.....
At eight o’clock the next morning.
Zeng Xingyang, having woken up early, went to knock on Booker’s dorm room door.
Booker opened the door, and Zeng Xingyang walked in and said, "Let’s go train; we can wash up when we get back."
Booker, still sleepy, complained, "Zeng, are you crazy? We only got back at 1 a.m. last night."
Zeng Xingyang replied, "Kobe Bryant used to get up to train at 4 a.m., and now it’s 8 a.m. Seven hours is plenty of ti for recovery."
Hearing the power of Kobe’s example, Booker stopped grumbling.
In a previous interview, Kobe specifically praised the University of Kentucky’s Booker, saying Booker had potential to beco an excellent shooting guard, which made Booker very happy.
Booker also wants to grow into another Kobe; that’s his goal.
The two then went to find Towns, who followed them to the training gym, grumbling all the way, to start the early training.
Towns and Booker have such personalities; if Zeng Xingyang didn’t go to get them and went to train alone, they might not be as disciplined and could co late. But if Zeng Xingyang went to find them, they would also follow.
Zeng Xingyang worked hard, and they weren’t exactly lazy.
Koulistan and Lyles weren’t like this; they would sleep until naturally waking up, then arrive just in ti for training. Their passion for basketball wasn’t as high as the three.
Last night’s ga also served as a wake-up call for the trio—they couldn’t let the finals end in such a passive way.
Losing the finals would truly be a major regret in life.
Towns and Booker could feel how much Zeng Xingyang valued the finals.
How could he not care?
The University of Kentucky’s opponent in the finals is Duke University.
That was, in the previous life, this year’s NCAA championship team!
Duke University’s talent isn’t much different from that of the University of Kentucky.
Grayson Allen, a top-tier shooter alongside Durant and Booker at the Phoenix Suns, for a ti ranked high in NBA three-point shooting rate.
Quinn Cook, who won a championship with the Warriors, spent a long period roaming the NBA. He was praised as a lower-tier Curry due to his precise shooting.
Tyus Jones, a traditional point guard with maturity beyond his years, makes very few mistakes on the court. His jump shot in pick-and-roll situations is lethal; his downside is lacking elite speed and explosiveness typical of top point guards, he was the main point guard for the Suns before Zeng Xingyang’s crossover.
Jahlil Okafor, a top pick contender, NCAA’s elite big man, with solid fundantal skills on both offense and defense. This season, Okafor averaged 30.1 minutes per ga with 17.3 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.4 blocks—stats more impressive than Towns.
Justice Winslow, a future mainstay for the Heat’s rotation, is a small forward with superior athletic ability. His excellent speed and explosiveness make him an eye-catching player on the court, playing strong on both offense and defense. In the NCAA tournant, Winslow averaged 14.3 points and 9.3 rebounds.
Shemy Ojeleye, a power forward type of 3-and-D player, occupied a rotation spot with the Celtics for so ti in the future.
Duke University has a lineup that can be described as luxurious; most of the selected players can beco rotation players in NBA teams.
Zeng Xingyang is familiar with these players’ nas, having watched many of their gas.
Although these players aren’t as high profile as Towns and Booker, their presence sufficiently indicates their team’s comprehensive strength surpasses any team the University of Kentucky has faced before.
If the University of Wisconsin couldn’t compare to Kentucky’s players, then Duke University could certainly set up a major showdown with Kentucky.
Towns VS Okafor.
Booker VS Grayson Allen/Jones.
Koulistan VS Ojeleye.
Lyles/Zeng Xingyang VS Winslow/Cook.
Both teams’ starters are at NBA level.
The NCAA’s two most luxurious teams are no less than this.
This final is destined to attract more attention than ever.
Zeng Xingyang is also eager to defeat such an opponent, in which case his draft stock may rise further.
Lottery is already high, but who doesn’t want to keep progressing?
Go for it...
After finishing training, Zeng Xingyang went to the campus dining hall for a al with Booker and Towns, checking his phone along the way.
Phones are also smartphones now, though lagging behind the advanced ones when he traveled back from the future, but sufficient for browsing social platforms.
Zeng Xingyang not only registered on Weibo but also Twitter.
The population base back ho is vast, but Zeng Xingyang isn’t very famous yet; however, his Twitter follower count is growing fast, mainly due to his exceptional performance during the knockouts.
But as more fans pay attention, the variety of private ssages increases as well.
After last night’s explosive 38 points, ssages ca from AV actresses, lonely housewives who like Kentucky, cheerleaders from neighboring universities, and Wildcats fans with 36D figures.
These people sent him private ssages with explosive image content, implying various things.
Zeng Xingyang directly ignored these ssages.
