Chapter 32 (1/2)

As usual, link always wakes up before the alarm goes off.

In the small rental house, he simply washed, picked up two pieces of toast and sat at home listening carefully.

But link suddenly realized that he couldn't hear upshaw honking his horn downstairs today, and never again.

With a bitter smile, link picked up the equipment he needed to wear today and was ready to leave.

The next chapter of upshaw's life will be written by him.

Link was the first to arrive at the stadium, a habit he developed during his short ten day trip to Houston.

After such a long effort and three NBA games, link's progress bar will be filled. In other words, playing different levels of the game, the progress bonus is also different.

Link took out his basketball shoes and suddenly remembered that upshaw had said that if he entered the NBA, he would give himself a pair of basketball shoes.

Now, link wrote two words on his basketball shoes.

”R.I.P. Zeke.”

From now on, Zick upshaw will fight with link.

After more than 40 minutes of practice, linkgar's team-mates continued to arrive. I can see that everyone is very motivated today and no one wants to lose against the backdrop of upshaw's death.

Of course, everyone also wants to help link out of a bad breath, let the Rockets see the development of league players' character.

Before the game starts, the players return to the dressing room to change their shirts. Instead of going to his locker, link sat down in front of upshaw's locker and put his number 0 shirt on.

”Link?” Conor looked at link in surprise. He thought that link was in a trance because he was too tired to wear the wrong shirt.

”Coach, I want to wear No.0 in the future. I can't prepare a new shirt now. Can I just wear Zick's? ”

Link looks at the number on his chest and smiles. In the past, his No. 5 shirt, in fact, had no meaning. It was just because the team assigned him no. 5 when he played in junior high school, so he has been wearing No. 5 until now.

Now, however, link has found his own number.

Zero, start at zero, go ahead. No. 0, with upshaw's expectations, march forward.

The whole dressing room looked at link, and there was no one better qualified to wear the upshaw shirt than link.

After listening to link's explanation, Connor nodded and did not stop him. ”I'll discuss with the judges. Today, the number 0 belongs to you.”

Link stood up, upshaw's shirt was a little short for him, but it didn't hurt. He looks at his teammates in the dressing room and raises his right fist.

”Today, let's win a victory for Zick.”

”Roar!”

All the people in the dressing room yelled at the load. At that moment, the Chinese in the No.0 shirt seemed to be a brave military commander.

At that moment, Connor believed. That kid is going to make it.

Rio Grande Valley Viper team is probably the most familiar Development League team for Chinese fans. After all, in the future, Chinese player Zhou Qi will play for the Viper team.

The vipers are luckier than the blue team, and they always have the support of NBA teams. During the 2007-08 season, the vipers belonged to the Cleveland Cavaliers. In the 2008-09 season, the vipers were acquired by the New Orleans Hornets.

Since the 2009-10 season, the vipers have been affiliated to the Houston Rockets. Compared with the blue team, the Viper team at least does not have to worry about their livelihood, does not have to worry about the day the team will be disbanded.

So, compared to the blue players, the vipers look very relaxed today.

Among them, de mare Carroll is the most relaxed one.

Carroll was chosen by the Grizzlies in the 27th place in the first round of 2009, playing 71 games for the Grizzlies, averaging only 2.9 points per game.

This season, he was traded to the Rockets. However, due to the lack of opportunities in the Rockets, he was relegated to the Development League for training.
