The 2016-17 Basketball Kings season is the ongoing 3rd season of a season/tournament that was created back in 2015 by teenager and now high school freshman Kevin Mayse, Jr and his friends Austin Handley (8th Grade), Travis Rollins (high school freshman), Billy Rahm (high school freshman), and Cody Rahm (6th Grade). In 2014 when Kevin was in 6th grade at Delaware Elementary School, he decided that he was going to start his own basketball season. At the time, he decided that he was only going to play a 40 game season. Kevin began the season by starting 31-0 before losing in a 3-on-3 game in which he lost 42-41. Kevin would end his 2014 season 32-8. The following school year, which was the 2014-15 school year, he started at 7th grade at Glenwood Leadership Academy. He didn't know anyone until one day, he was going to the office, and spotted his friend Travis. Then he spotted another one of his friends, Austin, which he knew because they lived about 2-3 blocks away from each other at the time, about 45 minutes later. About 3-4 weeks later, Austin came down to Kevin's house to play basketball. Kevin would win by 8 points. After the game was over, Kevin and Austin went inside to cool down considering they had just played a game of 45 that lasted 55 minutes. After they had both drank at least 3 glasses of water, they went back in Kevin's room. Kevin would put down the score of the game which he and Austin had just played. The score of the game was 45-37 and Kevin would improve his record for the 2014-15 season that had started December 29 to 5-1. Austin saw what Kevin was doing and asked him what it was for. Kevin replied "I started my own basketball season, but this is the second year I've done it.". After hearing what Kevin had said, Austin asked Kevin if he could do a season with him. Kevin would let Austin join, and after that, they would check up on each other's records every Friday. About a week after Austin joined in with Kevin in the 2015 season, Travis would hear from Austin that he and Kevin had started their own basketball seasons. Travis went straight to Kevin, asked Kevin if he could join, and sure enough, Kevin said yes. When Travis joined, Kevin had won 3 and lost 1 for a record of 8-2, and Austin had only played 5 games and was at 4-1. Billy and Cody would not know Kevin until about 3 weeks after the school year started. Kevin would tell Billy that he, Austin, and Travis had been doing their own personal basketball season for about 5 weeks, and when Billy heard that, he immediately asked Kevin to join, and Kevin would let him. Cody would join during the second semester. Kevin and Austin led the pack for the entire season in 1st and 2nd until Austin lost to Kevin, moving Travis into second only for 8 days. The 2014-15 season would end a little lopsided as Kevin went 2-5 in his last 7, Austin would go 4-3, Travis would go 3-4, Billy would go 1-6, and Cody would go 5-2. Kevin ended in 1st at 53-14 clinching home court advantage for the entire playoffs, Austin would end at 49-14, Travis would end 48-14, Billy at 39-16, and Cody at 36-7. The playoffs would be set up a little weird. Since there was only 5 players for the season, the top seed at the end of the season would go straight to the Finals, and the bottom 4 seeds would go head-to-head in the Quarterfinals and Semi-Finals. The number 4 and 5 seeds would face-off, and the number 2 and 3 seeds would face-off. The number 4 and 5 seeds were Billy(4) and Cody(5). The number 2 and 3 seeds were Austin(2) and Travis(3). Kevin would be the number 1 seed, automatically putting him in the Finals. In the Quarterfinals, Billy would have at 2-1 lead after game 3, but Cody came back to win games 4, 5, and 6 to win the series 4-2, and head to the Semi-Finals. Austin and Travis would have the same deal as Austin jumped into a 2-0 lead before Travis won Game 3 32-29 to cut the lead to 2-1. Austin and Travis would not play another game, therefore giving Kevin the first Basketball Kings season championship. In the 2016 season, things would go way better than they did in the 2014-15 season. Austin and Kevin would both end the season with a record of 79-3, but the top seed would be decided based on a head-to-head record (Kevin won the season series in 8 games 6-2). Travis would end at 77-5, and Billy and Cody would never tell Kevin what their records were, so their records for the season would go as the last records Kevin remembered (Billy at 41-17 and Cody at 37-21). The playoffs would go the same way as they did last season with everyone in the exact same place. Billy and Cody didn't play any games in their series, but Austin and Travis did. Austin would jump out to a 2-0 lead in the Quarterfinals against Travis, and that is the way the season would end, and once again, Kevin won the season, giving him back-to-back championships. Cody and Billy will be the only ones that will not compete in the 2016-17 season. Right now the standings have Kevin undefeated at 8-0 with a 4-0 record at home, and 4-0 on the road, Travis in second at 6-0, and Austin in third at 6-2, both of his losses are to Kevin at home. In the first game between Austin and Kevin at Austin's house, Kevin would jump to a 24-19 lead before Austin went on a 15-0 run to put himself in the lead at 34-24. Kevin would end the game on a 19-0 run, winning by a score of 43-34. The next game would pin Kevin against Austin once again at Austin's house (the first time that a season would start with the same exact opponents playing at the same location). In this game, Kevin would jump to an early 25-7 lead just 10 minutes into the game before Austin would go on a 15-2 run, cutting the score to 27-20. Kevin would nail a far away layup and 3-pointer to win the game 32-20 to make himself the first player since Basketball Kings started in 2014-15 to start a season 2-0. Austin hasn't played a game since as far as Kevin knows.
