Summary[]
Akagi starts teaching Sakuragi how to do a layup. As Sakuragi fails every attempt, Rukawa is asked to demonstrate, which ends in a fight instigated by Sakuragi. The next morning, Haruko finds Sakuragi in the park still trying to make a layup. After various failed attempts, Haruko explains to Sakuragi that he needs to use less force with his hands, which allows him to make a successful shot. While training at night in the gym, Sakuragi meets Hikoichi Aida, a first year player from Ryonan, who is convinced by Sakuragi that he, not Rukawa, is the new best player from Shohoku. The night before the practice match against Ryonan, Akagi teaches Sakuragi how to rebound. At Ryonan, Sakuragi is not selected as a starter for the match but is reassured by Anzai who tells him that he is "the secret weapon".
