Bab 505: Shizi Dogs vs. Juren Champions (10)

The silence on the court was deafening. 

The ball bounced once, twice, echoing in the stillness as it dropped cleanly through the net. 

Kai stood there, arm still outstretched in his shooting form, almost like he was frozen in time. 

The scoreboard has been updated. 

62-63. 

The Shizi Dogs were back on top.

For a moment, it felt like the entire world had stopped. The crowd was stunned into silence, breaths collectively held. It was as if no one could comprehend what had just happened. The commentator's voice, usually booming with excitement, came out as a whisper.

"Here goes our passing king," he muttered in disbelief. "Kai Guo, taking the shot… Why did he wait until now?"

Jian was already sprinting back to guard Andy, but he stopped dead in his tracks, eyes snapping to Kai. The realization hit him like a punch to the gut. 

He had left Kai wide open. He had underestimated him. He had thought Kai wouldn't shoot.
