This year's NBA Draft kicked off in the anticipation of fans from all walks of life, and each team selected rookies suitable for their tactical system and future development through different methods such as champion signing and second-round picking, and naturally there are some interesting stories and plots, such as the performance of some well-known star descendants or Chinese players.
1. How much does the champion sign weigh?
The No. 1 pick has always been a high-profile presence in the draft, because teams with No. 1 picks will have the opportunity to select their favorite rookies in the first time, injecting new vitality and hope into the team's future development.
This year's No. 1 pick was finally selected by the Detroit Pistons, and their selection has also attracted a lot of discussion and attention from the outside world. Because in the previous speculations and predictions, this player has not become the favorite in the eyes of the outside world, and he can stand out and become the champion of this year's draft, which naturally has his own unique strength and charm.
For the Pistons, their selection this time is also a lot of embroidery work, I believe they have a clear understanding and judgment of this player, before making such an important decision. Whether this rookie can make a difference in the NBA in the future is also full of anticipation and curiosity.
Second, the father and son file added another pair?
In the long history of the previous NBA, there have been many fathers and sons, who represent different eras and different styles, leaving a deep impression on fans.
And in this draft, a father and son pair appeared again, from the Lakers and the Clippers, which undoubtedly added a touch of excitement to the entire draft.
The first is Bronny from the Lakers, as the son of LeBron James, he has naturally become the focus of heated discussions, and the Lakers did not hesitate to use their draft picks to choose the high-profile star descendant.
Bronny has an innate basketball talent, both in terms of physical fitness and on-court performance, and the opportunity to join the Lakers is undoubtedly a great boost and opportunity for his career.
On the Clippers' side, there is also a player who has attracted much attention, he is Cam Christie, who is also a rookie with great basketball talent, and he also has the aura of a current NBA player Christie.
Such a background and experience can undoubtedly play a certain role in helping and promoting Cam's career, and whether he can continue to write a legend on the NBA stage in the future also makes people full of infinite reverie about his future.
3. The growth of Chinese players
In addition to some high-profile Hall of Fame players and big deals, the performance of Chinese players in the draft has also attracted the attention of many domestic fans.
At this year's draft, many Chinese players participated in the trial and selection process, and with their own strength and hard work, they successfully entered the attention of some teams and became the object of much attention.
For example, Cui Yongxi, a Chinese player, showed excellent basketball talent and game skills during the trial process, and was favored and affirmed by some teams, but unfortunately the final draft result was not as he expected.
Although he was not selected by the NBA team, Choi Yong-hee was not discouraged by this, on the contrary, he said that he would use this result as his motivation to work harder to improve himself and strive for better performance and opportunities in the future.
For Chinese players, being able to step onto the NBA stage is undoubtedly a dream come true experience and glory, through their efforts and performance, they can also win more attention and respect for Chinese basketball on the international stage, and I believe that there will be more and more Chinese players in the future who can shine on the NBA arena.
Fourth, behind the transaction events
In addition to the selection of rookies by various teams through draft picks, there are also many high-profile trade events during the draft conference, and these transactions often hide the intentions and plans of each team.
For example, the trade between the Nuggets and the Hornets, the Nuggets sent Reggie Jackson to the Hornets and paid three future unprotected second-round picks, although this operation seems a bit frugal, but it may contain a larger plan and planning of the Nuggets.
The operation of the Kings during the draft has also attracted much attention from the outside world, and they successfully obtained Jalen McDaniels from the Raptors through a trade, although it will cost a certain price, but it will help the overall strength of the Kings team.
Through these trade events, we can not only see the conscious reinforcements and adjustments of each team in the offseason, but also feel their confidence and determination in the future development, and I believe that in the next games, the players involved in these transactions will have more performances and surprises.
