When the team's all-star player, Maddie, starts calling her "shrimp," Coco realizes it's not actually a joke and that she's going to need new moves if she wants to score both on and off the court. But her resilience is put to the ultimate test when a courtside catastrophe threatens to put an end to the new world she's worked so hard to be a part of.
