The Fifth Point Guard

On May 7, the Chicago training camp began.

The three-day training camp gave many players who want to show their skills a stage to fully display.

Especially those players who have not yet had the opportunity to try out individually.

Or certain players who want to improve their draft position.

Because more than half of the NBA teams will send scouts to investigate.

This is a very good performance opportunity.

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

Shen Tong stood in the hall, looking up at the big screen hanging in the air.

Trials for the lottery hopefuls were showing on television.

Arenas' workouts with the Atlanta Hawks and Golden State Warriors were very successful.

The owners and coaches of the two teams are full of praise for Arenas' performance.

Atlanta's media even said that the Eagles have decided to win Arenas with the No. 3 pick.

Jefferson is also doing well.

"Richard is a fantastic player, on and off the pitch, he shows his maturity, low key, humble, potential. He is the type of player that every manager would love. "The general manager of the Clippers said to the media after Jefferson's trial training.

But the show also said that the Clippers are still more inclined to choose the high school player Tyson Chandler who led Dominguez High School's three-game winning streak. With 26 points, 13 rebounds and 7 blocks, his performance was quite terrifying.

Even the Washington Wizards, who hold the No. 1 pick, have shown strong interest in Chandler.

According to media analysis, Jefferson is likely to be won by the No. 7 Nets and go to New Jersey.

Loren Woods' performance in the trial training seems to be less than satisfactory.

The champion center, who was originally given high hopes, was unanimously looked down upon by the media and scouts because of his thin body, thinking that he would be selected in the middle of the second round.

Holding the 17th pick in the second round, the Minnesota Timberwolves expressed strong interest in Woods.

"Kevin Garnett needs an inside helper, and Loren is a good supplement. Who says being thin means lacking confrontation? Kevin was also very thin when he first arrived. Our trainers will take good care of him." Timberwolves General Manager expressed his opinion.

Seeing that the three teammates on the same team have basically locked up a draft spot, Shen Tong is happy for them.

Well done.

Now it's time to see yourself!

I checked the time, it's almost there.

Shen Tong retracted his gaze, tightened his backpack, and began to look for his boarding gate.

"Boom"

"Yeah~~"

Shen Tong felt as if he had bumped into something.

look down.

A young girl was sitting on the smooth marble floor, looking at herself with her mouth pouted, looking very aggrieved.

After reacting, Shen Tong hurriedly stepped forward to help the girl up.

"I'm sorry, I was busy looking for the boarding gate, and I didn't see you. I'm very sorry." Shen Tong apologized to the little girl, and pulled her up from the ground easily.

The little girl who stood up just reached Shen Tong's chest.

Very petite.

Although he is not very old, his appearance is already quite outstanding.

A typical western beauty embryo.

"It's okay." The little girl waved her hands generously.

on the plane.

"Hello, can you help me put my luggage down?" came a pleasant voice.

Shen Tong looked up.

The other party was also taken aback.

What a coincidence!

The tall and tall Shentong easily helped the little beauty put her luggage into the suitcase.

The two turned out to be adjacent seats.

"I'm very sorry about what happened just now."

"Hey, I've forgotten all the little things." After finishing speaking, the little beauty stretched out a tender little hand and said, "My name is Avril."

"Shen Tong." Shen Tong replied quickly.

soft as bones

"You are so energetic." Avril who shook hands with Shen Tong said with a smile, "You are still so tall, could it be that you are a basketball player?"

Shen Tong nodded with a smile, "That's right."

Avril Lavigne asked again: "Are you going to Chicago?"

"There is a basketball training camp over there, and I will go there to participate in training."

"Chicago training camp? I've heard of it too. It's very famous. It seems that all the basketball players who go there to train are basketball players participating in the NBA draft. Could it be?" Avril Lavigne stared at Shen Tong with wide eyes.

Shen Tong nodded.

Shen Tong looked embarrassed at the other party's big bright eyes.

"It's amazing, that's the highest hall of basketball, tsk tsk tsk." Avril Lavigne said with an envious look.

The plane starts to take off.

some bumps

With a burst of shaking, Avril's hand accidentally rested on Shen Tong's.

STO: "."⊙▽⊙"

The plane was slowly and steadily, and Avril Lavigne noticed the abnormality, and quickly withdrew her hand.

Shen Tong tried to break the embarrassment, and asked, "Avril, what are you doing in Chicago?"

Hearing Shen Tong's question, Avril Lavigne smiled and replied: "I'm here to find my music dream."

"one person?"

"Ok."

"How old are you this year?"

"17 years old."

"Where did it come from?"

"Canada."

"."

Avril Lavigne's words reminded Shen Tong of those musicians in Beidiao, China, who came to Beijing to look for opportunities with their own musical dreams in mind. A few of them succeeded, but most of them failed.

The failed Beipiao returned to his hometown, and another batch of Beipiao entered Beijing with their dreams in mind, and the cycle went on and on.

This Avril Lavigne is even more powerful, she directly pursues her dream across the country, at such a young age, she has such courage.

But the road of music is not destined to be smooth.

Perhaps seeing Shen Tong's sympathetic expression, Avril said with a smile: "I know what you are thinking, but it is worthwhile to pursue your dreams. Even if I don't succeed, I have worked hard and struggled, and I will not regret it .”

What a girl!

Seeing Avril Lavigne's determined expression, Shen Tong said sincerely: "Avril Lavigne, you are a wonderful girl, you will definitely succeed!"

Avril smiled sweetly, and said: "Shen, I also wish you a good performance in the training camp!"

The flight time seems to be short.

While the two young people were talking and laughing, the plane arrived in Chicago.

"Shen, if I succeed, I will definitely invite you to my concert!" Avril Lavigne said in a serious tone.

"No problem, if I can enter the NBA, I will definitely give you the front row ticket." Shen Tong also boasted.

"It's a deal!"

"Never regret it!"

"come on."

"The same to you."

After adding AIM to each other, the two parted at the airport.

Shen Tong turned around with a strange feeling.

This was the first time that Shentong had such a smooth and happy chat with a member of the opposite sex.

And I always feel that this little girl seems to have seen it somewhere.

Or heard of it?

Shen Tong really couldn't remember.

wave.

The taxi stops.

"Hello, this address."

The car was driving very fast, and the scenery on both sides kept going backwards.

Soon, Shentong arrived.

With a backpack on his back, holding a letter of introduction from the University of Arizona, with full confidence and firm determination, and with Avril Lavigne's blessing, he walked to the gate of the Chicago training camp.
