At night, the arena where the Dust Dogs were playing against the Raptors wasn't anything fancy. The kind with floors made of cracked concrete and lights that flicker like they might die any second.
But the crowd was loud, real loud. Some people were there because they bet all their money on this game. Others just wanted to see something crazy happen.
The Dust Dogs wore old gray jerseys that looked like they'd been washed too many times. The Raptors had these bright blue uniforms, all clean and new. On paper, the Raptors should have destroyed them. But tonight? Things didn't go how anyone expected.
The game started slow. Roam won the tip-off, grabbing the ball like he had something to prove. He passed it to Saya, who sprinted down the court. She threw it to Tylo, who shot a three-pointer, swish, right through the net.
