Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

After a short break, the match continued.

This time Anderson was replaced by Portis on the sidelines. Portis is 199cm tall and plays the small forward position, but his tacit understanding with Zhuang Yu and others is not as good as Anderson.

Especially with Zhuang Yu, only Anderson and Zhuang Yu have the best tacit understanding in the entire team, and the two can always play exquisite coordination.

After Portis came up, the point difference was quickly widened.

However, Zhuang Yu can still maintain a stable output. Whether Westbrook is defending him, Collison is defending him, or he is replaced by the taller Mbah a Moute, he can always score the ball.

When Westbrook and Collison come to defend, he will use his height to either run without the ball and then catch the ball and shoot, or to "quick jump shot" in front of the two.

Switching to Mbah a Moute's defense, Zhuang Yu used his speed and skills to find ways to get better space as much as possible, and then used his rich scoring methods to score the ball...

Zhuang Yu's performance was so good that it surprised several NBA players. They replaced different people to defend Zhuang Yu and increased the defensive intensity. But Zhuang Yu can always adapt quickly and find a way to deal with it.

However, after a training match, Zhuang Yu still lost by a full 20 points. One person's outstanding performance cannot compete with several NBA players.

After it was over, everyone came to the sidelines.

Anderson asked Zhuang Yu curiously: "I haven't seen you for a while, why have you become stronger again? How did you do it?"

Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "Maybe I'm just better at utilizing space than before."

Immediately, he took out Coach Yannakis' "space theory" without hesitation and shared it with everyone.

After listening, everyone was thoughtful, including Westbrook, NBA players such as Love and Collison.

As for how much each has learned and how much they can gain, it's hard to say.

The day's training is over.

In the evening, Westbrook hosted a group of people for a big meal. During the dinner, Love talked about his recommendation of Zhuang Yu to the Timberwolves management and told Zhuang Yu that the Timberwolves' scouting director hoped to work with him. Meet him.

Zhuang Yu will naturally not refuse. Carrefour has good intentions, and I am afraid that another person would be welcome. After all, this is tantamount to being connected with an NBA team and one step closer to the NBA.

......

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past half month, Zhuang Yu has been with Westbrook, Love and others almost every day. They train together, eat together, and live together.

I met with the Timberwolves' scouting director once and had a brief chat.

Of course, it was limited to a meeting. After all, Zhuang Yu is still a student at UCLA and has not yet decided whether to participate in the NBA draft.

After half a month, Zhuang Yu's relationship with Westbrook, Love and others has become better and better.

He learned a lot from these NBA players, which can be said to have benefited a lot and further improved his strength.

Westbrook and others are gone, and Zhuang Yu and the others will also usher in their sophomore year and the new NCAA season...

......

In September, UCLA is bustling again.

Students shuttled through the campus, laughter echoed, the school welcomed freshmen, and the UCLA Bruins also welcomed new players.

In June of this year, five players left UCLA, leaving five vacancies, so UCLA also needs to add five players.

......

Four p.m.

At the training arena, Zhuang Yu and others have already arrived.

Ten minutes later, Coach Holland came in with several young people.

They followed Coach Holland, their expressions either curious or nervous. They were obviously this year's new players.

"gather."

Coach Holland summoned the players, then pointed to a few young people and said: "This is your new teammate. Come on, introduce yourself."

Zhuang Yu went through this process last year.

Several players introduced themselves and got to know the old players briefly.

There are five players in total, two big men over two meters tall. One is Royce Taylor, who is 205cm tall and serves as a power forward. The other one is called Wilson Robin. He is 206cm tall, but he plays center. He is very strong and looks like a bull.

The other three were less than two meters tall, and one of them was only about 1.8 meters tall. He was a black guy with dark skin and bright eyes. He was turning around and looking at Zhuang Yu and other old players curiously.

His name is Larry Brown II.

It's hard not to think of the NBA head coach when listening to the name, but obviously there is no relationship between them, they just happen to be named Larry Brown.

There are two other people, one is named Barry Conard, who is 193cm tall and plays the role of defender. He looks gentle.

The other person is Zach LaVine, a very handsome white guy, 196cm tall. He has a shaved head and looks very energetic.

When it was Zach LaVine's turn to introduce himself, Anderson came close to Zhuang Yu's ear and whispered: "This guy is said to be the best high school player in Washington State. He has amazing jumps and was a famous dunk king in high school."

Oh, the dunk king?

Zhuang Yu became interested.

After some introductions, Coach Holland waved his hand, indicating that everyone should disperse and train freely first, and then start group confrontation later.

Several new players were still a little cautious. They gathered together while warming up, glancing towards Zhuang Yu from time to time, and talking quietly.

"That's Zhuang." Taylor said: "Last season, he was the Pac-12 Rookie of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Sixth Man of the Year, and was selected to the All-NBA First Team."

"I know, I watched his game last season, he was very good." Robin nodded, looking at Zhuang Yu with admiration in his eyes.

At this time, Larry Brown II suddenly said: "You think, if I challenge him one-on-one, what are my chances of winning?"

what?

Several new players were stunned for a moment, and then they all looked at him as if he were a fool. How dare you challenge others? Are you mentally ill?

Larry Brown II shrugged: "Well, I was just kidding."

At this time, LaVine suddenly spoke and said, "If it's just a dunk competition, I'm confident I can beat him."

Several people turned to look at Raven.

Larry Brown II raised his eyebrows, suddenly became more energetic, and asked: "How about you challenge Zhuang later, not to compete with anything else, but to dunk?"

Raven was obviously a little moved.

However, the teammate next to him immediately scolded: "Little Brown, please stop making trouble. LaVine, I advise you to forget it. Zhuang is the boss of the team."

Raven smiled: "I know, I was just thinking about it."
