Overview:

Jimmy desperately wants to make the basketball team. But surprisingly, it looks like Sean is surpassing him as a possible star player. Adding to Jimmy's pressure is his academic status – he's been given a few warnings since he can't seem to balance school and sports. When he convinces hyperactive Spinner to skip a Ritalin pill and give it to him instead, he plays a great game – but not as a team player.
