In downtown New Orlean, at the Sizzle King Stadium.
At the Pelican home stadium.
Wang Qi contacted the manager, Gentry.
"Chinese?" Gentry asked when he saw that Wang Qi was surprised that he was Chinese.
"Yes, my name is Wang Qi. I'm from the capital of China and I want to join your team for trial training.”Wang Qi said respectfully.
"Yes, your height and body shape are not bad. I have a good personal relationship with Iverson, and I believe in his judgment. If your physical test data is acceptable, the management of the second round of draw number 39 should be able to choose you.”
"Number 39? Iverson said that?" Wang Qi asked in confusion.
"We only have the number 39 to sign for the second round. Iverson said he recommended a friend for a trial. If it's not the number 39, how can it be our first pick? Let's go, I'll take you to the physical examination first." Gentry said jokingly.
Wang Qi didn't say anything, because he knew that it would be a different story once his physical test data came out. However, Coach Gentry left a good impression on him. He didn't look down on others because of racial and physical differences, and he didn't have a snobbish attitude.
......
“Ohmygod！！！”
“Whatthef**k！！”
Are you really Asian?"
Coach Gentry's exclamations came from the physical examination room.
Wang Qi was already used to the reactions of his coaches and examiners after his physical test.
"Wait a minute, I have to call Iverson!”The coach called Iverson excitedly.
"Alan, who the hell is the person you recommended to me?”
"What's wrong? He's very strong!”Iverson thought that Coach Gentry called to complain because Wang Qi didn't play well.
"It's not just strong! This was simply abnormal! Was he really just an ordinary university student?”Coach Gentry exclaimed.
"What happened?" Iverson knew Gentry well. He had always been calm and knew how to control his emotions, but now he was so agitated.
" I just finished Wang's physical test.
[Weight: 100kg]
Arm span: 229 cm Body fat content: 4.5%
[Standing jump: 100.5 cm] Maximum jump: 125.8 cm
Round trip in the penalty area: 10.68 seconds, 3/4 sprint, 3.45 seconds
Bench press: 173kg."
Iverson fell silent on the other end of the phone…
After a long time, Iverson finally spoke,""I can still accept this data. I feel much more balanced.”
"What do you mean?"
"Yesterday, we just had a one-on-one match. I... I got a zero." Iverson didn't hide anything and said directly.
"Pfft, hahahaha, you have such a day…The answer that was sealed by zero, spread out hahaha!”
"Shut up. Instead of laughing at me here, why don't you think about your own problem? You have to know that I also know the management of the Grizzlies.”Iverson hung up the phone.
This was indeed a difficult problem. It was already known that the Pelican team was going to sign Zion with the first pick. At this time, there was another player whose physical data was even more abnormal than Zion. For a moment, Gentry had a hard time deciding.
"Wang, wait a moment. I have to go to the management. This is related to your future with Pelican!”
"Alright."
Then Gentry hurried out.
Wang Qi took the data sheet from the desk in the physical examination room and looked at it.
[Name: Zion Williams]
[Weight: 129kg]
Arm span: 208.6 cm Body fat content: 6.9%
[Original jump: 91.44 cm] Maximum jump: 116.84 cm
Round trip in the penalty area: 11.42 seconds, 3/4 sprint, 4.36 seconds
Bench press: 170kg
Other than weight, there was nothing better than him.
Wang Qi couldn't help but sigh." The system has really given me too much power. I must create my own world in the NBA!"”
On the other side, the team's owner, Tom Benson, summoned the management and coaches for a meeting after receiving Gentry's notice.
Gentry handed over Wang Qi and Zion's physical assessment forms for everyone to browse.
"This... This was too unbelievable. A Chinese person's physical fitness was actually so abnormal!”said assistant coach Randy Ayas.
"Indeed, the physical test data can be said to be completely superior to Zion's in all aspects!”Another assistant, Brian Gass, said.
"I think we should re-examine the contract with Zion. Wang's physical talent is much stronger than Zion's, and he's also from China. Back then, Big Yao made Rockets famous. Even if Wang is slightly inferior to Zion, we can still choose him directly!”General Manager Dale Demps pointed out Wang Qi's commercial value.
At this moment, the silent boss, Tom Benson, opened his mouth.""Immediately gather the team members and have a team training match to observe Wang's competitive level before discussing!”
After a while, Coach Gentry brought the management to the stadium and the team members.
Coach Gentry was the first to speak." Wang, this is the Pelican team's owner, Tom Benson, and general manager, Dale Demps. There are also assistant coaches, Randy Ayas, Brian Gass, and Dave Hannes. This is the Chinese genius that I just mentioned, Wang!”
The Pelican management and Wang Qi nodded in acknowledgment, not putting on airs at all. Compared to the management of the Raptors, Wang Qi was very comfortable and more determined to stay in the Pelican team.
After Gentry finished his introduction, he said,""Today, our team has a Chinese prodigy, Qi Wang, for a trial. The data from the physical test can be said to be quite abnormal. Next, we have decided to carry out an in-team competition to see his true strength and also to test everyone's training results. The competition will begin immediately.”
"The first team will be Zhu Holly, Ian Clarke, Tony Allen, Solomon Hill, and Omo Asick. The second team will be Jameel Nelson, Frank Jackson, Dante Cunningham, Alexis Akinsa, and Wang. The players from both teams went to prepare for training. The match would begin in fifteen minutes!”
