NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Chapter 1642 The draft meeting, the king was caught by surprise

The general manager of the Kings wanted to pick Danny Rose in the second round, but Wang Yi shook his head and said:
"Please pick him in the first round."

The general manager hesitated.

Using a first-round pick to choose a guy who I have never heard of will definitely be ridiculed by other teams, those media reporters, and thousands of fans.

Saying that the manager is either crazy or stupid.

But in the end, considering that Wang Yi would not joke about such things, he still gritted his teeth.

"Okay, I will choose him!"

Wang Yi nodded: "Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Ross next to him nodded to Wang Yi: "Thank you."

Wang Yi looked at the traffic ahead:
"You have to make it clear to him that our help is secondary, and the most important thing is to rely on his own efforts. If he is not tall enough, he has to work hard to make up for it."

……

At this time, after the general manager Divac hung up the phone, he was very excited when he recalled what Wang Yi said just now.

When the coaching staff went to ask Wang Yi for his opinions on the draft, Wang Yi was noncommittal.

This made the entire Kings feel uneasy.

Because Wang Yi is indifferent to the draft, does that mean that Wang Yi is unwilling to stay with the Kings next season?

Just because he doesn't want to stay on the team, it doesn't matter who the Kings choose, so he doesn't bother to care about it?

The more I think about it, the more I feel like this.

This made the Kings uneasy from the boss to the coaches for several days.

Now that Wang Yi has put forward guidance for the draft, it means that Wang Yi will definitely stay with the Kings next season.

Otherwise, with Wang Yi's personality, if he doesn't stay with the Kings next season, he won't dictate the Kings draft.

Thinking of this, Divac waved his fist excitedly: "YES!"

Then he quickly dialed the phone number of the boss:
"Boss, is it convenient for you to talk?"

The boss's phone is very private, and the receiver's voice is not very loud.

Now it would be impolite to leave the customer behind to answer the phone.

So he said directly: "If you have something to say directly."

"Wang will stay with the King next season."

The excited voice of general manager Divac came from the receiver.

The boss, Ranadive, was overjoyed when he heard this.

He quickly pointed to his mobile phone to the customer, motioned for him to answer the call, and then threw the customer in the office directly, and went to the lounge next to him.

It doesn't matter how polite it is.

After closing the door of the lounge, he asked in the first sentence: "Did he tell you personally?"

Divac replied: "Although he didn't tell me himself, but I can hear it from his words..."

Then he told his boss, Ranadive, about Wang Yi's appointment of the rookie.

Ranadive was also very excited when he heard the words, and then instructed: "It doesn't matter whether we have heard of the rookie or not, and how talented he is. As long as Wang Yi is willing to stay, even if we choose two passers-by this year."

"However, before the decision is made at this time, we must not take it lightly. After the draft is over, we will discuss the contract with Wang Yi immediately! We must be quick!"

"I understand boss!"

After Lalla Dave hung up the phone, she felt refreshed and walked out of the lounge to the office.

The footsteps seem to be much lighter.

The client smiled and said, "Ranadive, it seems that you look good."

Ranadive nodded: "Sorry, I lost my composure just now. We will have dinner together later, and I will use this as an apology."

……

6 month 27 day.

The 2030 draft will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York.

This year is a small year in the draft, and there are no particularly talented rookies.

So this year's draft is not as lively as before.

Basically most of the prospective rookies were there.

But Danny Rose wasn't there.

Because I knew that I couldn't be selected at all, so there was no need to spend such a long trip to the scene.

At this time, he was still serving plates at the Hooters restaurant.

While serving the plate, he glanced at the talent show played on the restaurant screen from time to time.

There are also some frequent customers near today's draft meeting who come here to watch.

The top picks, second places and No. [-] picks are basically the same as everyone predicted.

It was those three people.

According to media predictions, these three will be able to reach the level of ordinary stars in the future.

As for the remaining people, they are unanimously optimistic.

So the next draft is basically nothing to watch.

The draft continued, and gradually came to the 27th pick in the first round, which is the draft right held by the Kings.

Since Rose is now in the Kings, the Hooters fans stopped joking and paid special attention to the Kings draft.

"Look who the Kings can draft today."

"No matter who they choose, their draft is not high, and the ones selected are not talented."

Someone saw little Danny coming over with a plate at this time, and joked:

"In my opinion, the talent of these remaining people is not as good as Danny Russell. Hey, little Danny, why don't you sign up for the selection conference. With your speed, you will definitely crush these scumbags in the draft conference."

"Hahahaha!"

The fans in the restaurant are right to be joking.

They didn't know that Danny Jr. had actually entered the draft.

It's just that ordinary fans only know about the most talented guys. For names other than those guys, they don't even bother to look at them, so they don't even know that Danny has already participated.

Little Danny didn't think he could be selected, so he just laughed at himself:

"If I can be selected, this draft will be too rubbish."

Everyone laughed again.

At this time, the Kings announced the player they selected with the 27th pick in the handwheel.

The host was a little puzzled when he read it: "The king's 27th pick in the first round is... a guard from Chicago—Danny Russell."

As soon as this remark came out, the scene of the draft meeting suddenly fell silent.

Everyone has some doubts.

After a while, they asked each other, who is this Danny Russell?

"Ah, is there such a person who signed up for the draft this year?"

"According to media predictions, this year's draft list does not include this person at all."

In the end, a reporter went through everyone's draft list, and found the last one: "Oh, yes, there is a Danny Russell, but he is only 1 meters tall, so he is not favored at all."

"I didn't play in the high school league before. I haven't played in the college league. Even in amateur games, he rarely participated, so there is very little information about him, and no scouts have even paid attention to him."

This made everyone puzzled.
