Chapter 11 Summer League
July 7, Central Florida, Orlando City.

At 8 a.m. local time, in a hotel near the Magic team, An Xiaonan had already woken up and was washing up when the cell phone in his pocket rang suddenly.

"Hey, Ann, I'm Jisen." The other end of the phone called excitedly.

An Xiaonan was a little confused, why did Ji Sen find him so early in the morning?

"Gison, what's wrong?"

"Great news, Ann, yesterday you stunned our great head coach, Mr. Frank Vogel, with your tryout in the team. You, got a ticket."

"Ticket? What kind of ticket?" An Xiaonan, who was brushing his teeth, hesitated.

"When you came to Orlando, did you learn something about Orlando? When LeBron James, Chris Paul, Dwyane Wade and the three of them all went to Hawaii to honeymoon with their women..." Gisen played tricks and pretended to be a secret.

"When did you come?" An Xiaonan recalled that day at the airport when he was bored playing with his mobile phone, and when he browsed the nba news, there seemed to be something worthy of his attention, but he had forgotten the details...

"Sorry, I can't remember!" An Xiaonan spat out toothpaste foam.

"The Orlando Summer League! It started yesterday. Because of you, our great head coach decided to give you a chance to perform well in the Orlando Summer League because of An Xiaonan's shocking performance."

Hearing this news, An Xiaonan suddenly laughed happily, and said, "Jisen, is this true? When will it start?"

"The game started yesterday, July 7nd. There are eight teams participating this year, and the game will end on July 2th. This is your chance!"

"So, which teams are participating and where?"

"Charlotte Hornets, Miami Heat, Orlando Magic, Indiana Pacers, New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, Oklahoma City Thunder and Detroit Pistons. The venue is our home court."

"Then, I should be participating in the next match?" An Xiaonan said after rinsing his mouth.

"At four o'clock this afternoon, our Magic team played against the Miami Heat. Most of our players participating this time are NBDL (Development League) players, so you should be well-deserved as the boss. But if you want to get their recognition, you still have to You have to show off your skills in front of them. As a street player, you should be very good at this." Gisen's words were full of expectations.

"Okay, I see. I'll go this afternoon." An Xiaonan hung up the phone with some excitement, and he had already received Vogel's first step of approval.Last night, West also called to announce the good news, saying that Magic general manager Hammond was also very interested in him.

If he plays well in the summer league this time, he is likely to get a contract.

"Dididi..." Just as she wiped her face clean, the phone rang again.An Xiaonan answered the phone: "This is An Xiaonan."

"Nan'er, how is it going in Orlando? What hotel are you staying in? Is the food good? Did you sign the contract?" A female voice came from the other end of the phone in Mandarin.

"Stop! Mom, stop." An Xiaonan interrupted the cannon-like "concern" before it caught fire.

"Mom, didn't I say don't look for me if I have nothing to do, I'm busy now. Yesterday's training made my shoulder a little sore, and I have to start my summer league tour this afternoon!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while...

"I... haven't signed the contract so soon..." An Xiaonan sighed, he knew his mother too well.It's not a good thing to be born into a rich family, so the so-called caring is messy.An Xiaonan is not a person who pays attention to money, he likes to live a life like ordinary people, but sometimes everything goes wrong...

"Ah... Is that so... Be good Nan'er, remember to tell mom after signing the contract~ Mary urged me to go swimming, goodbye~"

……

At 3:[-] p.m., the Orlando Magic are at home, and there are already some spectators sparsely sitting in the front row of the stands, and there are some scouts in suits and ties on the sidelines.

"Gison, why did you come with me?" The dazzling sunlight spread on the ground, walking on the way to the arena, An Xiaonan looked at the smiling Gisen beside him speechlessly.

Ji Sen's smile didn't diminish. In fact, he couldn't help but keep laughing as soon as he saw An Xiaonan, and An Xiaonan was a little hairy from laughing.

That feeling is like... looking at your own goddess...

"Are you kidding me? I'm a scout. The brothers in the Development League need my promotion." Gisen tidied up his clothes and said with a smile.

At 03:30, An Xiaonan walked into the locker room of the Magic team, and found that there were all strange faces, even the coach he hadn't seen yesterday, as if he had come to a strange team.Everyone turned their attention to An Xiaonan, which made An Xiaonan feel a little embarrassed.

"Hey, guys, this is your new teammate, an official member of the future Magic team, An Xiaonan from China!" Gisen didn't look embarrassed at all, grinning, and introduced An Xiaonan to everyone present.

"Bright, what the hell is going on, why is there a stranger among us for no reason?" One of the black players spread his hands in confusion.

"This guy is better than you guys. To be honest, everyone here is rubbish." Gisen suddenly turned cold, "I dare to guarantee my salary this summer. With An Xiaonan here, our Magic will be the Orlando summer salary this year." League champions!"

An Xiaonan was taken aback by Ji Sen's sudden shocking speech, and then looked at the players in the locker room, they didn't show any disdain, but were full of shock.

how so?An Xiaonan was puzzled. Logically speaking, suddenly there was such an arrogant person introducing himself so arrogantly, many people should scoff at him!Of the people who can be here, who is not a proud and arrogant person, at this moment, no one has a negative reaction?
"Gisen, is this the Chinese rookie you said yesterday that he dunked Aaron?" The black assistant coach looked up at Gisen and said.

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was silent, and Aaron Gordon was dunked. How is this possible?

This black assistant coach is No.1 under Vogel on the Magic's coaching staff. He was sent by the general manager to coach in the summer league this year. He is also a person with the potential to be a head coach.What he said still carries a lot of weight in this locker room.

An Xiaonan suddenly understood that Gisen was planning for a rainy day and established himself as the leader of the team when he came here.

Thinking of this, An Xiaonan couldn't help but look at this short white man with admiration...
