Third person's point of view
Friday, June 24; 6:30am
Akagi, Y/n, and Sakuragi are inside the gym, practicing shooting.
"96 – Ah!" Sakuragi said his shoot did not went in.
"Stop! That's not right!" Akagi spoke. "You need to use your wrists."
"Really?" Sakuragi questioned.
"Also, you hold the ball wrong." Y/n added.
"Put the right hand on the ball just like this." Akagi instructed. Sakuragi asked about what to do with his left hand, Akagi said it is only for assist. "When you catch the ball, use the same way."
Y/n passes the ball to Sakuragi, and he caught it just like how Akagi told him to. They start practicing shooting again.
The second and third game of the finals are going to start, Shohoku has a special rigorous training program for Sakuragi. Akagi not only has to teach Sakuragi how to shoot, but he also must teach Sakuragi how to join Shohoku's offense, with Y/n's help of course.
Sakuragi tries to shoot the ball in a wrong position with that he got scolding from Akagi. "You body can't be tilted, jump straight up. Don't you know that?"
"You have to think about your posture often, now it is the most critical time." Y/n said to Sakuragi calmly. "If your basic skill is wrong, no matter how you practice is no use."
"The basic is the most important!" Sakuragi shouted. Y/n nodded proudly while Akagi looked stunned. "Right, Gori?"
"Very true!" Akagi shouted back. "What I'm saying is, that you'll have to practice a lot, till your body knows these moves very well."
Akagi even has a planned schedule for Sakuragi's shooting practice. Their shooting practice will continue until Friday.
