The top 16 opponent of the University of Pennsylvania was Arizona State University.
The Arizona State University led by James Harden eliminated Brigham Young University in the first round and met with the University of Morris in the top 16.
James Harden was also predicted to be selected at the end of the first round, but it was reported that if he did not have the chance to enter the lottery, he would choose to stay in college for another year.
Harden was the key defense target of the University of Pennsylvania. This season, Harden contributed an average of 17.8 points per game and had the highest 73 steals in the division, helping Arizona State to achieve a 21 - 13 record.
In addition to Harden, a center named Jeff also needed to be paid attention to. In the last game, Jeff scored 18 points and 17 rebounded, dominating the paint with his dominant inside skills.
It looked like this game would continue to test the University of Miami, but surprisingly, there was not much suspense in this game.
James Harden was too inexperienced. His pengci and retreat techniques were not mature yet.
Against Ross, it was unrealistic to expect Harden to defend.
Robert, who hadn't performed well in the last game, had found his touch today and fired shots from the outside.
Facing Jeff, Joey Dorsey also showed the domineering power of a rookie with potential inside.
The University of Pennsylvania had the situation under control from the start of the game. Arizona State University was helpless against the University of Pennsylvania's potential NBA rookies.
When it was rotation time, Zhang Luo's appearance was the final blow to Arizona State University.
Zhang Luo's soft touch combined with the breakthrough of his super large steps made Harden's scalp tingle.
Harden hated such talented players. In his opinion, there was no technical content in playing like this.
Arizona State University was at a complete disadvantage!!
After the first half, the score was 33 to 53, with the University of Memphis behind.
In the second half of the game, Zhang Luo's combination of sudden shots helped the team continue to widen the gap.
After the match, the score was 55 to 95!
? The University of Pennsylvania displayed its strength.
Zhang Luo played 17 minutes in this game and scored 22 points, 11 rebounded, 3 assists, 3 blocked shots and 3 steals.
Zhang Luo's three blocks were all given to Harden. Harden's European step came up to challenge Zhang Luo, and he was almost accurate with each block.
After the game, Zhang Luo went to Harden and gave his suggestion."If you grew a beard, I think you'd look more murderous.”
Although Harden hated Zhang Luo, he felt that Zhang Luo's idea was not bad.
With a beard, he could become more domineering!
After eliminating Arizona State University, the University of Pennsylvania also made it into the top eight. The game would continue in three days.
Their opponent was Stanford University.
Stanford University had the brothers inside. They were a strong opponent.
....................
After scoring more than 20 points in two consecutive games, Zhang Luo entered the media's attention.
Slam: " Consecutive 20 New Stars Shine for Three Months!”
" Zhang Luo, a terrifying Asian monster!!”
Fox Sports: " A dark horse rookie with explosive physical talent!!”
" The Tigers have a fourth player who might be selected by the NBA.”
In addition to the foreign media's praise of Zhang Luo, the domestic media also bragged about it by watching Zhang Luo's game videos.
Most of the domestic fans watched the NBA. They were not keen on the NCAA. They only knew that almost all of the NBA's draft talents came from the NCAA.
In the past, no domestic players had made a name for themselves in the NCAA, but now they did.
As soon as Titan Sports, Slam Dunk, and other authoritative media outlets released their special reports on Zhang Luo, the fans began to pay attention to the University of Pennsylvania game.
Zhang Luo!
This name began to gradually be remembered by the domestic fans.
The fans began to discuss what position Zhang Luo would be selected.
In this era, domestic fans had high standards. They believed that many domestic players had the ability to play in the NBA.
Big Yao was an All-Star in the NBA, and Yi Lian would show off his muscles from time to time. He had probably retired in the NBA.
The fans felt that the NBA was not that far away.
.....
While the fans were curious about Zhang Luo, the media outlets of various domestic sports organizations also sent reporters to Miami to interview Zhang Luo.
Zhang Luo was very cooperative with the interview. He answered many questions that domestic and foreign fans were concerned about and introduced his growth experience and family background in detail.
For Zhang Luo, what he needed to do was to do a good job of publicity so that he could enter the attention of various NBA teams as soon as possible.
Indeed, under the publicity of various fishing boats, the talent show website also included Zhang Luo in the rankings.
In the predictions of the major talent show websites, Zhang Luo's ranking was between 15 and 30.
Although the ranking was not high, it was still very difficult. This was due to Zhang Luo's physical talent and the market behind him.
.................
Su Jun, a reporter from the Basketball Pioneer, was very happy recently. His online blog hit rate had tripled and was still increasing.
There was no doubt that this was an explosive blog post.
The reason for the increase in traffic was Zhang Luo.
In the first two elimination rounds, the University of Pennsylvania and Arizona State University were defeated by the University of Pennsylvania. Zhang Luo had explosive performances in both games.
Two consecutive 20 points was enough to make Zhang Luo famous.
This caused the number of searches for Zhang Luo's name in the country to increase sharply. At present, only his blog reported Zhang Luo's name in the most detail.
It wasn't the first time Su Jun wrote about Zhang Luo. When Zhang Luo had an average of 4 3, he had written about Zhang Luo's situation one after another.
Zhang Luo's growth could be seen on his blog.
Zhang Luo was now considered a hot rookie in the NCAA, which made Su Jun feel gratified.
...............
In the dormitory, Zhang Luo was also using his computer to browse the news about himself.
These few days, Zhang Luo could clearly feel that his popularity was increasing. Many girls took the initiative to give him small notes as he walked.
Zhang Luo accepted all the notes.
Although he didn't need a girl now, he might need to settle some personal needs one day…
..............
The tickets, thank you.
