Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

To participate in the NBA draft, a player must first meet some conditions, such as the most basic one, which is that he must be 19 years old or older.

Before 2006, the NBA allowed players under the age of 19 to participate in the draft.

For example, LeBron James graduated from high school and participated in the NBA draft before he was 19 years old and did not go to college.

And Kobe Bryant before him didn't go to college either.

However, in 06, the NBA changed the rules and players participating in the draft must be over 19 years old.

For another example, if an overseas player has no American college basketball experience, he will automatically be eligible for the draft when he reaches the age of 22.

If overseas players under the age of 22 want to participate in the draft, they need to submit a written application to the NBA 45 days in advance to express their desire to participate in the NBA draft.

There are some other rules...

In short, participating in the NBA draft is not a simple matter. Many players will prepare six months, one year, or even two or three years in advance to participate in the NBA draft.

Being eligible for the draft is only a basic requirement. To participate in the NBA draft, you need to hire an agent, let the agent operate, and submit draft materials.

Some players will participate in some training camps to show off their talents in order to gain more attention.

In addition, if a team invites you to a trial training, you will have to participate in the NBA team's training, and most of them will participate in more than one team's trial training.

The NBA will also hold joint trials and invite many players to participate.

This even includes some players who will not participate in the draft that year. They participate in the joint trial just to show themselves and become familiar, so as to lay the foundation for the next year's draft.

During the period before the draft, agents will manage the players' draft affairs, not only participating in trial training, but also publicity and publicity.

For example, Zhuang Yu.

If he signs with a certain brokerage company, then the brokerage company will arrange for him to participate in some activities, trial training, and promote him through various channels to increase his popularity.

That's what Shabazz Mohammed did last year.

The draft is about selecting players. It depends on the player's talent and strength, but it is not entirely the same. It also includes other factors. It is a very complicated thing.

For example, the commercial value of a player.

To give an example, Yao Ming participated in the NBA draft.

Although he was very good, many people did not think he was worthy of the No. 1 pick, but in the end Yao Ming was selected by the Rockets with the first overall pick.

There is the blessing of identity. The NBA takes a fancy to the Chinese market behind Yao Ming, and the Rockets take a fancy to the Chinese market behind Yao Ming.

Therefore, he deserves the No. 1 pick.

There are also times when, in order to maintain mystery, or the player or agent has reached an agreement with a certain team, the player may refuse to participate in a trial.

But no matter how many things happen later, you must first hire an agent - you can't participate in the NBA draft without an agent.

For the next two days, Anderson and LaVine missed practice because they also had to prepare for the NBA draft.

Yes.

Not only Zhuang Yu, but also Anderson and LaVine will participate in the NBA draft. In addition to them, Parker, Powell, and Adams on the team will also participate in the NBA draft.

It is also rare for six players from one team to participate in the NBA draft together.

Of course, it's not that great for UCLA.

Six players from the team participated in the draft, and some senior players graduated. The team's lineup will be directly cut in half, and more new players will have to be recruited next season.

Fortunately, UCLA won the championship this time. As a winning team, their recruitment this summer will be easier.

......

"Shh!"

A soft sound.

Zhuang Yu stood on the three-point line and raised his right hand.

"arrive."

Brown Jr. yelled from the sidelines.

This group of three-point shooting training ended with a group of 186, and Zhuang Yu hit , with a hit rate of %.

"Boss, the hit rate is 93%." Little Brown ran over. Neither he nor Lamb will participate in the draft and have not graduated yet, so they naturally have time to train with Zhuang Yu.

"Yeah." Zhuang Yu nodded.

Although it's just training, this hit rate is already outstanding.

Today there are only Zhuang Yu, Lamb, and Brown in the arena. Anderson, LaVine, Adams, Parker, Powell and others are all busy.

Some players are enjoying their vacation.

Today's training also came to an end, and the three of them came to the sidelines.

Little Brown looked a little sad and said, "Hey, when you all leave, only Lamb and I will be left."

Zhuang Yu smiled and slapped him on the back of the head, and said angrily: "Why are you sighing? They are going to enter the NBA. You should be happy for them." With that, he patted Brown and Lamb on the shoulders again. , "Work hard, I hope you can all become the main players next season."

"We are waiting for you in the NBA, come on."

Little Brown and Lamb nodded with great satisfaction.

After returning to the dormitory after training, Anderson had not returned yet. Zhuang Yu checked the time, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message.

Half an hour later.

The phone rang and received a text message from Zhou Zhiming.

Zhuang Yu turned on the computer and had a video connection with Zhou Zhiming. Zhou Zhiming's face appeared on the screen. He said with a smile: "You still have time to see me, shouldn't you be busy with the draft?"

"I haven't decided to participate in the draft yet." Zhuang Yu touched his nose.

"Don't come here." Zhou Zhiming said with a smile: "I'm keeping this secret from you, Uncle Zhou. I've won the championship, so why are you still staying at UCLA? I heard that many NBA teams are interested in you. In ESPN's predicted draft pick On the list, you have already entered the top ten."

When Zhuang Yu mentioned ESPN's predicted draft pick list, he couldn't help but curl his lips, Mader, that thing is absolutely disgusting.

Before, I reached the semi-finals, but the opponent still ranked me out of the lottery area, just one place away. This is clear discrimination.

Later he simply stopped looking at it.

After UCLA won the championship, Zhuang Yu's popularity reached its peak, and ESPN had to modify the draft pick list, ranking Zhuang Yu's predicted draft pick in the top ten, ranking 8th overall.

Yes, just the eighth pick.

Moreover, Julius Randle of the University of Kentucky happens to be the seventh pick, one pick higher than Zhuang Yu.

Damn, is there anything more disgusting than this?

Not to mention Zhuang Yu who was disgusted, even Randall was disgusted.

In a championship game, Zhuang Yu scored 28 points, while Randall only scored 19 points. It was clear which one was stronger, not to mention that UCLA won in the end.

But ESPN actually ranked Zhuang Yu behind Randall, which clearly disgusted Zhuang Yu.

Randall also felt speechless. Aren't you putting me in the line of fire and letting the fans spray me?

He was really depressed. I didn't do anything, and I also lost the championship. It was pitiful enough, but wasn't it enough?

However, the fans don't care about this. They just think that you, Randall, are defeated. Why are you ranked in front of Zhuang Yu?

There are a lot of people trolling Randall online during this time.
