Chapter 11 Full Scholarship

After the road game against the University of Pittsburgh, the team returned to Connecticut.

At the end of the training session that day, Kahun called Tang Tian to his office alone.

"Don, you may not know the difficulty of NCAA non-scholarship players applying for full scholarships. There is such a story here." Kahon motioned him to sit down and told him the story first.

Tang Tian listened patiently, it was impossible for Kahon to be so bored that he just invited him to listen to the story.

"There is a student named Jerome, he joined the NCAA Division I team, he trained very hard, he persisted for four years, but in the end he didn't get a full scholarship, the team gave in the last game With his 30 seconds of playing time as a compliment, his story eventually became widely circulated in the NCAA as an inspirational story, but this is also an unwritten rule of the NCAA, and players without scholarships basically don't get playing time."

Tang Tian nodded after listening, Kahun was using this story to remind him, telling him how special he was.

"Of course, you are not an ordinary player, you have proved your strength, so I have been trying hard, and finally the school gave me an answer yesterday, they agreed, you will be the team's ninth full scholarship recipient ."

After a while of foreshadowing, Kahon finally told Tang Tian the news.

"Thank you coach, I will play hard and live up to your kindness." Tang Tian got up with a smile and said calmly.

Kahun, the old-school coach, just likes to take the form. He does this just because he thinks that in the future, if he grows up, don't forget his teacher.

Tang Tian didn't care too much about human nature. Anyway, if he could get a full scholarship, his goal had been achieved.

"Okay, very good." Kahun smiled happily.

"Oh yes, I also applied for a nutrition package from the school." Kahon suddenly remembered and said.

Nutrition package?

Tang Tian looked a little puzzled now.

"I know that you have been practicing physical fitness, and the method is also good, but in addition to the method, nutrition must also keep up, so as to have better results." Kahon continued.

"Thank you coach." Tang Tian really thanked him from the bottom of his heart this time.

Cajon has his old-school style, but is as fundamentally a good coach as he's known before.

Kahun just told Tang Tian the news. After a while, someone from the school came to communicate with him and asked him to go to other places to receive the scholarship.

As a well-known university in Connecticut, the University of Connecticut still invests a lot in scholarships. Take a full sports scholarship as an example, it costs 50,000 US dollars a year, which is unmatched by many other universities.

Of course, it is only relative to other Connecticut colleges and universities. Nationally, there are still quite a few schools in Connecticut. Schools like Duke and Kentucky are estimated to be twice as high.

However, with $50,000 in hand, Tang Tian was already quite enough.

Back in the dormitory, the roommates were all in class, and he then pulled out the system interface.

He glanced at his kryptonite value.

$50,600.

50,000 is the money he just received a full scholarship, and 600 is his salary as a caddie.

Because he has become a member of the school team and received a scholarship, 600 is also his last caddie salary.

But the mantissa doesn't matter, it's the big end that matters.

The $50,000 kryptonite value is enough for him to make a wave of kryptonite in the mall, and directly change to a white skill.

Compared with other levels, white skills are the least and weakest, but when he first saw the system, he actually already made a decision.

Among these white skills, the king of jumping (James White) is the most useless, not to mention in the NCAA, it is estimated that it is not easy to use in the lower leagues, and it can be played during exhibition games. As for diving The actor (Varejao) and the free throw king (Calderon) are also temporarily unavailable.

In fact, he already had a goal.

Open 3-pointer (Novak): The skill of the three-point marksman Novak, he can make the owner's open 3-point shooting rate reach 97%, but in the case of confrontation, the shooting rate will plummet to less than 30% , and as the physical fitness decreases, the vacant hit rate will also decrease from 97% to 50%.

This is a very strange skill, and it matches Novak's ability exactly.

Novak's most accurate season, 3-point shooting reached 75%, even in his entire career, 3-point shooting is more than 43%!

This is a pretty scary statistic. You must know that many top three-point shooters have never exceeded this number in a single season in their careers.

In an NBA-level game, after 40 percent you're an absolute marksman.

But it is such a shooter who is wandering almost all the time in the NBA, because he can't do anything but shoot, he has no defense, no confrontation, no passing, except for the opportunities his teammates give him through tactics, he even Not even the ability to move independently.

To put it bluntly, this is a machine that can only shoot, and can only shoot from the spot.

But for Tang Tian, ​​it was enough.

What he has right now is exactly what Novak lacks the most, defense.

With defense, and this near-missing open shot, he'll be able to stand his ground in the NCAA.

Although Kangda recently ushered in a wave of three consecutive victories, he has also gradually begun to be targeted by his opponents, and there are often cases of being shorted in the game.

This is also a completely normal situation. At the beginning, the opponent does not know your ability and naturally dare not do it. However, as your playing time increases and your reputation increases, your opponent will definitely study you and then target you.

For example, if you look at your statistics after the game, there are defensive steals and rebounds, but the score is always 0. This is definitely not normal!

If it’s not normal, you will try it. After trying it, you find that you really can’t shoot, or you can’t shoot at all. Then the short will naturally appear.

Therefore, this vacant three-point exchange is definitely the most effective.

And for Tang Tian, ​​there is a very important point. Unlike the NBA, players can make money through endorsements and advertisements. In the NCAA, players are not allowed to make money in any form, even if they are given privately by the school. There is a high probability that he will be kicked out of the league directly.

This is also something that the NCAA has always been criticized for. You must know that this league makes more money in March Crazy every year than the NBA playoffs!

But that's the rule, and it's not up to the individual.

So this 50,000 krypton gold value may be the biggest head he can get. In this case, he should choose this vacant three-pointer.

With this open three-pointer, and then training his body, he is properly a 3D player.

In the future when basketball develops faster and faster, this is quite popular, and it can even be said to be scarce.

And he is only 18 years old now, and his body will rise a little more under normal circumstances. When the time comes, the space-type 4th position and the 3D striker swinger are all possible things for him.

This wave of krypton gold is definitely a steady profit.
