The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 29 Trials for the Los Angeles Clippers

After finishing the NCAA competition, Li Ze allowed himself to relax for a few days. During the day, he went to class and studied, and exercised with iron when he had time. His life was very regular.

Li Ze wants to graduate smoothly, but there are too many financial courses, including preparatory courses, compulsory courses, and elective courses. His school projects are basically paddling, and he is guided by his friends throughout the process.

Li Ze's learning ability is very good, but he is not a genius, barely considered excellent, he can't compare with Britney in this regard, this girl also took music as an elective, and the credits are already enough, she will wait until her senior year for an internship.

"Kayce, in fact, you don't have to be so concerned about the project, we will definitely help you out, and the college is easy to talk to, after all, you are going to play in the NBA!"

White is a brown-haired Caucasian guy, and Li Ze's good friend at UCLA. The professional courses are thanks to him.

"I will complete my tasks when I have time. After all, I always rely on you for help, and I feel sorry!" Li Ze didn't want to keep getting something for nothing.

"These are small things, just take me to your party a few more times!" White gave Li Ze a look that you know.

"No problem, hot girls are enough!" Li Ze readily agreed.

"Om..." Li Ze saw that it was his manager calling, and immediately signaled that he needed to go out.

"Kayce, do you have time in the afternoon? The Clippers would like to invite you over to talk first. There should be an official invitation to try out tomorrow."

Chapman Able is Li Ze's manager at Big Machine Records, and is currently in charge of contacting him for some trial training.

"No problem, it seems that you are very suitable for this job. It is indeed the right choice to ask you!" Li Ze was in a good mood and began to tease Chapman.

"Come on, Kayce, I signed you because of your musical talent, but you ended up playing basketball in high school, and you almost ended my managerial career prematurely!"

Chapman suddenly said loudly angrily.

"My decision was a bit hasty at first, but I also introduced you to Taylor. Aren't you very good now? Besides, you are dealing with people. Isn't that what you are good at?"

Li Ze continued to tease with a smile.

"Please, all I deal with are record companies, you have to release a single this year, you have been dove me for several years!" Chapman has already begun to lose his temper.

"No problem, but now you have to help me with some team matters. You have so many friends, so there must be a few in the sports circle." Li Ze made another picture.

"I hope your single is of good quality. I will help with the draft. This is America. Meidao will help us. Besides, I do have a lot of friends."

"That's good, see you this afternoon, remember to pick me up!" Li Ze hung up the phone quickly, otherwise he would be nagged again.

Chapman-Able is a quintessential American white man, 40 years old, in the prime of his life, with a worrisome hairline and a sense of integrity that has made him many friends in the brokerage circle.

At first, the Dutton family bought Big Machine Records mainly for Li Ze and Taylor. As a result, Li Ze chose basketball in high school, and Taylor became more and more popular.

Especially when Chapman got through the channel of Universal Music through his PY relationship, record sales exploded. Don’t look at Chapman complaining in front of Li Ze, but in fact this guy has already made a lot of money.
Chapman naturally knew the relationship between the Dutton family and Li Ze, and he knew who was the thigh, not to mention that Big Machine Records was very generous to singers and managers, so he naturally cared about Li Ze's affairs.

In the afternoon, Li Ze arrived as scheduled and met Clippers head coach Mike Dunleavy in a coffee shop not far from UCLA.

"Nice to meet you, Li. You performed really well in the NCAA Finals. You had 30 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists. I was there at the time."

Dunleavy came up and started playing routinely first.

"It's unbelievable. Would a legendary coach like you pay attention to the NCAA? It's really my honor." Li Ze was flattering.

"Haha, I'm just an ordinary coach. Of course I have been paying attention to college basketball. After seeing your performance, I called the general manager of the team directly. I hope to see you in the Clippers next season!"

"Thank you for the invitation. I can't promise anything right now, but I like Los Angeles and I like the Clippers. If there is an opportunity to work together, it will be a wonderful experience."

Li Ze doesn't need money for good words, so he can say whatever is really good.

"Then I'm looking forward to the trial training at the end of the month." Dunleavy also laughed.

Next, the two started to boast about their business, and had a big chat. In the end, the host and guest had a good time and returned satisfied.

"Kayce, you don't really want to go to the Clippers, do you? Seeing you have a good chat." Chapman was a little puzzled.

"It's good to be able to play in Los Angeles, but the Clippers may not choose me. If they have the first pick, they may choose Griffin. After all, their team owner has always been optimistic about that guy."

"My friends in the sports circle told me that the Clippers are not a good choice, and there are some problems with their team culture." Chapman kindly suggested.

"Don't worry, I know what's on my mind. You can help me arrange the trial training schedule. Of course, you also have to help me with the contract." Li Ze replied with a relaxed face.

"It's all small things. I'll take care of them for you. Is the single ready? Do you want me to help you find someone to polish it? And your band friends are waiting for you, and they always complain to me about being in Taylor. It's boring over there."

Seeing that Chapman was about to start nagging again, Li Ze hurriedly interrupted.

"The single is fine, don't worry, I'll go to practice first, bye!" Li Ze ran away directly, leaving behind a distraught Chapman.

The time came to April 4, and Li Ze came to the Clippers training hall early.

The Los Angeles Clippers have been playing poorly this season, fishing early, and the main players of the team are not seen in the training hall. After all, basketball is just work. At this time, most of them are going to have fun.

When Li Ze arrived at the training hall, he found that most of them were trainers, and the Clippers players only had one big man warming up there.

DeAndre Jordan, selected by the Clippers with the 5th pick in the second round last year, is a jumping man with a bit rough technique.

"Hey, Bro, do you still come to the training hall to practice at this time? You are too self-disciplined!" Li Ze stepped forward to say hello.

"Nice to meet you, Kayce, you've played so well this year, will you come to the Clippers next season?" DeAndre Jordan looked at Li Ze and flattered him.

"It depends on the Clippers' choice. I'm just here for a trial training today." Li Ze shrugged.

"Okay, lads, let's move our bodies first, and then start the trial training." The head coach Dunleavy immediately greeted the trainer and Li Ze.

After fully warming up with the Clippers trainer, Li Ze started the simplest body side link.

"Height without shoes is 201cm, weight is 97kg, arm span is 214cm, standing height is 271cm."

"The 10.9-yard speed test took 97 seconds, the in-situ bounce was 110cm, and the run-up bounce was [-]cm."

Dunleavy looked at these stats a little stunned. This physical stat might be a bit worse than LeBron James. This is definitely a genius!

The trainers and DeAndre Jordan were also a little dazed when they saw Li Ze's physical data, which was really scary.

Originally they thought that Li Ze was mainly shooting, and his physical fitness would not be too outstanding, but after looking at his jumping and speed, it is no wonder that he is so easy to play in the NCAA. His body is definitely no problem in the NBA!
"I must sign him!" Dunleavy made up his mind.
