The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 34 Draft Night
Time came to June 6 in a blink of an eye, and there were less than 20 days left before the 2009 NBA Draft.

"Kayce, tomorrow's air ticket has been booked for you. Can you arrange a hotel for me?" Chapman has been helping Li Ze run the draft for a while, and now it is completely done.

"There's no need for a hotel. Britney should pick me up to live with her. Are you sure the Clippers will choose Griffin?" Li Ze asked curiously.

"Of course, this is the news that I spent a lot of money to inquire about. It is said that Dunleavy and the general manager had a quarrel because of this matter. In the end, the boss came forward and directly finalized Griffin."

Chapman proudly talked about his inside information.

"Old Dunleavy is a good man. To be honest, I really like life in Los Angeles. Is there any news from the Grizzlies?" Li Ze sighed and asked.

"It's hard to say, but they may take Thabeet, or they may take you, but Presti called me, even if the Grizzlies choose you, he can handle it."

Hearing this, Li Ze also knew it in his heart. Basically, the matter is settled like this, and the Thunder will choose him!
"That's how it is. I've worked hard on you during this time, and I think I'll have to ask you to look over the contract." Li Ze thanked his agent, after all, this is a friendly service.

"It's a small matter. I have professionals here, and your rookie contract should not be complicated. There is a high probability that you will sign a 3+1. Don't forget to record your single with Big Machine Records in New York!"

Chapman was afraid that Li Ze would dote on him again, so he hurriedly reminded him.

"Don't worry, Britney cares more about Britney than you, and I will never forget it this time." Li Ze waved his hand, ready to continue reading in the library and enjoy his comfortable campus life.

When Li Ze arrived in New York the next day, it was James Harden who came to pick him up, along with his good brother DeRozan.

"Kayce, you're finally here. Without you, we haven't had any fun these days!" Harden warmly welcomed Li Ze's arrival.

Li Ze stepped forward to bump fists with the two of them. Today is the day for him to get together with his superficial brothers.

"Didn't that guy Griffin take you out to play? He's no stranger to New York!" Li Ze couldn't believe that these guys stayed in the hotel every day.

"That guy only likes white girls, and he can't get high when going out with him." Harden complained to Li Ze about Griffin's taste.

"Okay, I'll lead the way tonight. Considering Stephen Curry's baby face, I'll take you to a private venue. Don't worry, your favorite hot girl is enough!"

James - big ass lover - Harden said that Li Ze is his good brother, DeRozan looked at Harden who kept losing his integrity, and was speechless for a while.

The nightlife in the Big Apple City is colorful, Li Zelai's place is opened by a partner of the Dutton family, and he has super VIP treatment here.

On the surface, the brothers have completely relaxed after coming here, holding the wine is a ton.

"Stephen, have you negotiated with New York? Don't expect any surprises tomorrow." Li Ze looked at Curry, who was drinking with his head down, and asked about the draft.

"No problem, New York will definitely choose me, and my wishes have always been clear, and there will be no accidents."

Curry replied with a smile, his father has been helping him with the activity, and he has also released his willingness to watch himself, basically everyone will give some face, after all, he is not the first pick.

"That's good. Next time you come to New York, this will be your home game. You have to treat us well!" Li Ze immediately raised his glass, signaling everyone to do something for Curry.

"I'm supposed to go to Los Angeles. My agent has already informed me. Unfortunately, Kayce, you won't be there anymore. You won't be able to get excited at all!"

Griffin held a white girl in his arms, raised his glass and said to Li Ze.

"Los Angeles is a good place, but there are a lot of old guys in the Clippers locker room, you should pay attention to it yourself!" Li Ze instructed, then clinked glasses with Griffin.

"Okay, guys, let's not discuss those things anymore, it's time to have fun, let's get up together!" Harden was a little dazed from drinking, and started screaming with his arms around a big ass girl.

Tonight was the last indulgence, even DeRozan sang and danced along, and Li Ze and his superficial brothers went straight to dawn.

When Li Ze woke up in Britney's house, it was already the afternoon of the second day. After rubbing his swollen head, he slowly got up and began to observe the inner room.

"Good guy, the blond sweet girl is indeed a little rich woman, and it's too close to Central Park!" Li Ze was a little tangled in his heart, feeling that he was developing in the direction of Ruanfanwang.

"Are you awake? I was almost exhausted yesterday. Why did you drink so much?" Britney came to Li Ze in loose pajamas.

"I promise this is the last time. The house is amazing, and the night view must be beautiful!" Li Ze hurriedly changed the subject.

"Hee hee, I actually prepared a little surprise for you. I redesigned the bathroom. Would you like to go and have a look together?" The blond sweet girl hooked her finger at Li Ze.

"Of course, Your Highness, I can't wait." Li Ze hugged Britney and walked slowly to the bathroom.

Ball control skills can't just be practiced with big balls, small balls have to be practiced, and it was another high-intensity confrontation. In the end, Li Ze ended the game refreshed. The blonde sweet girl had to practice her confrontation, and her physical fitness was her shortcoming. .

On June 6th, Li Ze received his family members, and everyone from the Dutton family came today.

"I miss you so much, Li, Joanna, how are you doing at home? Every time I call, you say it's okay!" Li Ze stepped forward to hug his adoptive parents.

"Everything is fine at home. The Indian reservation is still the old way. I will deal with them." Lee Dutton is still the tough old guy who doesn't know what compromise is.

"Don't listen to him, it's not that serious at all. Daniel's real estate company has already made concessions, and the reservation will eventually be reconciled. Let's not talk about these things. Congratulations, Kayce, you are really our pride!"

Li Ze saw that Joanna didn't want to say more, so he changed the topic along the way. He knew that he couldn't help, so he could only keep his kindness in his heart.

"Jamie is our pride, Attorney General, you will definitely win the election!" Li Ze immediately praised his brother.

"Haha, Roy is the pillar of the family, Kayce, congratulations, I always thought you would take the road of music!" Jamie shrugged, and immediately turned the topic to Roy.

"Okay, Beth just came back from London, let's go home first, and then talk slowly." Roy is the most stable child in the Dutton family, and he will take care of everyone's emotions.

"Let's go, Kayce, let's go eat first, we're all starving!" Beth immediately gave Li Ze a look, signaling to discuss family matters later.

In the evening, Roy, Jamie, and Beth told each other what happened at home in detail, and Li Ze suffered from insomnia that night.

"It seems that the music plan must be planned in advance, and the money ability can solve the problem!"

On June 6th, Li Ze relied on the B-level functional drink of Dream Space, and he was resurrected with full blood. He was still full of energy. The Dutton family had changed into formal clothes. Today is the talent show. Waiting for the results of the draft.

"Are you nervous? You don't have to worry about family matters. The Manchester United club has already started to make money, and our funds are fine now!" Beth walked to Li Ze and said softly.

"It's nothing to be nervous about. The results of the draft have already come out. In fact, I have some small plans. I can relieve part of the financial pressure in two years." Li Ze first glanced at Joanna before explaining to Beth.

"Do your own thing first. Annie and Britney should be here soon. I'll pick them up for you first." Beth patted Li Ze on the shoulder, turned and left.

New York, Madison Square Garden. Many Knicks fans came to the scene today. Of course, there were also many reporters on the scene. How can I say that the NBA can be regarded as a small hot spot, and what the media people do is to follow the hot spot.

"Everyone in your family is in such a good shape, it looks very oppressive." Britney whispered to Beth quietly.

"I think it's okay, why, you are more nervous than Kayce today?" Beth teased the blonde sweet girl, who immediately gave her a white look.

Annie and Joanna were chatting together, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Li Ze silently observed the situation on the scene, and when he saw the surface brother coming in, he went over to say hello.

When David Stern walked into the main stage, the scene suddenly became noisy, and Li Ze also saw the Chinese media at this time.

The broadcaster continued to show Griffin, Thabeet, and Li Ze three people. These three people are the most popular candidates for the first pick!
After David Stern gave a brief speech, the staff handed over the envelope to him, and Li Ze found that Griffin was a little nervous now.

Stern opened the envelope methodically and read directly into the microphone:

"The first pick in the first round of the 2009 NBA Draft, the Los Angeles Clippers selected forward Blake Griffin from the University of Ohlahoma."

Griffin breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his family immediately, and took a group photo on stage.

Stern is optimistic about Griffin, after all, it is easier to attract the audience with a strong style of play.

"With the second pick in the first round of the 2009 NBA draft, the Memphis Grizzlies selected center Hashim Thabeet from the University of Connecticut."

Li Ze breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to go to Memphis.

"The third overall pick in the first round of the 2009 NBA draft, the Oklahoma City Thunder selected forward Kayce-Li from UCLA."

"Fortunately, nothing went wrong!"

Li Ze felt relieved, first hugged his family, then waved to his superficial brothers, and finally walked onto the stage.

Li Ze, wearing a hat, smiled and took a photo with President Stern. His NBA basketball career officially started at this moment!
