China vs. Germany (1)

The semi-finals were finally here. 

Marcus led the Chinese team, his head held high as the crowd watched them. The arena erupted into cheers right away. They were in their home court, after all. 

However, it didn't feel like that for the longest time. They were doubted, overlooked, and called a 'mess.' However, they were now the hope of basketball in China, with people who weren't even interested in the sport tuning in because of their journey. 

And, of course, because of Kai's good looks. 

The stands were now packed with fans from all corners of the world. The Global Games was nearing its end, so more people had arrived in their country. 

Grandma Bingbing hadn't shown up yet, which didn't surprise him. She'd promised to save her appearance for the finals, and if there was one thing he'd learned recently, it was that his grandmother always kept her word.
