In the resting area of the Dongguan professional team.
"What are you guys doing?"
Head coach Li Hetong, his face filled with anger, pointed at Lin Jianghua and Wang Feng. Wu Chunjian and Song Hui, along with Zhang Qingshan and the others, were subjected to a torrent of scolding: "Do you think these tactics are meaningful? Look at your scores, still stuck at 56 points."
"But look at the Huadu team. Ever since that Wan Yunting came in as a substitute for Luo Zhixiang, not only have they overtaken you, but they're now at 98 points, a full 42 points ahead. With only ten minutes left in the game, tell me, how can this game be played? Tell me how!"
Facing the coach's tirade, Lin Jianghua and Wang Feng exchanged glances. They hadn't scored a single point against that Wan Yunting throughout the entire game, being completely suppressed by him alone. With his flashy scoring, their understanding of the game was completely refreshed.
Especially Wan Yunting's incredible vertical leap and his 100% shooting accuracy. Lin Jianghua and the others felt that the player's strength was in no way inferior to the strongest players in the national team, perhaps even surpassing popular foreign basketball stars!
"Coach, it's not that we wanted to do this, it's just that that guy is too formidable. We're no match for him."
Wu Chunjian began to complain, "As soon as they get the ball, they pass it to Wan Yunting. That guy's shooting is like it's calculated by a computer. He can make shots from mid-court with a simple throw. And his vertical leap, coupled with his agility in breaking through defenses, can only be described as terrifyingly superb."
"Sigh..."
The other players also sighed. Facing the terrifying monster that was Wan Yunting, they couldn't even touch the ball before it was snatched away. Since he came onto the court, the Dongguan professional team's score had been frozen at 56 points. How could they possibly bridge such a gap?
"Even so, you still can't resort to those tactics."
Li Hetong pointed at Lin Jianghua and the others, angrily reprimanding, "If you're not as skilled, then admit it. Play the game honorably. Using these underhanded tactics will only make us a laughingstock to all the spectators here. Do you understand?"
"Yes, coach. I was wrong. It was my idea alone," Wang Feng immediately apologized.
Lin Jianghua glanced at him, wanting to speak up and resolve the issue, but Li Hetong waved his hand dismissively and said irritably, "Don't say any more useless things. Even if we lose, we have to finish the game. Then pack up and go home. Don't embarrass yourselves here anymore."
After speaking, Li Hetong turned and angrily returned to his seat. He strictly opposed Wang Feng's malicious act of deliberately bumping into Wan Yunting on the court. After all, this was a game against their own people, and even against foreign opponents, such things should not happen.
This was not the custom of playing in South Korea, so Li Hetong insisted on resisting such base behavior.
*Beep...*
The referee blew the whistle, and the game resumed.
Wan Yunting and the Zhou Mian team members, as well as Lin Jianghua and Wang Feng's team members, all players stepped onto the court. Only the last ten minutes of the game remained!
Wan Yunting pointed at the scoreboard and smiled at Lin Jianghua, "Do you need us to go easy on you?"
Lin Jianghua put his hands on his hips, his eyes wide, and looked down at Wan Yunting with firm resolve, coldly snorting, "Wan Yunting, who are you looking down on? I admit you're good, but we're not sore losers."
Wan Yunting nodded with a smile and said, "That's the spirit. You guys play well for the next ten minutes."
"Just don't hold back,"
Lin Jianghua, out of his last shred of dignity, shouted at Wan Yunting, then turned to let his teammates take the tip-off. The game continued.
However, in these final ten minutes, Wan Yunting did not play as fiercely as before, not wanting the Dongguan professional team to lose too embarrassingly.
So, during these ten minutes, Lin Jianghua and the others played with renewed vigor, striving to score and increase their points. But even so, how many points could they score in ten minutes?
In the end, their score reached 89 points, but Wan Yunting's team had already reached 113 points.
*Beep...!*
A loud whistle sounded. The referee announced the end of the game. The Huadu team won this match with 113 points. Wan Yunting alone scored 62 points. His performance tonight had shocked the entire audience.
This live broadcast game was also streamed on the Douyin platform. The peak viewership reached tens of millions, which was unbelievable to the broadcasters. This was truly creating history.
In an instant, the game between the Huadu professional team, with Wan Yunting, and the Dongguan professional team that night became a sensation on Douyin. Especially Wan Yunting's playing style, his terrifying vertical leap, and his flashy dunking methods. Many netizens on Douyin exclaimed that he was comparable to top NBA stars from overseas, and perhaps even they couldn't perform dunks like Wan Yunting's.
Immediately, Wan Yunting became popular on the Douyin platform again. However, he himself naturally didn't care about these things. After the game, the players from both sides shook hands. Although Lin Jianghua and Wang Feng outwardly maintained a tough attitude, their hearts were completely conquered by Wan Yunting's terrifying strength.
Lin Jianghua, as the core player of the Dongguan professional team, had played for more than ten years and had competed with foreign players many times, but he had never encountered an opponent with such terrifying strength as Wan Yunting.
Therefore, he was truly convinced.
"Old Feng, tell me, where did you find such an awesome foreign aid player?" Li Hetong asked Feng Biao enviously and jealously as they shook hands.
"Haha, I met him by chance. I had to beg him to join our team as a foreign aid player," Feng Biao said with a proud smile.
"Damn it, I can guarantee that he will become the second Yao Ming in our national basketball scene!"
Li Hetong seemed somewhat excited. He wasn't angry about losing the game tonight.
On the contrary, as a basketball coach, encountering such a formidable player like Wan Yunting tonight made him ecstatic.
What did this represent? This represented that in the future, Wan Yunting could very likely represent the country and compete against top foreign basketball players!
By comparing Wan Yunting to the second Yao Ming, Li Hetong was giving him the highest praise!
"Wan Yunting, right?"
When Li Hetong shook hands with Wan Yunting, he said with a face full of relief and a smile, "Keep playing, and I believe that one day you will stand on the highest basketball court in the world and bring glory to our country!"
Facing the high praise from the head coach of the Dongguan professional team, Wan Yunting smiled humbly, "Coach Li, you flatter me. I just play basketball occasionally."
"What you say is a bit too humble,"
Li Hetong didn't know what to say.
"Old Li, let's grab a drink at the barbecue restaurant next door tonight."
Feng Biao invited him, and Li Hetong, wanting to get to know Wan Yunting better, readily agreed.
At this time, the game had ended, and many audience members were leaving. However, many fans had not left, with some even running down to ask for photos with Wan Yunting. The scene was very lively.
Wan Yunting was encountering this situation for the first time but was very amiable, taking photos with the fans. When he returned to the resting area, he found that Guan Hongyu was gone. Jin Xiuwen said helplessly, "He said he had something to do and went back."
Seeing this, Wan Yunting didn't think much of it. He said to his second brother and Jiang Peipei, "We're going to eat barbecue later, everyone come along."
His second brother, Wan Dongming, who was holding Wan'er, said, "Third brother, we won't be going. It's getting late, and we need to take Wan'er back for a bath and to sleep."
"Alright, I might be back late tonight," Wan Yunting nodded.
His second brother and sister-in-law smiled and nodded, waved goodbye to Jiang Peipei and the others, and then left with Ye Manni following the audience...
