Chapter 2 Is He Really Just a Caddie?

There are several types of scholarships in the United States. There are academic scholarships for both undergraduate and graduate students. The body that failed to apply before was the full scholarship for undergraduates.

However, in addition to the academic type, each school also has a certain amount of sports scholarships every year, which is relatively small.

According to official statistics, less than 2% of high school students in the United States receive athletic scholarships each year, and even for athletes in the NCAA Division I, the percentage is only 56.

And there are only 6 sports categories for NCAA Division I scholarships: men's football, men's basketball, women's basketball, women's volleyball, women's tennis and women's gymnastics.

For men's basketball, there are only 13 full scholarship places per school each year, including possible Sequoia players.

The NCAA is different from the professional league. There is no upper limit on the number of people on the roster, but basically the number of people on a team will be between 10 and 15.

It seems that basically everyone has a share, but the premise is that you have to get into the team, the NCAA first-level league, and the difficulty of entering is not much different from the NBA.

This question from Mr. Kahon was the opportunity Tang Tian had been waiting for.

Kahong didn't expect Tang Tian to answer so quickly, and was stunned unconsciously.

"I have been with the team for more than half a year, and I basically remembered the tactics. It shouldn't be a problem." Seeing the old man's reaction, Tang Tian explained.

Kahun nodded after listening, and reached out to signal the training to continue.

Ollie shook his head helplessly.

Kangda, in this turbulent period, you have to be a caddie!

Walker and Tang Tian gave a high five with a smile, and it could be seen that the relationship between the two was really good.

The confrontation in the audience was a confrontation between the main force and the substitute, Tang Tianti's Phorcis, and the center position on the substitute team's side.

He observed both lineups when he came on the court.

Walker is a third-year student, Alex Oriarch is a second-year student, and the remaining seven are all freshmen.

However, among these freshmen, there are also a few who can enter the NBA in the future, such as Shabazz Napier and Jeremy Lamb, but this is also the future, and now their faces are all immature.

The training game continued, Walker broke through Napier in the frontcourt and scored a pull-up jumper.

As the team leader, he is giving lessons to the newcomer Napier.

"Stand tight, don't give your opponent that much space to shoot!" Ollie yelled loudly at Napier on the sidelines at this time.

Kahun is old and stands on the sidelines and keeps a low profile. Most of this kind of admonishment has been handed over to his successor.

Napier was a little anxious after being yelled at, and went straight to the front court and threw Walker to the basket.

His speed and confrontation were good, and he squeezed past Walker, but his shot was relatively reluctant, and he was directly hit by a big blow from Oriarch.

Ollie spread his hands helplessly on the sidelines, this is the current strength of Kangda.

The offense from the sideline ball from the substitute team still failed to score. Walker advanced to the frontcourt and did not play Napier again. This was to save face for the younger brother.

The ball transitions into Lamb's hands.

Lamb is a standard lanky swinger. He is the most talented player in the high school enrollment of Concordia this year. He has sharp breakthroughs, stable shooting, excellent rebounding, and is also in the forefront of the NCAA defense.

If Walker leaves UConn, he will be a proper successor.

At this time, he greeted Oriaqi's pick-and-roll, and after the removal, he directly accelerated and rushed in.

His starting speed and timing were very good, and Oli was delighted to watch on the sidelines.

This looks like a bit of hope.

But immediately, his expression changed.

Because Lamb was forced to stop by Tang Tian after his first step.

Tang Tian appeared on Lamb's breakthrough route just right, and then completely blocked his breakthrough route.

Ollie's brows furrowed, and Lamb was actually blocked by a caddie.

This group of newcomers to the team today are completely out of shape!

But at this time, Kahun was a bright spot.

Tang Tian's prediction was accurate, and his defensive moves were also in place. It seems that he was not nonsense when he said that he was familiar with the team's tactics.

Lamb was already ready to layup, but he was surprised to see Tang Tian appear, but he didn't panic. After a dribble under his crotch, he widened the distance between him and Tang Tian, ​​and then a change of direction accelerated to prepare to pass.

But what he didn't expect was that Tang Tian appeared on his breakthrough route again!

"Huh?" This time Ollie also focused his attention on Tang Tian.

It is a coincidence that a breakthrough is not in the past, but it is not necessarily the case of two.

Lamb isn't his first day on the team, and Ollie's ability is clear.

This Tang Tian looks like something!

Lamb frowned.

The coach and assistant coach were watching from the sidelines, and he didn't pass a caddie twice in a row.

He is different from Walker. He has not been on the team for a long time, and his relationship with Tang Tian is not that good.

Another change of direction, this time he increased the magnitude.

"Snapped!"

But at this moment, Tang Tian suddenly shot and took the ball from his hand!

Ollie's eyes widened.

Lamb was stolen!

Stealed by a caddie from Tang Tian!

The other players on the field didn't react immediately.

Tang Tian immediately gave the ball to Napier after stealing, and the latter made a one-stop layup in the frontcourt.

"How did you do it?" Only then did the teammates on the substitute team shout at Tang Tian.

"Luck." Tang Tian said relatively low-key.

He had to be on the team if he wanted to get a scholarship, and he didn't want to get into trouble with Lamb.

He thought so, but Lamb didn't think so.

Before he came to Kangda, he was also a top-notch player among high school students in the country. Even when he arrived at Kangda, he directly entered the main team. It was really hard to face things like being stolen by a caddie.

Walker dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Lamb took the initiative to reach for the ball.

In front of him, he was careless. He must play this ball seriously and pick up the face that fell on the ground.

Change direction, double change direction, accelerate, decelerate, and change direction again.

Lamb used a series of technical movements quite skillfully, but Tang Tian was stunned that he was not overtaken by him.

"It's interesting." Kahon said with a rare smile at this time.

It wasn't the first day that he knew Tang Tian. Speaking of which, he knew Tang Tian about the same time as Walker, but he didn't expect Tang Tian to have such a strong individual defense ability, which really surprised him and was a little surprised.

Lamb couldn't get past it, turned around and chose to fight with his back, leaning on him and then suddenly turning around.

"Snapped!"

The Lamb man turned and the ball was taken away by Tang Tian.

again!

Lamb was once again stolen by Tang Tian!

And it was a steal the moment Lamb turned around.

Clean, beautiful and impeccable.

Ollie's eyes narrowed.

Is this...really just a caddie?
