Score: Vorpal 54 – Roanoke 44
1:41 remaining – 3rd Quarter
Possession: Roanoke Storm
The ball zipped from Marcus "Flash" Daniels to Tyrese Caldwell, then back to Flash—who immediately launched forward.
Evan Cooper tried to stick with him, but Flash bent low, hugging the ball like a magnet to his hip.
One move. One blur. One sidestep.
He split the defense.
Then tossed it—
—High.
Too high?
No. Not for him.
Kagetsu Renjiro exploded.
"THUNDERCLAP STYLE: PHASE TWO—SKY LANCE!"
He cut from the weak side, rising like lightning ripping the clouds.
BANG!
Two-handed alley-oop slam.
"OOOOHHH!"
The backboard trembled.
The rim cried.
The gym roared.
…
Commentator Jamie:
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? THE HUMAN THUNDERCLAP JUST DETONATED IN THE SKY!!"
Coach Doyle:
"I've seen Kagetsu play a dozen times… but this? He's not playing basketball—he's conducting a storm!"
