Chapter 193 A Risky Investment That Will Make It Right 7 (1/2)

In fact, Jake did not know but he did not have the record of most points made in a game so far, in college basketball in the '50s a player made 113 points, Jake was remembering a piece of news he read in 2012 where a player college students scored 138 points in one game.

But Jake was now in 1995, so he was far from 2012 yet, at university he could try to break that record again with more game time, yet without the internet people just remembered Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point record.

But that record was far more impressive than Jake's 123 points because even if an NBA game had more time, the opponents were much more difficult and the game was much more tiring.

Jake still had a lot to improve in another 5 years to get the chance to do that many points, but nowadays this was impossible even with another 5 years Jake still thought it was impossible for him to reach that level even with the help of the system.

After that Jake went home happy and satisfied, he had achieved a difficult thing and a difficult goal in a player's life, so he was much more motivated to reach the NBA and improve even more.

In fact Jake had heard of a 100-point curse in his past life, people who could make 100 plus points in a game ended up not playing for the NBA in their careers, so he was more than willing to do away with it.

Jake did not forget to call his mother to tell him about the victory and also about the record, Eva was very happy with the news about the victory, but she could not even know how to react by listening to Jake's record.

After all, it was something that nobody talked about much, but as Jake was happy she was happy too, so Jake can rest well after a game like that.

But the other morning Jake heard a piece of news that made him sad, that he had not been able to beat the record for more points made in a single game in high school, Eric was the one who had heard this from his fellow reporters and called to warn Jake about this.

The record was for Danny Heater and it was in 1960, it was a record with 135 points in 32 minutes, Jake thought it was incredible he had a triple Double, but Heater had done 7 assists and 32 rebounds in the same game, which was more incredible for Jake.

If Jake had not tried to keep Triple Double making 10 assists he could have made at least another 30 points in the first period, but now it was too late to complain, yet it was still an incredible record.

Jake thanked Eric for warning him otherwise he could have been ashamed, fortunately, he told his mother that he had just broken a record and did not say he was the one who had the most points.

Now Jake thought it was a good idea to forget about it, after all, he was very selfish in this game and should not try again.

At school no one else commented on this, Jake was a little sad because this was a private school that was more focused on studies, so people cared more to get good grades than what was happening in the sport.

Of course, at this point Jake was very respected for having the highest grade in the class, now they could say that Jake was the best student of the school with his perfect grades in the last year and still contributing with titles in the school basketball team.

Joseph who understood more about basketball congratulated Jake a lot on this incredible record since he started dating Liza and still with the university coming they were less time getting together.

Jake was also very busy with business, basketball, athletics, and his mother who thought it normal for Joseph to be busy too, but Jake did not know Joseph did not feel the same way.

When they met the two were only 10 years old, Jake liked Joseph because he was very simple like him and had no friends and even being rich did not care about the money he had.

But Jake forgot that in fact Joseph was still 10 years old at the time and was alone for not having friends, so he looked like that when the years went by as normally happens when he grows older Joseph's personality also began to change.

And Jake was still the same because his mentality was over 40 and would not change anymore, so after 6 years of friendship much changed for Joseph, he became aware that his family was rich and what it meant to have money.

Before his friends were all selfish and so the money was bad for Joseph, but he was still young at that time and forgot everything, so Joseph sought to be the best student in the room and also to lose weight to look like Jake.
