Data Basketball In The Black Basket

"This is the kid who scored a 40+12 double-double against Kainan?"

"Um!"

"A junior high school freshman?"

"Um!"

"It's true, you're not lying to me, are you?"

Tokyo Youth Sports News Headquarters, Editor-in-Chief's Office.

Aida Yayoi reported to the editor-in-chief with the photos she took and the reports she wrote.

Because it is a youth sports newspaper, the main content they report is mainly students, focusing on the next generation of athletes.

Teikō and Kainan are regulars in national competitions and are Japan's top basketball teams. Even in exchange games, they attract Aida Yayoi.

This future fan of Akira Sendoh was now impressed by Wayne.

Whether it was his superb football skills or his words full of philosophy of life, Aida Yayoi will remember Wayne deeply.

She is certain that Wayne will definitely become the biggest surprise in this year's national competition, streaking across the night sky like a shooting star and shining across the country.

"But he is not a star player. You want him to be on the front page?" The editor-in-chief shook his head.

Magazines also have to focus on sales.

Rather than covering unknown students like Wayne, he would rather report on nationally famous talented players like Nijimura Shuzo and Shinichi Maki.

For example, another report on the table, Teikō, under the leadership of Nijimura Shuzo, defeated Gunma Prefecture's last year's district qualifier champion by 30 points.

This kind of report is obviously more interesting than Aida Yayoi’s.

Who is Wayne?

The first reaction of domestic fans when they saw this name was probably not the player playing ball, but the Batman from Gotham City.

"He is really a strong editor. We will report on him now. When the national competition starts and he becomes famous, it will better demonstrate our professionalism." Aida Yayoi argued.

"But this kid is a flower grower, not our local player."

"He's a local, he's a mixed race, he's from a single-parent family, and he's a talented poor boy's basketball journey. Isn't this title attractive enough?"

Aida Yayoi was well prepared and even found out some of Wayne's family information.

He was raised by his mother in a single-parent family. He was rejected by his classmates since he was a child because he had no father. However, he always insisted on his basketball dream, trained hard every day and night, and finally led the team to defeat the wealthy Kainan University...

Isn't this interesting?

It has to be said that this guy understands traffic. With just some simple information, he can construct a story that is enough to make people imagine.

"Okay, you convinced me, we will give this child the front page this time."

The editor-in-chief was convinced that it didn’t matter who was on the front page, the key was sales.

Aida Yayoi's talk about the east, west and north almost moved him, let alone the readers?

.........

the other side.

Teikō.

Today's basketball department is as lively as ever, because today they have a total of two exchange games, one with their own school, and the other with the second team led by Wayne.

Teikō won both games, which made the members of the basketball club start to dream about this year's national championship.

"We seem to have a good chance of winning the championship this year."

"Yes, the first team defeated last year's No. 1 team in Gunma Prefecture, and the second team also defeated the giant Kainan University by 19 points. We are really strong this year."

"Wayne heard that he scored 40+ points in this game and had 12 assists. It's time for this guy to join the first team, right?"

"I guess it won't be long before Wayne leaves the second and third armies. The national competition will start soon, and he will need time to train with the first army."

“…..”

Compared with the First Army, the Second Army and the Third Army were obviously more lively, and everyone was talking about it.

Talking about the first army's roster and this year's national competition.

"Issun..." Takasugi heard as he passed by. He paused for a moment, then walked directly into Issun's arena and found Shirogane Kozo alone.

"You want to quit the First Army?"

"Ah, through the exchange game with Kainan, I finally understand why the coach arranged this game for me and Wayne."

"That guy Wayne is indeed more suitable to stay in the first army than me."

When Takasugi said this, his expression was very free and easy.

On the way back, he figured out which player was more suitable to represent Teikō in the national competition than himself, Wayne.

A guy who is very powerful and not annoying at all.

“My goal over the years since joining Teikō has been to break into the first team and represent the team across the country.”

"As a result, I was so obsessed with being a first-choice player that I even forgot why I played in the first place."

"So you remember now?"

"Well, thanks to that guy Wayne, I remembered that I started playing because it was fun to play. So, coach, let that guy Wayne join the first team!"

Shirogane Kozo wanted to know what kind of ecstasy soup Wayne poured into Takasugi to make Takasugi willingly give up his position in the army.

However, this is also in line with his wishes. Kainan's big match was originally to help Wayne rise to the top, so Takasugi voluntarily quit, which saved him some trouble.

"I understand, starting from tomorrow, Wayne will officially become a member of the Teikō First Army."

"But Takasugi, don't relax. Even if you can't represent Teikō in the national competition, you have to keep working hard. Your basketball road is still long."

Takasugi nodded seriously, turned around and walked out of the arena resolutely.

...........

the next day.

Satsuki Momoi took advantage of her lunch break to find Wayne.

Wayne and Atsushi Murasakibara were reading comics on the rooftop, silently discussing the plot.

"Mo, why did you come to the rooftop to eat? It took me so long to look for it."

"Satsuki?"

"Xiao Tao?"

Wayne and Atsushi Murasakibara looked up at the same time. Only then did I realize that Satsuki Momoi had already arrived.

"It's lunch break now, why are you coming here to find us if you don't follow Qing Zai?"

In Atsushi Murasakibara's memory, Satsuki Momoi was Aomine Daiki's follower, following him wherever he went.

Rather than being childhood sweethearts, they are more like a mother and son.

"Of course there is something important." Satsuki Momoi coughed, and then said to Wayne, "I'm here to convey the coach's original words. Congratulations to you Wayne, you will be officially promoted to the first team starting today."
