#头条首发大赛#
Beijing time on June 28, 2024. In the past few days, Chinese fans have worked hard: the European Cup has just ended the group stage, and they can stay up a few days less. It's about to be Choi Yong-hee's "Hope Draft" trip. Yesterday, June 27, the long-awaited first round of the draft failed "as scheduled". Chinese fans are more rational and objective, and believe that Xiao Cui will not be selected in the first round, but he will have a chance in the second round.
Starting at 4 a.m. today, too many fans are waiting for the second round of the draft. appeared one after another, but there was no name of Choi Yong-hee, until the last name, everyone was disappointed: Choi Yong-hee was defeated. It was a pity to receive this news at half past six in the morning.
Is! Fans are laughing and saying: With this splashing traffic, why don't 30 teams open their eyes?
However, by 11 a.m., the peak turned! There is new good news: the first and second rounds of the draft are not selected, but there is still a summer league to play, and there are two-way contracts to fight for. As long as you have the ability, there is no endless way! Sure enough,—— Chinese fans can show their identity as "30-year pioneer fans": the Trail Blazers club gave Cui Yongxi an "Exhibit 10".
Yes, indeed, I have liked the Trail Blazers for many years, thirty years!
This "Exhibit 10" is actually just a one-year agreement, not a contract. But the agreement is a recognition, and he gave Choi Yong-hee the opportunity to continue to stay in the United States and work hard to prove himself - remember the movie "One Ball Fame 1". The protagonist went to Newcastle for the first time for a trial, and he was completely uncomfortable, and as a result, he had to be "returned". But the scouts managed to get a three-month trial period: after a long time, gold would shine, and the protagonist proved himself. And now, Choi Yong-hee has been given a similar opportunity.
On April 26 this year, after the domestic CBA league 8 into 4, Guangzhou Dragon and Lions VS Xinjiang men's basketball game, Cui Yongxi himself also played all 2 seasons of CBA! Then I went to the United States and started trying out and fighting for a draft opportunity. As of today, June 28, there are only 2 months in total, which is too short. After all, I grew up in a domestic basketball environment for a long time, and there is a disadvantage in competing with other peers who grew up in an American basketball environment. 2 months is too short! Choi Young-hee needs a little more time, which is not too much.
Now, an Exhibit 10 agreement guarantees that Choi Young-hee can finish the summer league with peace of mind, and that's a good place to start. Choi Yong-hee can use the "competition" to prove himself next. The summer league is different from the trial, it is a real game, and there are many games, so Choi Yong-hee can cherish the opportunity.
If Choi Young-hee plays well in the Summer League, then he can be upgraded from the Exhibit 10 agreement to a two-way contract! Then, it's more likely to be upgraded to an NBA contract. Now there is the first step!
Born in 2003, Choi Yong-hee is a grateful child, and after learning that he had won the Exhibit 10 agreement from the Trailblazers, he immediately thanked the fans in Chinese on his social platform. Choi Yong-hee said: Thank you for staying up late for me! There's no time to regret, it's time to take another step forward!
Subsequently, Choi Yong-hee expressed his gratitude in English on his personal overseas social platform, as well as his longing for the future.
