One Guard

Chapter 36: The Young Star

"Ahhhhh!" Yiyang stood in the center of the field and raised his arms, roaring loudly!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' was the answer to Yiyang.

Almost all the Bulldogs fans in blue short-sleeves, no matter men, women or children, followed Yiyang and raised their arms, expressing the long-suppressed strength in their hearts!

"Damn you! You stole all our limelight!" Shervin Mark swears, and suddenly throws himself at Yiyang who raised his arms high. The captain of the Bulldogs hugged Yiyang tightly, he knew very well that if it wasn't for this guy, the Bulldogs might have gone home already.

This No. 1 jersey, which represents No. 1, was really given to the wrong person!

Gordon Hayward jumped up and landed on Yiyang's back. The white small forward laughed like a kid who got candy.

Although in the first half of the game, Hayward's performance was very bad. But in the second half, under Yiyang's tandem, Hayward also gradually regained the feeling of the game.

He knew that what led him to victory was not only the recovered touch, but also Yiyang's hard work on the court, which completely infected Hayward.

His two consecutive chasing three-pointers are the key to the Bulldogs' ability to open the score. The key to Hayward's rebound was Yiyang.

Afterwards, more and more people surrounded Yiyang, and this Asian defender has now become the center of the Bulldogs.

In the stands, the fans were still cheering for Yiyang. Star striker Wesley Johnson? Veteran coach Jim Boheim? No one cares about the two of them, at this moment, the biggest star is Yiyang!

On the big screen at the scene, the highlights of Yiyang's match were still played over and over again. Today, Yiyang's excellence is not only in passing the ball. When Hayward can't score, he can also take up the heavy responsibility of scoring and attack the city for the team.

At this moment, countless NBA scouts in suits and leather shoes called their general manager. "I brought you a surprise, you can choose whether to get him or not!"

After wild celebrations, the Bulldogs began to walk slowly down the tunnel. Stevens has been standing on the sidelines, waiting for Yiyang who returned to his usual cold appearance after the outburst.

"Your performance is great!" Stevens stretched out his hand and hugged Yiyang tightly.

"Thank you for trusting me." Yiyang whispered in Stevens' ear, without any tone.

Yiyang knew that if Stevens hadn't chosen to use himself to shoulder the heavy responsibilities in this game, maybe he wouldn't have gotten so many performance opportunities at all. And his suggestion to Stevens to only rest for three minutes in the second half of the game was also adopted. Had Stevens insisted on going his own way, the result of the game might have been completely different.

Yiyang likes the feeling of being trusted by others, because trust means that a person accepts you sincerely. For Yiyang, who was excluded all the time as a child, this experience is quite precious.

Stevens patted Yiyang on the shoulder in relief. From knowing this child to now, he only heard Yiyang say thank you twice. This word will not be easily uttered by Yiyang, but when he utters it, it means that this child is really grateful to you.

Subsequently, Yiyang was overwhelmed by a huge number of reporters. Stevens, on the other hand, was pushed outside by the crowd.

Seeing Yiyang surrounded by reporters, Stevens waved his fist excitedly. As a coach, what could be more satisfying than watching a young player thrive under his own hands?

Gordon Hayward, Shelvin Mark, Matt Howard... Now, another Yiyang appeared in Stevens' hands. This guy, he doesn't know if he is really God's favorite, because there are always a lot of good guys playing under him.

Stevens knows, with such a lineup. This year, the Bulldogs' championship dream will no longer be just a dream!

The young coach looked at Yiyang who was overwhelmed by the crowd, left the field silently, and disappeared at the entrance of the player tunnel. Today, leave this stadium to Yiyang completely. Today, Yiyang is the master of the basketball court!

※※※

Since the March Madness Championship entered the second stage, it has attracted more and more attention. The Sweet 16 match, the degree of attention of this kind of game can be said to be no worse than the NBA in the United States.

Basketball fans are no longer talking about Bryant and James, but about the schools that made it to the "Elite Eight" and their star players.

Yiyang is undoubtedly a topic that can never be avoided in the discussion about NCAA.

Now, there are only 8 remaining NCAA teams, and their head coaches must have a complete player report in their hands. Yiyang is now an opponent that every coach must go to. His appearance will definitely allow the Bulldogs to achieve any incredible results in the championship.

And in China, Yiyang's popularity is also rising. In the last game, the video of him scoring 22 points, 13 assists and 3 steals leading the team to eliminate Syracuse University has been spread in China like crazy. Most Chinese fans discovered for the first time that Chinese defenders can also be lightning fast on the basketball court! And the change of Yiyang's position in the draft prediction list in the future will definitely affect the hearts of thousands of people.

There are even rumors that the Chinese Basketball Association has quietly dispatched an investigation team, preparing to recruit this talented defender who "turned out of nowhere".

For Yiyang, his life has naturally been greatly affected by his fame.

Now, whether he is attending class or training by himself, he always meets several reporters on the road and asks various questions.

"Can you speak Chinese?"

Yiyang rolled his eyes at the reporter who asked this question.

"If you lose the election, will you choose to play in the CBA league?"

After listening to another reporter's question, Yiyang suddenly felt that the question of whether he could speak Chinese was not so mentally handicapped.

"Hi, I'm Mu Ran, a reporter from "Basketball" magazine. I would like to conduct a one-on-one interview with you on behalf of the magazine and Chinese fans. If you can, please contact me anytime." In front of Yang, he handed out his business card.

This reporter, who is different from others, attracted Yiyang's attention. Yiyang took the business card slowly, and looked at the name and phone number on it.

Yiyang didn't speak, but nodded slightly to Mu Ran. After that, he squeezed out and headed towards the basketball court.

"Stinky boy! What are you dragging!?" Seeing that Yiyang left in a hurry without answering any questions, some reporters started whispering in private.

"That's right, I haven't played in the NBA yet, so I'm just so arrogant. If I play professional basketball in the future, I'll be fine!"

Mu Ran looked at the reporters who complained in a low voice, but did not participate in the discussion.

He knew that Yiyang was just not ready to become a star yet. This guy just wants to put all his mind on basketball.

Give him some space, this time in college may be Yiyang's last quiet days.

Every day after that, this poor kid from Woodlands had to live in the spotlight.

This kid is still far from mature...?
