The First Slam Dunk

Le meneur de jeu de Shohoku, Ryota Miyagi, joue toujours intelligemment et à la vitesse de l'éclair, contournant ses adversaires tout en gardant son sang-froid. Né et élevé à Okinawa, Ryota avait un frère aîné de trois ans de plus. Sur les traces de ce dernier, joueur local célèbre dès son plus jeune âge, Ryota est également devenu accro au basket. En deuxième année de lycée, Ryota fait partie de l'équipe de basket-ball du lycée Shohoku, aux côtés de Sakuragi, Rukawa, Akagi et Mitsui, et participe au championnat national inter-lycées. À présent, ils sont sur le point de se mesurer aux champions en titre, les joueurs du lycée Sannoh Kogyo.

The First Slam Dunk

Miyagi Ryota è il playmaker e l'avanguardia dello Shohoku, con le sue giocate intelligenti e la sua velocità fulminea confonde gli avversari mostrando sempre una calma apparente. Nato e cresciuto a Okinawa, Ryota aveva un fratello di tre anni più grande. Come a rincorrere il fratello maggiore che era un famoso giocatore locale, anche Ryota si immerge nella pallacanestro fin da giovane. Arrivato al secondo anno di scuola superiore, Ryota partecipa all'inter-high insieme ai suoi compagni del club di basket del liceo Shohoku: Sakuragi, Rukawa, Akagi e Mitsui. Ora la squadra sta per sfidare i colossi dell'istituto tecnico Sannoh.

The First Slam Dunk

Miyagi Ryota is the point guard of the Shohoku High School basketball club. With his clever moves and lightning speed, he confuses opponents while never stopping to radiate great calm.

Born and raised in Okinawa, Ryota had a brother three years older. Always emulating his older brother, who was a famous local player, Ryota became involved with basketball at a young age.

Now, in his second year of high school, Ryota, along with his friends Sakuragi, Rukawa, Akagi and Mitsui, from the Shohoku High School basketball club, is participating in Inter-High. Together, the team is about to compete against the giants of Sannoh Technical Institute.
