SUMMARY
Once hailed as “The Prodigy of the Court,” he was the future of his school’s basketball program, Yuuto’s world crumbled after a devastating knee injury which put him out of the sport for months. While he healed, a new star Shun rose to claim the spotlight, and Yuuto’s name faded into the background. Now cleared to play again, Yuuto returns to find himself no longer the team’s ace, no longer the center of attention even his longtime crush barely notices him.
But Yuuto isn’t the same player he was before. Armed with a mysterious system that pushes him past his limits and forces him to turn his weaknesses into weapons, he begins a grueling journey of self-reinvention. Late nights of endless shooting drills. Early mornings of quiet resolve. Rivalries that sting and fuel his hunger. And somewhere between sweat-stained jerseys and sidelong glances from the cheerleader he’s always admired, Yuuto discovers what it truly means to fight his way back.
