One day I was running down the court until my teammate Tori got trapped. She didn't know what to do and there was only 10 seconds left. She hesitated looking back and forth until suddenly someone yelled throw it over her head. Tori looked up and flung the ball in the air. Just then I saw it was coming right for me! "Could this really be it,"I thought." I get to shoot." The ball hit the ground with a loud booming sound as it headed for the boundary! This could be my chance. I ran for it and snatched it right before it touched the bold yellow line and like a bullet I ran toward the basket dribbling the ball. Then I stopped and aimed, and I did it! We won! The crowd cheered wildly chanting my name. That had to be the best day of my life!
