Plot
The 15-year-old Sora Kurumatani lived his whole life with only one dream – to become an excellent basketball player. With his height of 149 cm, one could not dream of a professional league, but a stubborn character did not allow the guy to give up.
Entering a new school, he immediately tried to join the basketball club. But what he saw struck him. The guys with high growth and excellent individual abilities did not want to play. The club was a bunch of hooligans.

Members of the club did not take the new player seriously, because small growth practically did not give the boy a chance to be useful in the team. But Sora showed his playing qualities, and after a while he was able to inspire teammates to be fully committed in games in order to return the team to its former glory…
