Chapter 138 Inheritance
Today's 28 rookies are not only this year's best rookies, but also last year's best rookies, such as Edwards, Haliburton, and Ball.
Even Henderson, the dark horse prince of the Ignition team, who was said to be the only player who could compete with Wimbledon and Yama for the number one draft pick, was just a supporting role, wasn't he?
MVP and championship, aren't they all yours?
Of course, Henderson, born in February 2004, is too young to adapt to this stage.
But Wang Xiucheng was only born at the end of 2002, which means he is only one year and a little over a month older than Henderson.
Edwards and Halliburton, aren't they both older than Wang Xiucheng?
Hearing Wang Xiucheng's confidence, both Xiao Qi and the Chinese fans watching the live broadcast felt relieved.
Rookie of the Year—that's an honor a player can only strive for in their first year.
Even Yao Ming has not received such an honor.
Although many people believe that Yao Ming should have been the Rookie of the Year in the 2002 season.
In terms of all the stats, Yao Ming was almost perfect except for rebounds, which were slightly lower. He even had a 50% three-point shooting percentage, although he only made one.
However, Yao Ming was not awarded the Rookie of the Year award, which left many Chinese fans feeling uneasy at the time.
I thought that another Chinese player would soon be vying for this honor, but I never expected that it would take 20 years.
Yao Ming joined the NBA in the 2002 season.
Wang Xiucheng was born that year.
It's hard to say that this isn't a form of inheritance!
After finishing his interview with Xiao Qi, Wang Xiucheng signed autographs for the fans waiting in the players' tunnel before entering the tunnel himself.
Although he could tell that Xiao Qi seemed to want to say something but hesitated, Wang Xiucheng still decided to leave.
Wang Xiucheng felt a little hungry.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiucheng was still blocked by a woman.
"Um, Wang Xiucheng, can I treat you to dinner?"
The woman, who was also somewhat petite to Wang Xiucheng, was looking up at him with longing and anticipation from the players' tunnel.
Wang Xiucheng was visibly stunned for a moment when he saw the woman.
Because this woman is Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner's younger sister.
In Chinese parlance, this is one's sister-in-law.
My sister-in-law invited me to dinner, so of course I couldn't refuse.
Wang Xiucheng smiled and said, "Of course, but I need to go back to the locker room first."
Upon hearing Wang Xiucheng's agreement, Kylie Jenner's face clearly lit up with excitement.
For her, this was already half the battle won.
"It's okay, I'll wait for you outside."
Smelling Wang Xiucheng's scent, Kylie Jenner's face turned red.
Kylie Jenner found it strange that Wang Xiucheng smelled so good, even though he was covered in sweat, that it made her feel a little lost in thought.
She had never encountered a situation like this before.
"See you later." Wang Xiucheng nodded and entered the players' tunnel.
Not far away, Lily Depp, who was holding a notebook in her arms, saw Kylie Jenner and Wang Xiucheng talking, so she waited shyly to the side.
As it turned out, Wang Xiucheng didn't even see her and went straight back.
This made Lily Depp a little sad.
Depp's elderly father, standing not far away, looked somewhat helpless.
Why did my daughter have to fall for an NBA player?
These NBA players are all incredibly inattentive.
If it weren't for his daughter wanting to come and watch Wang Xiucheng play, why would he have come to Cleveland to watch a bunch of rookies?
He shook his head, walked over, put his arm around his daughter's shoulder, and the two left the stadium.
In the parking lot outside the stadium, Kylie Jenner is on the phone with her sister, Kim Kardashian.
"Sis, Wang Xiucheng agreed to have dinner with me. Does that mean he's interested in me too?"
“If you’ve made up your mind, then take the initiative,” Kim Kardashian’s voice came through the phone. “After he wins the Slam Dunk Contest tomorrow, I’m afraid even more people will be eyeing him.”
The reason Kim Kardashian said that was because she saw Swift on TV and realized she was also there.
And from a fleeting glimpse of the scene, Kim Kardashian noticed a hint of possessiveness in Swift's eyes when she looked at Wang Xiucheng.
The Kardashian family is often referred to as a family of socialites, but Kim Kardashian believes that Swift is the most impressive socialite.
Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Jake Gyllenhaal, Harry Styles of One Direction, Taylor Lautner of Twilight, Connor Kennedy, heir to the Kennedy family...
These famous male gods were all Taylor Swift's ex-boyfriends!
Compared to Swift, the Kardashian family is really nothing special.
Swift and others are both high-quality and substantial; none of them are ordinary or unknown.
There's even a saying circulating in the industry that a male celebrity's fame can be judged by whether he's had any romantic rumors with Swift.
Although it was just a fleeting appearance on television, Kim Kardashian is certain that Swift has her eye on Wang Xiucheng again.
Even if Kim Kardashian doesn't trust her sister's taste, she would never doubt Swift's.
Therefore, she now strongly agrees with her younger sister's decision.
Before Kylie Jenner could say anything more, she noticed that the players who participated in the rookie game had already left the arena, and many of them were boarding buses to return to their hotels.
However, many rookies also got into other vehicles in groups, seemingly ready to have a good time in Cleveland that night.
For example, Green, Shen Jing, Cunningham, and Mobley, all 21-year rookies, boarded another unmarked extended luxury Lincoln.
About ten minutes later, when all the players had left the stadium and Kylie Jenner even suspected that Wang Xiucheng had left through another gate, Wang Xiucheng finally strolled out alone.
Kylie Jenner felt an instant sense of relief and practically ran to Wang Xiucheng as soon as she opened the door, grabbing his arm as if afraid he would run away.
The pair of weapons struck Wang Xiucheng's arm intentionally or unintentionally, making him somewhat distracted.
This is my sister-in-law; I guess Americans are all this enthusiastic.
As Wang Xiucheng thought to himself, he let Kylie Jenner half-drag and half-pull him into the car.
Then Kylie Jenner smiled triumphantly, got into her car, and drove away.
In a corner of the parking lot, James, Curry, and Draymond Green were in the car and saw Wang Xiucheng and Kylie Jenner the whole time.
"That's Wang Xiucheng and Kelly?" James seemed incredulous.
"Yes." Curry nodded.
"Shouldn't we say something to Wang Xiucheng?" James asked again.
The Kardashians know all too well what kind of family they are.
They can be just friends, and they also have a good relationship with the Kardashian family.
But when it comes to feelings, that's a different story.
"This kid, he hasn't even gotten very good at basketball yet, and he's already getting involved with them," Draymond Green said in a low voice, looking somewhat disappointed.
"Never mind, he's only 19, the age when he's just starting to experience romantic feelings. Maybe experiencing some things will help him grow." Curry shrugged, then immediately smiled and pointed in a direction.
"Drive quickly, we're heading to that nightclub. And it's a deal: anyone who dares to tell anyone will be a dog from now on!"
