Chapter Thirteen Feeling Faded

In the match against North Carolina, Li Ke scored 14 points, 4 rebounds and 2 steals in the game, but did not get the attention of the NBA.

In Li Ke's own words: At this time, he is still far away from the NBA.

However, Durant made the NBA crazy in one game.

The report of "USA Today" mentioned Du Xiao, with the title: 37 points in his debut, and the German star conquered countless NBA executives!

Note that it is an executive, not a scout.

The title seems a bit speculative, but the content of the article includes a telephone interview with an NBA executive who did not want to be named. In the interview, the executive said: Durant's performance has amazed many NBA executives, and if necessary, they will try to get Durant at all costs.

This means that it is to make a fuss for Durant.

Who was the last NCAA player who made NBA teams rush to play with him?

Tim Duncan!

Departing from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and taking a flight to Durham International Airport, the University of Texas returned to Austin with a victory.

At Durham International Airport, Russell Spliman bought a copy of the United States Today, and then read the article about Durant in front of everyone.

"Hey, KD, did you hear that? There are NBA teams that are going to play tricks for you!"

"Don't take it seriously, just a so-called executive who didn't want to be named. I still don't know if it was fabricated by the United States today."

Du Xiao was very modest, and Abrams directly patted his back: "Don't pretend, Kevin, this is America today!"

"If it weren't for the topic of "making a secret rule that the NBA can only understand and not be expressed in words, I'm afraid this NBA executive who didn't want to be named would have directly expressed his fanfare that he is who he is!"

"By the way, Kevin, if you are in the draft, which team do you want to go to?"

"Washington Wizards? Boston Celtics? Or Houston Rockets? I don't know much..."

Durant does not have a clear NBA team he loves. He is from Washington and is a fan of McGrady and Anthony Walker. Therefore, the first thing he thinks of is these three teams.

"If it were me, I would have chosen the Rockets. I have been their fan since I was a child."

Augustine is clear-cut. He was born in New Orleans, but at that time, the Hornets were still in Charlotte and moved to New Orleans in 2002.

The Rockets are the Rockets. In high school, Augustine played for the Tower High School in Missouri, which is closer to Houston. Later, she transferred to Martin Brothers High School in Houston and attended the high school graduation ceremony at the Toyota Center in Houston.

It can be said that Augustine was influenced by the Rockets all the way.

"How about we join the Rockets, KD?"

Augustine made a naive proposal, and Du Xiao shook her head decisively: "No, DJ, my goal is the No. 1 pick."

"Okay, it depends on who has the worst record this season."

"From the early games of the season, the Memphis Grizzlies have a good chance."

"Kevin, would you like to go to Memphis?"

Li Ke also interjected because he thought of Steve Francis, but at that time, the Grizzlies were still in Vancouver.

"Of course, as long as they are willing to make me the No. 1 pick!"

It seems that Xiao Du has a deep obsession with the top scorer.

Li Ke also guessed the reason. Since high school, Du Xiao has always been the second in the United States. Michael Beasley, who has been the first in the United States since childhood, has been transferred to Greg Oden, who is the same class, but it is not his turn.

Xiao Du doesn’t want to be the second child for the rest of his life, he also wants to be the eldest child for the rest of his life.

"Sheldon, where are you?"

I don’t know why the topic is about Li Ke.

Li Ke was a little confused. Now he seems to have not yet talked about which NBA team he wants to join, but he still gave his answer.

“Any team willing to choose my pick.”

A very simple and direct answer, even without Xiao Du and the others racking their brains to understand what Li Ke means, a freshman who has no ranking in high school and no ratings cannot be too ambitious.

Hu Tianhai talked for a while at the airport, and after getting on the plane, everyone became quiet.

Li Ke asked for an eye mask and leaned against his seat and slept for a long time.

When I woke up, I did not take off my eye mask, but instead pretended to be still sleeping and entered the system.

"New Tips: Landry Fields's empty cut has been upgraded to B level."

As soon as you enter the system, a system prompt comes to you.

The air cut has been upgraded to level B, which is what Li Ke knew at the end of the game.

But after playing the game, he had no time to enter the system to check. Now, when he entered the system, he naturally went straight to the profile page.

"Host: Li Ke, position on the field: Not determined,

Height: 199cm, weight: 82kg, arm span: 200cm,

Birthday: August 23, 1988."

"Already have skills: D-level single defense, D-level steals, B-level empty cuts."

"Already possessed talents: S-level speed, S-level strength, D-level explosion, D-level flexibility, D-level endurance."

"Already possessed the trait: Class D steel will."

The empty cut is already perfect at level B. This level of empty cut is enough for him to cross the NCAA.

Even if you enter the NBA, this level of empty cut is enough.

In addition to the changes in empty cuts, Li Ke also noticed the changes in weight. From 80kg at the beginning, it is now 82kg, and the movement of hanging meat is progressing rapidly.

"The next thing is the same, practicing three-pointers with skills, practicing bounce with talent, using training matches and competitions, practicing single defense."

Li Ke's three-pointers have been improving. From the beginning of the no-confrontation training, the progress has been quite large.

I just don’t know which step I need to improve to, the system will give me a D-level skill.

His understanding of single defense also allowed him to see the shadow of C-level single defense, which was a bit like a first glance at the path in martial arts novels.

In the end, I practiced for a long time and had no progress.

The plane landed in Austin, and this away journey at the University of Texas ended here.

As soon as Li Ke got off the plane, he received a call from Los Angeles.

"Sheldon, I watched yesterday's game, you performed really well!"

On the other end of the phone, Russell Westbrook's loud voice rang, and Li Ke showed a heartfelt smile.

"Thank you, Russell."

"You actually said thank you to me? The relationship has faded. I'll buy a plane ticket to Austin!"
