Synopsis

Dash the Flash grew nearly a foot last year. Now, he's taller, faster, and stronger than everyone else. Dash out jumps defenders and sinks big shots, all the while making it look too easy. There's just one problem -- his teammates are having a hard time keeping up! His passes are missing the mark, and his friends are getting frustrated with Dash putting on a one man show. Dash has some work to do to prove he's not all Flash and no substance.
