THE GAME OVER TIME

A high school basketball star goes for the winning basket, he jumps, aims and while in the air is magically transferred back in time to the African savannah. He must hunt to survive, to feed self and to feed his tribe. Returning to his real time, he makes the shot, becomes the hero and in the process realized where all the moves of life and sports originate from. Sports, basketball metaphor and evolution. All you need is a gazelle or an impala or a donkey made to look like an impala. Locations/ cast: filled gymnasium, boy's room, 20 extras for tribe of a millions years ago, coach, teams of 5 player and an African savannah. This short story is turning out to be a real bear to script and I need help.
