Under the spotlight below, gangly giants—Kristaps Porziu0146u0123is, Boban Marjanoviu0107, Bol Bol—galloped and grinded as their 7'6" forebear watched, still and silent.

The 7'4" Marjanoviu0107 sprinted back on defense and gulped down air; Bradley started to feel faint and reclined his electric wheelchair to raise his blood pressure. The 7'3" Porziu0146u0123is powered home a two-handed dunk; Bradley enveloped a can of Dr Pepper in his claw-like hands and sipped carefully.
