Xu Xing Ze is an impassioned basketball phenom hoping to become the best there ever was. His dreams of playing on the championship team are dashed when his sister accidentally enrolls him in a lower-ranked school with a similar-sounding name. Now, it’s up to Xu and his ragtag group of friends to prove themselves on the court against some of the top teams and players in the region.

Note: Crunchyroll decided to merge the 4th and 5th episode as episode 4. So episode 5 is 6, 6 is 7 and 7 is 8. That's why there is only 7 episodes on Crunchyroll
