Link has been depressed today because the activities at the playground are much more boring than he thought.

Aside from meeting a fan who knew him at the door, Link found that 90 percent of the people in the park didn't even know who they were.

The reason why this group of people came to challenge themselves so enthusiastically was not because of their status as professional footballers, but because the rewards for success were very attractive - a 1.5-meter-tall doll and a one-month pass to the park.

But after all, after taking other people's money, Link could only grit his teeth and insist. So, he spent a boring afternoon like this. The only thing he did all afternoon was playing basketball with middle-aged men and children.

It felt so bad that Link felt like a clown. It's just that what he performs in front of people is not acrobatics and comedy, but shooting.

Two hours later, he finally managed to get the last challenge spot, and he was able to take the money and leave, but when the last challenger stepped forward, Link suddenly became interested in the event.

Not because he played away, but because of the girl who was walking towards him at this time, Link felt very familiar.

But he searched his brain, which had memories of two lifetimes, only to find that Link didn't know the girl either.

"Can you know your name, this young lady?"

Just as Link was stunned, the host asked.

"Rachel. Demita. ”

The girl eagerly took the basketball and said her name.

"Rachel. Demita...... "Link scratched his head, and suddenly it dawned on him!

The young girl in front of her is the female anchor of the NBA2KTV in the future, and she is also one of the favorite basketball goddesses of the younger generation of fans. Demita!

The moment he recognized Rachel, Link almost rushed up to her to ask for an autograph. But fortunately, then reason triumphed over impulse.

Rachel has never entered the basketball world now, she is not famous, just an ordinary college student. I'm afraid it's unreasonable for a professional player to ask a college student for an autograph.

"Are you really a professional footballer? I've never seen you on the Thunder lineup. Before the shot could start, Rachel, who was standing next to Link, asked bluntly.

"I don't play for the Thunder, I don't play in the NBA, to be exact, I play for the Oklahoma Blues in the Development League." Link nodded, a little nervous.

The "goddess" who has always been highly sought after is standing in front of her, and a boy will be a little nervous.

"I see, I thought you were an impostor. But don't take it lightly, you may not be able to win me. ”

Rachel smiled, and then the host said that the game was on.

In the first few balls, both of them shot very well. Although the height of the shooting machine is completely different from the basketball hoop used in the official game, both of them have a good sense of the ball, and adjusting the height of the basket is not difficult for them at all.

Link was very surprised by Rachel's performance. He only knew that Rachel was a basketball presenter, but he didn't know that Rachel was really so good at playing.

In fact, Rachel was also a women's basketball player in high school. A four-time Ohio top-65 player, a member of the 2005 AAU Junior All-American Championship, and a 2007 Medina County three-point champion......

If it weren't for injury, Rachel would be competing in the NCAA right now. But unfortunately, she has given up basketball for a long time.

This slight distraction actually caused Link to miss two consecutive shots for the first time.

And these two misses finally made Link lose 13-14.

The future NBA2K goddess Rachel. Demita became the first visitor to succeed in today's challenge!

"Oh my God, she did it! This young lady became the first person to succeed in the challenge today! Congratulations to her for winning our event reward. A giant doll, and a one-month pass to the amusement park! ”

The host raised Rachel's hand aloft while Link applauded helplessly.

But judging by the host's frowning expression, he must have thought that Link was deliberately releasing water. After all, if you set up a challenge but no one succeeds, it's a bit unreasonable.

This made Link even more helpless, he didn't have any intention of releasing water......

"Alright young lady, now take your prize and go take a picture with Link! Rest assured, group photos are free. ”

The two got together, and Link also saw Rachel's face up close for the first time.

Rachel didn't wear much makeup today, so she looked at a pure beauty, like an ordinary but always reluctant girl next door.

"You say you play in the Development League, is that true?"

Rachel suddenly turned her head to talk to Link, causing Link to take his eyes off the face.

"Hmm...... Oklahoma Blue, have you watched the Blues game? Brother Lin hurriedly changed the topic.

"To be honest, today was the first time I learned that Oklahoma also had a Development League team. But if you're a professional player, you still have a chance to make it to the NBA, right? ”

"Yes, the Development League is the closest road to the NBA."

"Well," Rachel nodded thoughtfully, "I wish you all the best in your basketball career, Link." ”

As someone who was forced to give up her beloved, she sincerely hopes that every basketball person can make their dreams come true.

After the group photo, the girl walked away with a huge stuffed animal with lively steps.

"What a good day, Link. You see, in just over an hour, $5,000 has been credited to your account! ”

Manager Carl. Jones walked past the director of the playground, with a wad of green bills in his hand.

After pulling out 4,000 and handing it to Link, he pocketed the remaining 1,000. Although the commission is 20%, Link can have enough money left for him.

"Yes, I have a lot of harvest today......" Link said with a smile on his face, and the harvest in his mouth was not all about money......

※※※

The Fort Wayne Mad Ants are one of the oldest teams in the Development League, having been affiliated with Indiana since their creation in 2007 and have never relocated.

It is not easy for a small team in the Development League to survive for so many years without belonging to any NBA team.

Although the Mad Ants have a "long" history, their honor is pitiful. After three years in the Development League, their best result was just playing the playoffs.

In this regard, the head coach of the Mad Ants, Steve Brown. Ganxi had a great headache. He needs players who are more capable, like some players who have been dropped from the NBA.

This year, the Mad Ants and the Pacers reached an initial partnership agreement. Although the Mad Ants are still not affiliated with the Pacers, once the Pacers have players who want to devolve, the first one will choose to "throw" at the Mad Ants.

This should have been a good thing for the Mad Ants, but Stephen. Gancy was not happy at all

Because the player who is about to come to his team is really difficult to discipline.

In just a few months with the Pacers, he's been in trouble repeatedly. Things such as being caught speeding while driving, being late for training, and hitting the instructor have happened to him from time to time.

Because of this, people say that he is a "problem child". Steve. Gancy thought so, he didn't think he could tie down a wild horse.

This time, the guy was sent down because he lost his temper in the locker room. A newcomer who dares to lose his temper in the NBA's locker room, Steve. Gancy didn't know if he would be able to withstand his "devastation".

"Knock knock!"

Just as Gansi was in a hurry, there was a knock on the door to his office.

"Please...... Come in. Gansy stammered back, knowing that it was his "great gift" that had arrived.

Sure enough, the door to Gancy's office was opened by a tall black man. He was dressed in simple white short-sleeved shirts and a turban, looking like one of those gangsters on the street.

"Coach Ganxi, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon! Don't worry, with me the day after tomorrow, we won't lose! Don't worry about the guy who got a triple-double in the last game, I'll get him! I didn't want to lose again when I was sent down this time. ”

This one is called "Problem Child" and is called Lance. Stephenson's players seem to be quite interested in Link......
