Due to the ankle injury, Yao Min left the training center that day and returned to the capital to find relevant experts for reexamination.

Roy trained with the national team for a week without realizing it.

During this period, they slowly got used to each other and gradually deepened their understanding of each other.

Roy also impressed everyone with his strength.

However, because Roy returned to the team too late because of the finals, they did not practice together many times.

There is still a long way to go for the tacit understanding and cooperation between the players. Most of the time, Roy relied on his personal ability to train.

The Stankovic Cup was just around the corner, and he rushed to the capital with the team from Qinhuangdao.

The national team could only adopt the strategy of training with competition.

Fortunately, the Stankovic Cup was just a cup competition, and the Basketball Association did not have any performance requirements. After all, Yao Min's injury had not healed.

Roy had just returned from America and needed to get familiar with and get used to it.

However, this did not hinder the enthusiasm of the fans and the media's expectations. Before the game started, they had already started to hype the event. CCTV would even broadcast the national team's games live. From Roy's personal perspective, his debut must definitely leave a good impression on the country's elders and fellow countrymen. For this reason, he trained very seriously. After the training game, he would discuss tactics with head coach Jonas, just to have a good performance in the first game of the national team. Because Roy's attention was too high, when the national men's basketball team's special plane arrived in the capital, the airport was like a big enemy. The turmoil caused by Roy's return last time had not subsided. It is said that the reporter who provoked the incident and the fan who took action were severely punished and detained for a month. It is not yet the seventh day of the first month. In just less than a week, the plague god returned again, and the airport specially arranged personnel. It is said that some fans who were squatting have been wandering around the airport for a few days. After learning from the past and being persuaded by the police,

most of them left, but some of them were still fanatical, so the airport security work was adjusted to a very high security level.

You should know that the last incident caused the airport security director to be reprimanded, and he had to send more personnel to be on guard.

Fortunately, the men's basketball team also knew to keep a low profile at this time. There were a large number of fans and reporters squatting at the gate of the training base in Qinhuangdao every day,

just to be able to take pictures of Roy's training, so Roy didn't dare to step out once in Qinhuangdao.

After all, if he was surrounded, he would have to find someone to help him out, which was too unworthy.

The men's basketball team booked a low-key flight at night and set off in a low-key manner to avoid many fans.

At the Capital Airport, a professional bus was waiting at the airport, and the people were picked up and disappeared into the night.

In order not to cause a commotion, this was a last resort. Roy was also very depressed that he could never go back after becoming famous.

Besides, his height was there, like a shining beacon, and he could not hide there.

However, Roy quickly adjusted his mentality. This is the price of fame.

I can't appear in the crowd as an ordinary person and live an ordinary life.

Then he will use his actual performance on the court to give his fans who support him a wonderful game.

On the morning of July 26, at the Capital Gymnasium

Roy attended the opening ceremony of the Stankovic Cup with the national team. Dr. Cheng Wanqi, President of the International Basketball Federation, personally presided over the opening ceremony and conducted a draw ceremony.

Afterwards, Roy accepted an interview with CCTV. Due to his hasty return, he had to join the national team for training.

As a result, the originally scheduled interview had to be postponed again and again. Finally, he found time when the mode was turned on.

In the CCTV live broadcast, Roy stood in front of the reporter with a humble face.

The interview was relatively simple. Some relatively simple questions were asked. By the way, congratulations to Roy for winning the championship.

Since Roy still had to train with his teammates to adapt to the venue, the interview did not last long.

It ended after about 20 minutes. The official media was not as serious as expected. Instead, the interview process was as relaxed as chatting.

To take care of the audience as much as possible, the Chinese team was scheduled to play the last game at 9:30 pm.

The opponent in the first game was the African champion Angola team, which is a strong team from Africa.

It has participated in the African Championship 16 times and won 10 championships, participated in the Olympics 5 times, and its best result was the 10th place in 1992.

It was learned in advance from the coach that the Angola team sent all the main players who won the championship this time.

In the last two matches with the Chinese team, they were easily defeated by the opponent.

As the strongest team in Africa, the performance of the Angola national team has always been very stable.

Thanks to their excellent physical fitness, super explosive power and defensive ability,

Compared with Asian teams such as the men's basketball team, they haveA big advantage, so every time they were beaten by their oppressive defense and fast offense, they were very tired.

But now it is different. Roy likes this kind of team with rough skills and excellent physical fitness.

What Roy is least afraid of is the jumping man and the rough man, which happens to be both in Angola.

In terms of physical fitness, it is obvious that the opponent will not be Roy's opponent, and the offense is mainly to attack the basket.

For someone whose rim protection ability is in a BUG in the NBA, Roy is confident that he can completely beat his opponent in the game, and he is also prepared to go all out.

The first appearance is related to his image in the hearts of the Chinese people. At this time, Roy is returning home in glory.

Of course, he should show himself to the fullest, and there is no reason to travel in the night in brocade clothes.

After adapting to the venue for a short while, it was the turn of other teams. Roy and his teammates returned to the men's basketball training center in the capital to rest.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Roy and the national team appeared again on the field of the Capital Gymnasium for warm-up.

The whole stadium was surrounded by enthusiastic fans. Whenever Roy scored a goal during the warm-up,

there would always be enthusiastic cheers from the audience on the sidelines.

Roy was also embarrassed. Being too enthusiastic was not a good thing.

Seeing that Roy was obviously not used to the fanatical fans on the field, his teammates were holding back their laughter. Roy could only shake his head helplessly.

After arriving in the capital, Roy realized the distress of becoming famous at a young age. Wherever he went on his itinerary, he would soon be recognized.

Last night, he and his teammates went to the nearby area to buy some daily necessities. They were directly surrounded by people and could only ask for help from the police uncle.

The audience on the stage seemed to be more fanatical than the fans encountered on the street. The warm-up time ended quickly with cheers.

The African champion Angola national team, the players are generally not tall,

The tallest is their center, only 2.04 meters tall, half a head shorter than Roy,

The Angola team obviously knows Roy, all the main players are staring at Roy in the center of the field,

As the MVP and champion of this year's NBA league, Roy's influence has transcended national boundaries,

The opponent greeted Roy politely as soon as he came up, with a star-chasing attitude of a fan meeting his idol,

In his home court, Roy was still quite polite, after all, wearing this red jersey, not only represents himself, but also his motherland.
