Exposition: There I was, first basketball game of the season. My heart beating, hands shaking. After couple seconds, the tip-off happened. My center jumps and smacks the ball towards me before the other team's center  could even jump. As i was dribbling the ball, I walked up the court. My defender quickly  goes for the ball and I saw it coming. As soon as he moved his arm for the ball, i threw it to my center for 2 points. After, we ran back on defense. Their Point Guard walked up the court and right when he passed the half court line, I extended my arm towards the ball. He lost balance, so I ran towards the other side of the court while dribbling the ball. An easy layup was attempted and it was a success. I was never nervous after those 2 easy plays because I got comfortable playing with my team.


Inciting Incident: I was nervous to play in the first basketball game, but got comfortable as soon as a couple plays happened. Plus those 2 plays changed my perspective in a real basketball game.

Rising Action: As the game kept going, I got more and more comfortable playing for the team.

Climax: I made the biggest shot to win the game.

Falling Action: I missed the shot for the game winner, but my center got it and passed it back and I shot it again and won the game.

Conclusion: I was doing great the whole game, and when it came time to win the game by the shot that I took, I missed. We still had a couple seconds left and then my center got the ball, throw it back at me and I was left open, so I took the shot, and made it for the win.
