Slam Dunk, Vol. 12 is part of the best-selling series from Eisner-nominated Takehiko Inoue, one of Japan’s greatest manga creators.

Winning isn't everything in the game of basketball, but who wants to come in second? It takes dedication and discipline to be the best, and the Shohoku High hoops team wants to be just that. They have one last year to fulfil their captain's dream of reaching the finals—will they do it?

The final four teams that will play in the round-robin tournament have been decided, and Shohoku is one of them. However, their next opponent is Kainan, known as the "Kings" for good reason—they've made it to Nationals sixteen years in a row. Ever since joining Shohoku, Akagi has dreamed of playing Kainan. His wish is about to come true, but is it one he'll soon be regretting?
