Just as Ye Ran was exchanging his skills, the taxi arrived at his destination, Team Thunderclap's training center.
The Summer League was a league that gathered first-year and second-year rookies, draft picks, and some fringe players who were looking for official contracts.
Although the intensity of the game was not as high as the NBA, the intensity of the game was not low at all.
Many rookies and fringe players would try their best to prove their worth here and get a chance in the NBA.
The management of each team would also pay attention to the players here, hoping to find something from them to strengthen the lineup.
After reporting to the team, Ye Ran got to know two of his teammates from Xia Lian.
Reggie Jackson and Jeremy Lamb.
Reggie was last year's No. 24 rookie. He had a strong physique and a tough playing style. He was an outstanding dual-ability guard.
Unfortunately, the Thunderclap had a lot of talent on their defensive line last year. He had not gotten many opportunities, so he planned to play in the summer league to maintain his form.
There was no doubt that he was the core of the team at the moment.
The other was this year's 12th show.
Jeremy Lamb!
This guy was not famous in the NBA in the future, but he had a nickname called God 2K.
Due to his outstanding static talent and wingspan, Lamb was able to develop into an MVP superstar in every generation of 2K games.
The other teammates were just some fringe players, so there was no need to pay too much attention to them.
After greeting his teammates, Ye Ran went to the hotel he had booked to rest.
After a brief exchange with the coach, Ye Ran knew that his trip to Xia Lian would not be too smooth.
Currently, the Summer League had already reached the knockout stage.
Thunderclap had reached the final eight.
In other words, there were only three games left, and the worst case scenario was losing the next game, which meant there was only one game left.
This was not good news for Ye Ran, who wanted to attract the attention of the team.
What was worse was that the team already had a fixed rotation, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to get much playing time.
He might even only be able to show it during trash time.
Ye Ran felt a little helpless after learning the news.
However, no matter what, as long as he was given time, even if it was only for a minute, he was confident.
After all, with absolute strength here, even if the treasure was covered in dust, it would definitely not be buried!
It was early August, 7 PM in the evening in the US.
The quarterfinals of the Summer League were about to begin.
Tonight, the Thunder's opponents were led by Andre Drummond and Middletown.
The detroit-based pistons!
Drummond was the rebounding champion of this year's summer league.
He was able to score 17 points and 15 rebound per game, which made the fans of the pistons exclaim that they had found a treasure!
Although Middleman was only a second-round player, as the future champion of the Bucks, he would become an All-Star player. Now, he was also making a name for himself in Summer United.
Since it was already the elimination round of the top 8, the attention on tonight's match was not low.
T,NT radio stations would be broadcasting the broadcast exclusively. They had also sent a luxurious commentator lineup, including Kenny Smith and Reggie Miller.
"Welcome to the top 8 of the 2012 Summer League. The next match is the Thunder VS the Diamonds!”
"Tonight's game is undoubtedly the team that everyone is most concerned about.”
Kenney Smith began to explain enthusiastically, warming up for the upcoming game.
"Andre Drummond. I personally think he's second only to Anthony Davis in this year's draft.”
"He's only the ninth pick. He's clearly greatly underestimated!”
"If the pistons can win today's game, they will play against the New Orlean Hornets, who have the first draft pick!”
"Of course, the Thunderclap is not an opponent that can be underestimated. Reggie Jackson is a second-year player, and he will not allow a first-year student to step on his head.”
As the commentators introduced the players one by one, the camera also focused on the players of the two teams who were warming up.
Most of them were familiar faces who had appeared in the previous matches.
However, when the camera slid to a yellow-skinned player, it paused on purpose.
After all, among a group of Caucasians and Blackie, yellow skin was more conspicuous.
"The guy wearing the number 95 jersey has quite strong muscles!”
The camera zoomed in, and the figure wearing the number 95 jersey, who was slamming hard, attracted the attention of the audience.
"It seems to be an Asian. This is really rare!”Reggie Miller and Kenny Smith explained as they flipped through the information in their hands.
" Ye…Ran!?"
"2.12 meters tall, 145 kilograms in weight, and 2.30 meters in wingspan!!!”
"This guy's weight and wingspan are really exaggerated. You can't tell from his appearance at all.”
Asians!
Inside!
His body's static talent was exaggerated!
The commentators read the information and exchanged glances.
It was not strange for a black man to have such a ridiculous physical talent.
However, it didn't feel real to have an Asian inside.
"Hey, why does this guy look so familiar?”
"Yeah, I remember now. Wasn't he the guy who appeared in the professor's video? His name was Ye Ran, and he was even on the trending searches.”
"So it's him. Looks like I was looking forward to it for nothing. He's just an internet celebrity player.”
"Hahaha, that's true. The only Asian player in all these years is Big Yao. The other players are average.”
"It's best if he doesn't play. Otherwise, he'll know the difference when he faces Andre. I hope it won't dampen his passion for basketball.”
……
Some of the audience members in the stadium started discussing after hearing the commentator's introduction.
At the same time, some people recognized Ye Ran.
However, they did not take him seriously.
Although Ye Ran's various flying and underground movements in the video were very explosive.
However, in America, there was no lack of talent monsters.
Professional basketball and street basketball were on two different levels.
They felt that an internet celebrity player like Ye Ran didn't have much strength at all. If he went on stage, he would probably be beaten up.
The warm-up was over and the match was about to begin.
The Thunder's starting lineup was Reggie Jackson, Jeremy Lamb, Perry Jones, and two fringe players.
On the other hand, the Raptors had Drummond, Middleman, Austin, and two fringe players.
As expected, Ye Ran was not put into the starting lineup by the coach.
This was within his expectations.
However, he did not care too much about it.
The most important thing now was to wait for an opportunity. As long as he was allowed to go on stage, he would immediately be able to use his strength to conquer everyone!
