Chapter 11: Picked by the Lakers
2016, June 24.
Today is the day of the NBA Draft. Yu Huo put on the new suit he bought with frugality and part-time job, feeling very nervous and excited.
After Yu Huo participated in the Lakers' trial training, he returned home, waiting for draft day.
Yu Huo came to Brooklyn a day earlier, and this year's draft will be held at the Barclays Center Arena.
"Huh, it still feels a little unbelievable..."
Looking at the height of 10 centimeters in the mirror and the stout body that I had never had before, I smiled slightly, and the figure of a hot man appeared in his mind.
Yu Huo strode out of the hotel door and muttered to himself, "Good luck to me, Kobe!"
Similarly, in a mansion in Los Angeles, a bald man is naked on the sofa watching TV.
"Honey, are you waiting for the draft live broadcast?"
Vanessa walked out of the bedroom and sat next to Kobe, snuggling in his arms.
"Yes, dear, there are a lot of good seedlings this year..." Kobe said, "Call Natalia and Jaina too. After all, this is the team I have been with for 20 years. Look at Kupchak. Your choice."
Vanessa poured a glass of juice, lay lazily on the leather sofa, and asked: "Do you have any promising rookies?"
"Ben Simmons, Brandon Ingram, Jaylen Brown, Buddy Hild are all good choices," Bryant replied, and then smiled again. "There is one more person, hope He can be selected too..."
…
"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, and welcome to the NBA Draft at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn!"
With that shiny bald head, Adam Xiaohua read the opening speech on the concentrating podium, "Tonight's draft will kick off the 2016-2017 season. This will be the best season in history."
The audience responded with warm applause. Yu Huo was sitting in the middle row. Although he was also a member of the draft, his current status is not comparable to those of the princes who became famous early in college. He can only buy his own tickets. Entering the scene, mixed among the audience.
But Yu Huo doesn't care. As long as there is a ball to play, what does it matter if he is not taken seriously for a while? After all, Yu Huo has been "suffocating everyone" for 20 years, and he doesn't care about this.
Facing his own trough calmly, this is also the precious wealth that experience has brought to Yu Huo. In the future, when Yu Huo experiences a tragic defeat and missed victory, he will quickly cheer up.
The draft officially begins!
This year's No. 1 pick was won by the Philadelphia 76ers, the team logo of the 76ers appeared on the big screen, and a 5-minute countdown was opened at the same time, which was the time left for the team to choose.
However, as the holder of the No. 1 lottery, the 76ers clearly have a choice.
"The Philadelphia 76ers, the No. 1 pick in the 2016 draft, chose...Ben Simmons!"
Like Yu Huo's memory, Ben Simmons was still selected by the 76ers as a super genius with the same prestige and fame.
His excellent performance in college was shown on the big screen, and a star template-Lebron James was given.
"Ben Simmons... known as the West Emperor, and together with Embiid as the Philadelphia Twin Emperors," Yu Huo murmured to himself with a smile, "It's a pity, not everyone will be the next Lebron. Affordable."
"Hey, what are you guys talking about!" There happened to be a fan wearing a 76ers jersey next to Yu Huo. Amidst the noise, he could still hear Yu Huo talking. I really don’t know if it’s a good ear. I still feel so idle, "What kind of green onion, you guy, dare to say bad things about our Simmons?!"
The guy was fat and he seemed to be trying to scare Yu Huo, but Yu Huo just gave him a surprised look, adjusted his collar, and ignored him.
"You guy, what do you look like in a suit in the audience? I thought I was in the draft?" Seeing that Yu Huo didn't speak, he was immediately emboldened, "He looks quite tall and strong, but it must be a pity. Stupid, right? You can’t get into the NBA and chew your tongue behind your back. Do you really think you are something?
The man babbled for a long time, his mouth was dry, and Yu Huo ignored him.
"Done?" Yu Huo unscrewed his coke and took a sip, because he saw that this man's Coke rolled down the chair to the seat below while he was excited just now, "Don't you Don’t believe me, if I’m not correct, you can come to me at that time."
"Looking for you? Which green onion are you, where can I find you?"
Yu Huo pointed to the large screen in front, and said, "N, B, A."
Yu Huo's voice was not cruel or even calm, but his eyes at the moment were like a viper staring at its prey, making the fan shudder, and deliberately ridiculed a few words, but he couldn't open his mouth, and suddenly withered and sat down quietly. Watch the draft.
Next, the Lakers' second overall pick, as in memory, selected the talented player from Duke University-Brandon Ingram.
"Oh~" Yu Huo loosened his clenched fist, a little disappointed, he still had a hint of fantasy that Pkuchek was blinded by the dog and looked at himself?
Secretly laughing that he wanted to be beautiful, Yu Huo also relaxed a little. Don't let the famous genius, take the second place pick to choose a little-known little person, how can this be possible.
The next draft went on as planned, and there was no change from the 2016 draft in Yu Huo's memory.
Nearly two hours later, the 30 first-round selections were completed, and Adam Xiaohua also stepped off the stage. The second-round show can't condescend the president to announce it.
A somewhat blessed middle-aged man succeeded him and began to remember the results of the second round of the draft for each team.
This process is much faster, because the second-round show does not need to be on stage to shake hands and take pictures with the president, directly report his name and announce some of his personal information, and then it will be the next person's turn.
In other words, Yu Huo can actually sit at home and watch TV today like Kobe, but after thinking about it, Yu Huo decided to come here to experience the atmosphere of the world’s strongest basketball league, even if he can’t. Being selected can also provide a little motivation to fight.
If you can't enter the NBA, start with the NBDL.
If you can't make it into the NBDL, start in the amateur league.
With the [Kobe template], he firmly believes that he can always break into the sky.
"No. 43, the Houston Mosaic team chose Zhou Qi."
Seeing a tall and thin figure, Yu Huo remembered that there will be two compatriots participating in the draft this year, one is the "big devil" Zhou Qi, and the other is the rising star of the CBA Wang Zhelin.
There are the last 17 places, and Yu Huo is ready to lose the election, and he can't help but feel a little lost.
However, it didn't take long for Yu Huo to have some surprises and expectation from the host's voice.
"No. 51 overall, Los Angeles Lakers..."
Lakers? The Lakers have only two picks this year, one is the second pick of Ingram, and the other is Zubac with the 32nd pick in 2 rounds. Now this third pick...
Suddenly, Yu Huo's cell phone rang. It was a text message from the NBA official: Hello, Dear Draft Player, you have been selected by the 51st pick in the second round...
