Chapter 2
""Yes."
Su Hao nodded.
Kupchak continued,"Now the draft has passed, so you can only enter the NBA as a free agent.
And now.
Although you have extremely outstanding physical talents, after all, we know too little about you and don't know whether your talents can be realized.
Therefore.
I am going to sign you a 10-day short-term contract worth 100,000 US dollars, so that you can participate in the Las Vegas Summer League in 3 days.
That is your stage to show and prove yourself.
Then......" I will re-sign a formal contract with you based on your performance. What do you think?" Scott added,"Although it is 100,000 US dollars, it is 10,000 US dollars a day, 3.65 million US dollars a year, which is actually comparable to the salary of the No. 5 in the first round. So, even if it is a 10-day short -term contract, our Lakers' offer is very high, and it is also an absolute recognition of your talent."
"
"Well..."
After listening to this, Su Hao did not hesitate and smiled:"Okay, I will play well in the next summer league."
"Yeah."
Kupchak smiled and nodded,"I'm totally looking forward to your performance"
"Coach Byron!"
And at this time......This year's No. 2 pick Russell came over, and so did the"Black Mamba" Kobe Bryant.
As for why the Lakers were able to select the No. 2 pick?
Of course, it was because the Lakers had the second-to-last record in the Western Conference last season and entered the lottery zone, which is why they had such a high draft pick.
"D'Angelo Russell!"
Scott saw Russell coming, glanced at Su Hao again, and immediately said:"You came just in time, you and this newcomer have a one-on-one fight.
Let me see your skills."
Said.
Scott pointed at Su Hao
"With him?"
Russell glanced at Su Hao with a calm expression. Obviously, in his opinion, this unknown boy must be a rookie who is not in the mainstream.
Or even an undrafted player.
As the second pick this year, he had no desire to fight him one-on-one. It was just the coach's arrangement, so he did not directly refuse.
"OK
Russell agreed.
Scott looked at Su Hao and said,"Su Hao, do you want to give it a try?" This is this year's second-ranked defender, with pretty good strength and talent."
"No problem."
Su Hao also agreed decisively.
After crossing over, he almost went straight to the Lakers for a tryout. He didn't know what kind of energy his current body would have.
Now is the perfect time to try it.
As he said that, the two walked towards the court.
Kobe came to Scott and Kupchak and said,"Who is that new guy? He looks like he has good strength, but......Can he fight DeAngelo?"
"Haha!"
Scott smiled but said nothing.
Kupchak raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:"Be more confident, Kobe, remove the word"seem", and see, he will scare you."
"oh?"
Kobe Bryant blinked, and immediately his eyes fell on the court, on Su Hao.
On the court, the one-on
-one duel between Su Hao and Russell began.
Su Hao attacked first, without switching defenses. If he scored 5 goals first, he would win.
"Bang bang bang!"
Su Hao held the ball at the top of the arc, facing Russell in front of him. While looking at him, his center of gravity slowly lowered, and then......The moment when the right side holds the ball.
A meal at the feet
""Whoosh!"
He rushed to the right, accelerating in one step, like lightning, and passed Russell cleanly in an instant.
"good..."So fast!"
Russell's pupils suddenly dilated, and he was in shock.
Facing the rookie Su Hao in his eyes, although he was not completely serious, he was also defending, but now he was passed like a wooden stake.
Obviously.
Su Hao's speed was amazingly fast.
"Whoosh!"Swoosh!"
Su Hao passed Russell in one step and rushed to the basket. With a slam dunk, he smashed the basketball into the basket.
"Buzz!"
A powerful and heavy dunk that shook the rim and kept wailing.
This dunk was full of violence!
"Wow~"
Kobe, who was watching the game from the sidelines, was so surprised that he roared out and smacked his tongue:"Lightning speed, unparalleled explosion, amazing eyeball power.
This man's physical fitness is so amazing, no, so terrifying!"
"Hahaha~"
Kupchak laughed. Kobe's expression was something he expected, while Scott added with a smile:"This new guy's name is Su Hao."
However, he shouted to Russell on the court:"Hey, be serious, D'Angelo, otherwise you will be beaten by Su Hao."
"Impossible!"
Russell instinctively denied it.
Obviously......As the second pick, he certainly couldn't accept being beaten by a low-ranked rookie, but after this attack, he became completely serious.
"Come on, continue!"
He shouted at Su Hao and took a defensive stance.
"Here it comes!"
Su Hao, who was dunking for the first time in his life, also became excited. He held the ball in his right hand, focused his eyes, and rushed out again the next moment.
"Same breakthrough, you still want to think of me?!"
Russell snorted coldly and moved sideways to catch up
""Bang, bang, bang!"
The two men's bodies suddenly collided with each other, but the next moment, Russell's face showed a ferocious expression, and he was knocked back several steps by Su Hao.
"What kind of power is this?!"
Russell was dumbfounded again.
"Whoosh!"
Su Hao fought and knocked Russell away, accelerated a second time and rushed in, kicked off the ground, and hit Huashan with another two-handed dunk.
"boom!"
Another heavy dunk like lifting a mountain and carrying a tripod, once again making the basket wail continuously.
"Is this the power of a guard?
Russell was terrified.
"Come again!"
Su Hao, who was already completely excited, took the ball and rushed towards Russell again. The latter was also unwilling to accept it and fought with all his strength, but the result was the same. He was knocked away again.
""Bang!"
Another dunk.
Russell frowned, feeling as if his bones were falling apart. Then, another wave came, and Su Hao rushed over again.
"boom!"
Without any bells and whistles, it was another two-handed dunk.
The basket kept whining and trembling, and the impact of"Postman" Malone again and again made Russell's body tremble slightly in pain.
"I surrender!"
In the fifth round, Russell threw down his hands and admitted defeat while dodging. Holding his chest, which was still in pain, he came to Scott and complained:"Coach.
He is just a monster. With this strength, even some strikers can't stand it, right?
I......I can't fight"
"hehe!"
Scott smiled and said nothing.
Kupchak nodded and said,"Indeed, after all,......Su Hao has a bench press strength that exceeds that of"The Mailman" Malone.
You really can't fight him."
Kobe said,"D'Angelo, you have to know that Su Hao is also a guard like you. You can't match his strength, speed, or burst.
So, you were beaten by Su Hao!!!"
