Wang Yi's signing of a sky-high contract shocked the world.
After all, this is the highest-priced contract in history.
Even the greatest sports stars: Jordan, Pele, Messi... they have never signed such a huge contract.
No matter how big their contract is, it's still in the tens of millions per year.
Wang Yi, on the other hand, counts "hundred million".
These are basically two concepts.
Xiao Hua was secretly happy when he saw the fuss over Wang Yi's signing of a huge contract.
With Wang Yi's contract incident, the NBA's popularity can continue for another 10 days.
After Wang Yi signed the contract, the matter came to an end for the time being.
He plans to spend two months with his parents traveling around Europe.
Normally traveling is very tiring.
But Wang Yi and the others arranged their travel schedule very loosely.
Basically, you only need to visit one attraction a day, and if you find a place you like, stay a few more days.
Two months later, Wang Yi and the others finally returned to Sacramento.
The family lived peacefully here for a few days, but my father insisted on returning to China because the school at Huali Basketball School had already started.
The mother stayed to look after the child.
Wang Yi has devoted himself to intense training to prepare for next season.
He still gets up at 6 o'clock every morning.
Run 10 kilometers three or four times a week.
After Wang Yi signed and pledged, other teams also started their actions, renewing the contract when it was necessary, and trading when it was necessary.
Of course, the Kings also have their actions.
But the Kings didn't do much.
This is generally the case for teams that win championships.
The winning team will retain their winning lineup, so that the cooperation between the players can be more tacit next season.
So there are two key actions for the Kings this year.
One is to renew the contracts of Dog and Danny.
Both of their contracts have expired this season.
Danny naturally wants to stay, and although Doug does not get along with Wang Yi, his defense inside is irreplaceable by others.
The second move is to see if other big fish can be signed in the free market.
Now Wang Yi's salary is not within the total salary cap, so the Kings still have extra salary space to sign a superstar after signing Danny and Doc.
Thus, together with Wang Yi and Danny, they formed the Big Three.
That's right, Danny's strength can now be expressed as a giant.
The third action is to strengthen the current Kings' bench lineup.
The Kings' substitute lineup is too weak now, and they are beaten every time they play.
I always have to let the main lineup wipe the butt of the bench lineup.
…
When Wang Yi was traveling with his family, the NBA Summer League started in mid-July.
The main players of the Kings did not play in the summer league.
Mainly played by the Kings' bench.
In the end, the Guoan team played 5 games.
3 wins and 2 losses.
This result is not considered good.
Summer league is the first test for rookies.
The performance of this year's No. 2 pick in the summer league was eye-catching.
In addition to the No. 2 overall pick, there is another person whose performance makes people shine. This person is the rookie of the Kings.
Danny Russell.
This guard, who is only 1.65 meters tall, averaged 15.3 points per game in the summer league.
This statistic is not very surprising at first glance, but considering his height, it is quite outstanding to be able to score 15.6 points in an NBA where people are often over two meters tall.
And his lightning speed impressed everyone.
During the competition, he repeatedly staged the scene of riding alone, riding from the backcourt to the frontcourt.
Even those players who are famous for their speed seem a little lacking in the face of his speed.
Screw saw Danny Russell's performance and was quite satisfied.
But he also knows this is just summer league now.
It's just some small soldiers and generals, and the great masters haven't come on stage yet.
By the time the real preseason games begin, when the big players show off their skills, many rookies will be revealed, and the regular season will be the real battlefield.
Whether he can survive in the crowded NBA is still unknown.
But the good news is that after this round of preseason games, Danny's self-confidence has increased slightly.
When he plays one-on-one with Rose now, he can basically play 5:3 or 5:2.
Time came in September, and Wang Yi began to call the team's players to return to training.
The players' condition must be slowly adjusted back before the preseason starts.
Danny, Ross, Danny Jr., Bond, Turs, they're all back.
Only Doug didn't come back.
Wang Yi ignored it.
Although Doug is always at odds with Wang Yi, Wang Yi understands Doug.
Doug is definitely training at this time, and he will never let his training status drop when the season starts.
At this time, the team's substitutes were basically replaced.
Among this batch of substitutes, there is a familiar figure, Westbrook: Westbrook.
In the past two years, Westbrook has rarely appeared in people's sight.
As of now, he is 41 years old.
He no longer has the explosive power he had when he was young, let alone the speed he had when he was young.
His shooting is always spot on and off.
But he still did not retire because he still longed to win the golden O'Brien Cup in his later years.
Speaking of which, he is just as pitiful as Ross.
When he was young, he was among the top 5 players in the league.
However, due to various reasons, they were never able to win the O'Brien Cup they dreamed of.
In the end, it can only be said to be a hug.
But now, even if he is said to be a hug, Westbrook is still here.
Even though the Kings currently have 4 players on the back line.
After he arrived, it was almost difficult to get a chance to play, but he came anyway.
Just for the golden O'Brien Cup in my heart.
Another important reinforcement for the Kings is Andrew Wiggins.
This is indeed an unexpected gain.
Last season, Wiggins still averaged around 18 points per game.
No more, no less.
But for the 39-year-old veteran, this is already the second abnormality besides James.
And he seems very Buddhist in his approach to trading.
He will go wherever the team trades him.
This season the Warriors' Klay Thompson and Curry have retired.
The Warriors wanted to rebuild, so they sent Wiggins, now 40 years old, to the Kings.
Since Wang Yi's salary is not included in the team's free trade, the Kings can provide Wiggins with a salary of 28 million.
This salary is quite considerable for a 40-year-old veteran.
Of course, with Wiggins' state last season, he is definitely worth the price.

Chapter completed!
