It's do or die for the Shohoku High School Basketball Team! If they want a spot in the Nationals, they need to win this game. As the second half winds down, Shohoku hangs on to a one-point lead over Ryonan despite Mitsui's collapse. Ryonan keeps the pressure on with their best players, Uozumi, Fukuda and Sendoh, giving it all they've got. Sakuragi steps up defensively, and now he's Shohoku's last hope of staying alive in the tournament, but is he up to the challenge?
