Jordan did not seem to pay much attention to Duke, but he had spoken. The team's management did not dare to neglect him. The next morning, a call was made to Duke's cell phone.
Duke and Kuame Brown stayed in the same hotel, and Kuame Brown even arranged for Duke to stay in the same hotel as soon as Duke was qualified to be his sparring partner.
Kuame Brown was a good boy.
The eight siblings were all raised by their mother alone. In order to help the family, the four brothers followed in their father's footsteps and sold drugs to earn money.
His mother even had to work part-time to buy him a basketball.
In order to change this situation, after he became the top scorer, he sent more than half of his first year's salary back home. He thought that staying in a hotel was more cost-effective than buying a house, so he rented a hotel for an entire year and still hadn't moved out.
His family suddenly became better. He bought a new house far away from the slums.
He didn't care that he was living a frugal life.
He was also very loyal. After receiving Jordan's personal trial invitation to Duke yesterday, he had been waiting for a call from Duke since early in the morning.
When Duke received the call from the management, he was even more excited than the other party. The moment he hung up the phone, he jumped up and punched hard.
"Like I said, Michael always keeps his word.”
"You really got the chance to try out for the team.”
"Thank you!"
Although Duke knew that Kuame Brown didn't put in any effort, he still got the chance because of him. With the star card, he had to say thank you.'
Kuame Brown, on the other hand, was embarrassed. He replied shyly,""I didn't do anything at all. It was Boss who took a fancy to you. It's none of my business.”
"No matter what, thank you.”
"If you hadn't agreed to my request to be my sparring partner, Michael wouldn't have had the chance to see you.”
"You're really welcome!"
Bu Lang laughed happily and said heroically,"Next, I wish you a successful trial and wish you a teammate in the future.”
Teammates?
Silly boy, if the trial is successful, it means that I will most likely snatch your position and time in the future. Why are you so happy?
Bu Lang might not have realized this, but he kept looking at him with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation.
The trial was scheduled for three in the afternoon. During this time, Jordan did not appear, and neither did the coach, Collins. Only Kuo Mei Brown accompanied Duke, the assistant general manager, and the staff for training.
At this time, the team leaders were busy with the upcoming draft and the free market in the summer. How could they have the mood to personally try out a rookie who had never played in an official game?
It was long past the rookie team's trial period. Today's trial was just a last-minute addition by Jordan and the Wizards to Duke's personal arrangement.
The Wizards had three draft picks this year, two in the first round and one in the second round.
There were many opportunities to choose from, and they had many goals, so they didn't mind giving Duke a trial.
First, they did a physical test. After an hour, Duke's physical condition was transformed into real data on the form.
The data was not much different from Duke's stats panel, but it shocked everyone except him.
Especially in terms of physical hardware…
216cm, an outstanding height, 5 cm taller than the highly anticipated Kuame Brown.
Not to mention his wingspan, which was 20 centimeters taller than Duke and 10 centimeters taller than Brown, the staff and the assistant manager were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
The most important thing was Duke's palm. It was very big and long. Compared to Bu Lang's small hand, it was like a big hand holding a small hand. It could completely cover the latter's palm.
It was because of his small hands that Brown could not hold the ball easily. Duke's palm was 28 centimeters long, 0.1 centimeters longer than O'Neal's. He could catch the basketball as easily as he could catch a volleyball.
Of course, it wasn't good to be too big. Catching a woman's ball would be a pointless experience.
However, this kind of physical condition was enough for him to be talented.
When it came to bench presses, Duke's talent was truly reflected. The highest bench press he could do was 210 kilograms, which was higher than O'Neal, Karl Malone, and the rumored strongest player, Ben Wallace.
"This kind of power is enough to overturn a Tyrannosaurus Rex.”
One of the staff members looked at the data with his mouth agape. Then, he looked at Duke's muscles…
It was clearly not very strong, and could only be said to be the essence of his entire body. However, it hid such a huge amount of energy. It was really terrifying…
With such strength and physical conditions, why would he have to worry about not being able to fight against that big shark?
However, compared to these talents, Duke's other test results weren't as shocking. This made people feel a little regretful.
They wanted to see something even more terrifying.
4 points of movement in the three-second zone (horizontal movement speed): 11.59 seconds;
3/4 (22.86m) sprint: 3.45 seconds;
[Maximum number of bench presses: 25 (with ease)]
30 inches, about 76cm;
Run-up jump: 33 inches, approximately 84cm.
Not long after, Michael Jordan, who was sitting opposite his mentor in the manager's office and discussing draft goals, received Duke's physical test data sheet.
"Hmm? Not bad. It was a little unexpected.”
Duke's physical fitness was surprisingly good. It made Jordan feel as amazed as when he had tried to train Kuame Brown last year.
A seven-foot-long man actually had such agility and speed. It was extremely shocking.
In particular, his height, wingspan, and strength were even better than that of Kuame Brown. He looked like Wilt Chamberlain reborn, which surprised Jordan even more.
Collins took the data sheet and looked at it in detail. He was also surprised." Is this a competitor for Shaquille O'Neal?”
