For Chinese fans, Yi Jianlian's departure from the Lakers and his return to the CBA means that the NBA no longer has a formal Asian player.

Some may mention Jeremy Lin, but the Chinese-American who grew up abroad may not consider himself an Asian American.

So, when the term "Asian rookie" came up, the appeal to fans was to be expected.

As the link to the ESPN interview on YouTube was posted, Chinese fans with certain technical means clicked on the link and watched!

"I'll go, I said how I've never heard of it, it turned out to be a rookie of Nima Magic!"

Seeing the venue of the interview and the Magic team training uniform worn by Wu Rui, fans from China typed down such a string of words.

Truth be told, in China, the only ones that get a lot of attention are the teams that have superstars, or have big balls.

For example, Kobe Bryant's Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James's Cleveland Cavaliers, or Kawhi Leonard's San Antonio Spurs and the Golden State Warriors who have swept the league in the last two or three years.

The Orlando Magic, a slightly low-key team, has received very little attention domestically.

"Don't look down on the Magic, they have Aaron Gordon, okay!"

Another Chinese netizen who was late replied to the comment above.

"Alright, Lao Tie, except for Aaron Gordon, you can name five magic players, and I count you as the winner!"

As soon as this comment appeared, the barrage instantly quieted down a lot, obviously, they knew too little about magic.

On the other side of the interview, Wu Rui didn't know that he had been locked by domestic fans on the Internet, he just tried his best to answer the interview with the beautiful reporter opposite.

"So, Michael, one last question, Zach LaVine has extended you an invitation to the slam dunk contest, will you agree?" Sena asked a question and looked at Wu Rui: "This is an invitation to the champion of the slam dunk contest." ”

"Oh, I know that, and it's an honor to receive an invitation from Zach LaVine." Wu Rui said, tilting his neck: "But all this will have to wait until the alliance official sends me an invitation before I can decide whether to go or not." ”

"Of course, if the league does invite me to the slam dunk contest, then I think it's perfectly fine." Wu Rui said, moving his legs towards the camera: "They also feel completely OK!" ”

"Damn, what is this kid talking about, I only understood a slam dunk contest and Zach LaVine!"

"In reply to the previous one, he said that he was going to participate in the slam dunk contest this season."

"I'll go, if he really participates, then he will not be the first yellow man in history to participate in the NBA slam dunk contest!"

YouTube's ESPN interview channel has been completely overwhelmed by fans from China, who were seduced by Wu Rui's answer.

Think about it, a yellow man, on the highest stage of basketball in the world, on the stage of the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, wearing an NBA jersey, spreading his wings and gliding and splitting dunks!

This picture has never been seen in history, and it can be described as unprecedented!

It's just that now, there is only one question left in everyone's minds, which country is this kid Asian?

Because they watched it relatively late and missed the scene at the beginning of the live broadcast, Wu Rui was indignant and replied that he was Chinese, so most fans still maintained a wait-and-see attitude.

At this time, many Korean netizens also began to pay attention to this live broadcast and commented in Korean.

"Is this our rookie player from Korea?"

"It's possible, our Korean Oba is always so low-key!"

"Oh, that's great, I think, that's what the fans watching the live stream want to know the most." Back at the Orlando Magic's training arena, the beautiful host Sena smiled at Wu Rui and said, "Michael, there are still many fans on the Internet who don't know much about you. ”

"In addition, Zach LaVine sent you an invitation to dunk, and I would like to represent the fans, please show your dunk talent in front of the camera, can I ask you?"

"Uh... The question ......"

Hearing Sena's request, Wu Rui was a little embarrassed for the first time, and turned his eyes to the head coach Frank Vogel who was standing aside as if asking for help.

But Vogel nodded at him and motioned for Wu Rui to do what the other party asked.

This is the additional condition for ESPN to agree to the Magic's high-level request to convert the interview with Wu Rui into a national live broadcast, and they want fans across the United States to see if Wu Rui is worthy of being Zach LaVine's opponent!

A Chinese rookie shows off his dunk skills in front of the camera, obviously, the popularity of this video is definitely not low!

"So... No problem! ”

With the approval of the head coach, Wu Rui didn't waste time, stood up directly, moved his body, and then asked for a basketball towards Biyombo, who had been watching the excitement on the sidelines.

"Michael, do you need help?"

Biyombo asked as he tossed the ball over and made a passing motion.

"Of course not, I'm just deducting one casually."

Wu Rui replied, but his mind was uncertain about what to do next, and between hesitations, his eyes were aimed at the shoes that Biyombo was wearing.

“Air Jordon！”

Seeing the classic posture of Michael Jordan, the god of basketball, Wu Rui instantly had an idea in his heart!

Thinking about it, Wu Rui hugged the ball and ran to the other side of the court.

Take a deep breath!

Seriously, he's never run this far to try a dunk, not once!

And Sena and the others on the other side were also at a loss, Wu Rui almost ran out of the field, and they didn't know what would happen next.

"Whew!"

With a sigh of relief, Wu Rui directly held the ball, ran in stride, and sprinted towards the front court almost at full speed!

Sena just wanted to open her mouth to remind Wu Rui that she hadn't taken off her training clothes, but the next moment, she opened her mouth wide.

I saw Wu Rui step forward on the free throw line, exert his legs, take off into the air, and the whole person moved forward in the air like gliding, and then, he raised his hands and poured the ball into the net!

"I'm Michael, too!"

As soon as he landed, Wu Rui, who realized a dunk one step before the free throw line, was really excited, and subconsciously shouted out in Chinese what he expected to say in advance.

"What a! Amazing two-handed dunk at the free-throw line! This kid is so perverted! ”

"That's not the point,, I heard you right! He just yelled in Chinese! ”

"Wozhi, he is Chinese! What about those 'Korean friends' just now? Does your face hurt? It doesn't hurt! ”

Wu Rui's subconscious roar made the barrage in YouTube's live broadcast room instantly swipe!

And Senna, who was shocked, swallowed her saliva, walked to Wu Rui's side with a smile, and handed the microphone over: "Michael, can you repeat what you just said in English?" ”

"Absolutely." After calming down, Wu Rui took a breath: "I'm also Michael!" ”
