Synopsis

Greg Heffley and sport do not go together, and after a competition at school goes badly, he decides he is finished with any kind of sport. His mum encourages him to try again, and Greg reluctantly signs up for basketball.

Try-outs are chaotic and Greg is convinced he will not make the cut, but he ends up on the worst team. As the season begins, the chances of winning even one game seem slim, and Greg faces a moment where the outcome rests with him.
