Question

Which sentence about basketball will increase tension by creating urgency? The final 1-minute buzzer went off. The final game was our opportunity to be undefeated champions. I could taste the victory of success . My throbbing ankle only fueled my determination to win the game.

Answer 1

I think it is the last one where the ankle got hurt because for me instead of reading what the character had self esteems about, I would rather get something to stop the player from playing the game to see what happens and the story be more of a page turner than me actually reading and kind of predicting what will happen next.
