "We're not out of this. Play like we've always practiced!"

The clarity in his voice snapped the team out of their stupor. They nodded, adrenaline surging.
