Chapter 935 The Magical Thirteenth Pick

This year's draft has many domestic fans paying attention, mainly because a Chinese player called "The Big Devil" will also participate in this draft.

Well, maybe because of Wang Zelin, Zhou Qi's market conditions are much better now than they were in the original time and space, so he is also full of confidence in his future.

However, Wang Zelin still has a negative attitude towards this little brother. He is really too thin. The top priority is to train well and try to gain more weight.

His partner in the World Series in the past two years gave him a different view of the big devil, so before the draft, he also had a special phone call with Zhou Qi for encouragement.

If he is not selected, the Trail Blazers, for the sake of Wang Zelin, should be able to give Zhou Qi a spot in the summer league and let him show off his talents.

Of course, that's all.

How far Zhou Qi can reach in the future can only depend on him.



Seeing that the time was almost up, Wang Zelin and Orsi entered the draft cabin.

After everything is in place for the live broadcast and broadcast process, the draft will begin immediately.

Bald Hua walked out from behind the stage, and his face didn't look very good.

The season has come to an end, but the controversy over the finals referee's blatant black whistle has never stopped.

If Wang Zelin hadn't scored in the tiebreaker and won the championship for the Trail Blazers, the league might not have ended.

Under such influence, the league's board of directors and team owners have strong opinions on Bald Hua, and have even proposed the idea of ​​replacing the league president.

If he hadn't negotiated a new broadcast contract in advance, he might have stepped down by now.

But even though he barely kept his position, his influence was far less than before.

When he walked to the front desk, Bald Hua faced the camera and tried his best to smile, but what followed was boos from the audience.

If it was just a symbolic traditional ceremony for Stern and him in previous seasons, this time it is serious.

One can imagine how unhappy the current fans are with him and the league.

Wang Zelin watched this scene on TV in the draft cabin, and he felt so happy.

The reason why he agreed to come to the draft was partly because he wanted to watch Bald Hua in person.

Looking at Bald Hua's depressed expression, he knew that the trip was worthwhile.

It's just a pity that Bald Hua didn't step down this time, but if this momentum continues, he won't be far away from stepping down.

I have the impression that the league completely advocates offense, and body hair whistles are prevalent during the season, when the league introduces new foul rules.

According to the current momentum, Bald Hua probably won't be able to survive that day.

"Welcome to Brooklyn, New York..." After reading the first sentence, the bald man finally felt relieved, and then said quickly:

"The first pick belongs to the Philadelphia 75ers, and they have five minutes to consider it."

After saying all this, he turned and walked backstage.

Unsurprisingly, this year has been the most painful draft for him since he took office.

"King, who will they choose?"

The Trail Blazers have a total of two draft picks this year, one is the 30th pick at the end of the first round, and the remaining one is the 35th pick in the second round. It is still early for these two picks.

The draft has just begun, and it is routine to discuss the No. 1 pick.

"The probability of Ben is relatively high."

Wang Zelin blurted out and directly called out the nickname of future 75ers sharpshooter Ben Simmons.

Ignoring Orsi's doubts, the five minutes quickly came and Bald Hua came out with the envelope containing the selection results of 75 people.

He was greeted with boos again, but this time his expression was obviously much calmer.

When the envelope was opened and the results were about to be announced, the scene became quiet again.

Who will be the winner of the new top prize?

Still very exciting.

Simmons, Ingram, and Brown all had their heads figured out.

"With the first pick, the Philadelphia 75ers chose... Ben Simmons, a 2.08 meter small forward from the University of Louisville!"

When Bald Hua read out this choice, the 75 fans who came to the scene screamed loudly.

Simmons' performance in college was far superior to that of his fellow rookies, and he was affectionately hailed by the media as the next James.

The 75ers' selection of him was viewed by fans and media people as a sure-win deal.

"The 75ers are about to rise!"

Orsi said instinctively.

The 75ers have chosen to believe in the process over the years. After successive drafts, they have accumulated enough talent in the team, and they are just about to usher in the day when it will bloom.

Wang Zelin next to him smiled and said nothing.

Ben's talent is indeed outstanding, but his weird mentality is a big problem. To a certain extent, he can even compete with the later Ou Shenxian.

But what does this have to do with the Trail Blazers? One is in the West and the other is in the East. It would be difficult for Philadelphia to get rid of James' dominance in the East!

The Philadelphia 75ers selected Ben Simmons, and the Boston Celtics unsurprisingly selected Brandon Ingram, whose draft template was Kevin Durant.

In terms of draft talent alone, Ingram, the small forward from Duke, is indeed better than Jaylen Brown. There is nothing wrong with the Celtics management selecting him.

The Phoenix Suns selected Jaylen Brown with the third overall pick, and they teamed up with Devin Booker, who was selected last year, at the second and third picks.

With the fourth pick, the Minnesota Timberwolves selected guard Kris Dunn, and together with Towns, who was selected last year, they can form a talented duo with one outside and one inside.

With the fifth pick, the New Orleans Pelicans selected power center Dragan Bender.

With the sixth pick, the Denver Nuggets selected Buddy Hield.



Now the butterfly effect is getting bigger and bigger, but the lineups and histories of the respective teams have changed a lot, and even the draft picks have changed.

For example, the Lakers, who should have been picked second in the original timeline, only received the 13th pick in the first round this time.

Considering that the Lakers once received the best returns in history for this magical pick, the Lakers management did not hesitate to choose a young combo guard this time.

That is, because after the Nuggets selected young guard Buddy Hield, who is also 1.93 meters tall, they unexpectedly fell to Jamal Murray with the 13th overall pick.

Mouth mamba settles in Angeles City?!

When he saw this result, Wang Zelin's expression was quite strange.

In his memory, the 2016 draft was just a small draft year. The talent rate in this draft was mediocre, and there were only a few players who could grow into All-Star players.

Although Murray did not make the All-Star list, this kid did show All-Star level abilities and skills in the future.

At least in the same draft, Murray is among the outstanding ones.

Looking at it this way, the Lakers management still has something, and they can pick a treasure in such a young draft year.

Of course, it may also have something to do with the magical 13th pick.
