"Shui Zhong Team's center, Sunny Gan, blocked Reggie Miller of Riverside High School's layup from behind! He sprinted from the backcourt all the way to catch up!"
The TV station replayed Gan Guoyang's block in slow motion, and the commentator's usually flat voice suddenly became dramatic.
It wasn't just the CBS live broadcasters who were amazed; the Los Angeles fans at the Great Western Forum were also taken by surprise.
Miller had made a steal near the three-point line (the floor wasn't changed), and there was no one ahead in the frontcourt, while Guoyang was at that time in the paint.
But by the time Miller took the ball up to the basket, Guoyang had already sprinted like a leopard to catch up and blocked the shot from behind.
The somewhat loose, subdued atmosphere in the stadium became somewhat lively because of this play.
For Los Angeles fans used to high-level college basketball and NBA games, the level of this high school competition was indeed a bit poor.
