Chapter 19: Continued Fermentation

July 21.

The attendance of the basketball arena today was significantly higher than the last game between the Mavericks and the Spurs, and there were also several more media reporters and scouts from other NBA teams at the scene.

The Rocky Mountain Summer League itself is a relatively small league in the summer league, and the real NBA team only needs to invite six, plus one team from the Development League and the Iranian national team, so there are only eight teams in total, so the game schedule is relatively generous, and one game is scheduled every day.

Today's Mavericks are playing against the Utah Jazz, before the game starts, players from both sides are warming up on the court, the Mavericks are doing shooting practice on this side, and Wang Dachun is responsible for picking up the basketballs thrown by his teammates and passing them back.

It's not that Wang Dachun was ostracized by his teammates so he did the work of a caddy, but Coach Solano specially arranged it for him.

The effect of shooting is not something that can be practiced in a while, the coach believes that Wang Dachun urgently needs to practice the ball now, because his passing strength is too great, after the game with the Spurs, the feedback from his teammates to the coach is that he hopes that he will pass the ball slightly less in strength, and he must adjust it, otherwise his ball will pass to his teammates' hands, and the whole hand can be numb.

When doing passing practice, Wang Dachun felt that many people were watching him at the scene, which made him uncomfortable, after all, it was quite awkward to be stared at by hundreds of people.

Green seemed to know something, walked up to Wang Dachun with the basketball and passed the basketball to him and said:

"Put the basketball in the hoop!"

Wang Dachun didn't know what Green meant, but he came to the basket and stood on tiptoe and dunked the basketball into the basket with one hand, which was also the action he used the most during this time.

But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he finished the deduction, there was a burst of cheers at the scene, and Green smiled next to Wang Dachun and said:

"See? Man, you're a celebrity now! ”

Wang Dachun was a little dumbfounded, did he become a celebrity by putting a basketball in the basket? Aren't many people able to do it?

Wang Dachun didn't realize it because the TV station reported on his stunning performance in the game against the Spurs.

There are a lot of local fans who came to the game today, and they all came to see what this Wang Dachun, who can grasp with both hands in mid-air, is like.

At the same time, many media reporters also became interested in Wang Dachun, although the player is not very famous at the moment, they still came to the scene to see if there would be some interesting news.

On top of that, some NBA teams have also sent their scouts to see if the newcomer they missed is as the news says or just a false appearance, to refute the media that they are fools with shit in their brains.

The competition has officially begun.

The starting lineup fielded by the Utah Jazz is:

Point guard, Ronnie. Price, 188 cm tall.

Shooting guard, Morris. Almond, 198 cm tall.

Small forward, Ronnie. Brewer, 201 cm tall.

Power forward, Paul. Millsap, 203 cm tall.

Center, Costa. Kufos, 213 cm tall.

Utah Jazz center Costa. Koufors, like Wang Dachun, was drafted by the Jazz with the 23rd pick in the first round.

And the Dallas Mavericks' lineup is the same as the Spurs' lineup:

Point guard, Jose. Barria, 183 cm tall.

Shooting guard, Dwayne. Mitchell, 196 cm tall.

Small forward, Steven Gerrard. Green, 201 cm tall.

Power forward, Brydon. Bass, 203 cm tall

Center, Ryan. Hollins, 213 cm tall.

Today's lineups between the two sides are not much different, it can be said that they are evenly matched, Wang Dachun is still not able to become a starter today, Coach Solano still attaches more importance to this game, hoping to win this game.

Besides, with Wang Dachun's current ability, that is, he has a good frame, and it really doesn't help much offensively, so until the end of the first quarter, Wang Dachun was not sent to play at the beginning of the second quarter.

Now the audience stopped doing it, and said in my heart: We made a special trip to see the guy who can "stand and buckle", but what do you mean by breaking the coach and not letting people get into the house?

So the audience shouted "King of Dachun, King of Dachun", it doesn't matter if the two audience shouts, they can't stand the hundreds of spectators at the scene.

At present, the score on the field is scorching, and Solano has no intention of substitution, but seeing the continuous shouting of the audience, the reporter's camera also turned to him at this time, Solano did not want to be angry, so he could only send Wang Dachun on the field.

Wang Dachun was quite happy to see the enthusiasm of the audience, but when he heard hundreds of viewers at the scene shouting him "King of Great Spring", the whole person's mood was not beautiful.

At the end of the second quarter with 15 seconds left, Wang Dachun left the court with five fouls amid the cheers of the audience.

The audience was happy in cheers, Solano was really uncomfortable and wanted to scold his mother, he didn't deny that Wang Dachun's frame protection and defense were very good, but he couldn't stop him from sending fouls to the other party.

Fouled 5 times, and forced the slightly leading score to be 9 points behind, and the score behind was scored by the opponent's free throws.

The audience cheered and didn't care if you fell behind, although I didn't see any of Wang Dachun's attacks, but I saw a few times Wang Dachun's natural suppressive defensive effect.

One of the defenses, Paul. Millsap attacked Bass with his back, and Millsap's low-post offensive means were very rich, and although the two were of the same height, Bath was no match for Millsap in terms of technique and strength.

Millsap squeezed into the three-second zone with his back, feints to fly Buss, and when he hooked up for the layup, he didn't know when Wang Dachun suddenly ran behind Bass, jumped up and easily grabbed the ball with one hand, and quickly passed the ball out.

And Costa, the center of the same class opposite Wang Dachun, is also extremely aggrieved, there is not much difference in height between himself and Wang Dachun, how can he grab a rebound and this guy is half an arm's length? Are my hands so short? Obviously, the tonnage is not as big as itself, why can't you squeeze it?

If it weren't for the fact that the opponent committed most of the fouls on himself and scored 3 points on free throws, wouldn't he have said that he was 23rd in the first round and was blocked by a small second round 51 to 0? Costa had deep doubts about his abilities when Wang Dachun was gone!

And Wang Dachun did not go until the end after the game

The chance to play again, the Mavericks still lost the game! Wang Dachun's final stats in the game against the Jazz: 9 minutes off the bench, 0 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 blocks, 0 steals, 2 losses and 5 fouls.
