Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

Two days later, all games of the Pac-12 League regular season ended, and the top eight seats in the final standings were officially announced.

The first is the University of Arizona.

Second, University of Oregon.

Third, University of Southern California.

Fourth, Washington State University.

Fifth, University of California, Berkeley.

Sixth, University of Utah.

Seventh, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).

Eighth, Oregon State University.

These eight teams will advance to the knockout stage of the second round.

The knockout rounds of the Pac-12 League adopt a single-elimination tournament system, which is a game that determines life and death. The matchups adopt cross-match rules, that is, first vs. eighth, second vs. seventh, third vs. sixth, and fourth. vs fifth.

In the end, 8 will advance to 4, 4 will advance to 2, and the champion will be determined. The winning team will automatically qualify for the championship.

So there is only one goal for every team that enters the top eight-that is to win the Pac-12 League Championship.

For UCLa, ranking seventh means that they will face the second-place University of Oregon in the first round of the knockout round.

......

Ucla, in the training arena.

The players were talking about the knockout rounds, but the game against the University of Oregon still made the players feel like Alexander was heavy in their hearts and lacked confidence.

After all, they had played against the University of Oregon just a few days ago, and the final result was a 12-point deficit against the University of Oregon, and they missed the chance to reach sixth place.

Now that they have to face the University of Oregon again, it's hard not to worry.

"Let's not talk about this." Parker waved his hand, not wanting to talk about this topic anymore. He glanced at Zhuang Yu, who was still training not far away, and said with a smile: "Regardless of what happens in the knockout rounds, at least Zhuang Yu is definitely the big winner, taking all the top prizes. Two awards for Best Rookie and Best Sixth Man, tsk tsk..."

The words were full of envy.

Lamb was stunned for a moment and asked: "Aren't the results of the selection of Best Rookie and Best Sixth Man not yet out?"

Generally speaking, the selection of these awards will not result so quickly, because the pac-league competition is not over yet.

It will take some time.

"Idiot." Latvis knocked on Lamb, "The selection results haven't come out yet, but do you think there will be any suspense about Yizhuang's performance?"

"Oh." Lamb reacted, thinking about Zhuang Yu's performance this season, and couldn't help but nod, "That's right, with his performance this season, there won't be any suspense at all."

A group of players nodded in agreement.

As a freshman this season, Zhuang Yu can naturally compete for the "Best Rookie" award. Throughout the regular season, he averaged 17.0 points, plus 4.5 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game, far exceeding other big players. One player.

In fact, with statistics like Zhuang Yu's, he might even have a chance to compete for mvp. He may only score a little less but have a lot of rebounds and assists.

Among the freshman players in the **AC-12 League, the only one who can match Zhuang Yu in terms of statistics may be Muhammad.

This season, Muhammad relied on the fact that he was a core player and had enough possessions to score points on the court, pushing his scoring average to 18.2 points per game.

Statistically speaking, this is terrifying.

You know, in the entire Pac-12 league, the player with the highest average scoring average in the regular season is only 21.5 points per game.

Allen Kleib of the University of California, Berkeley, averaged 18.4 points per game this season, which ranks third in the Pac-12 league's scoring list.

Muhammad averaged 18.2 points per game, second only to Kleib, ranking fourth in the scoring list. In terms of scoring alone, he is undoubtedly the first among newcomers.

It's just that apart from scoring, Muhammad is lagging behind in other aspects, including his performance on the field.

In fact, Muhammad was No. 1 on the "Rookie of the Year" list for most of the regular season.

However, in the UCLAVS Oregon State University game, Muhammad did not play due to negative issues, but Zhuang Yu scored 28 points, causing the two to switch their positions on the "Best Rookie" list. Zhuang Yu became the first, and Muhammad dropped out. Got to the second.

Muhammad was abandoned later, and Zhuang Yu scored 30+ points in the next game, completely securing the first place in the "Best Rookie" list.

As for the "Best Sixth Man", there is no suspense.

Zhuang Yu averaged 17.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game, surpassing the second place on the "Best Sixth Man" list by a large margin.

Of course, Zhuang Yu was the starter in the last few games.

However, throughout the regular season, he was a substitute in most games, so it did not affect his selection as the "Best Sixth Man".

"Tsk tsk..." Drew II sighed: "Being able to win both the Best Rookie of the Year and the Best Sixth Man of the Year in his rookie season is not something that ordinary people can do."

"Zhuang is really powerful."

"In the history of the Pac-12 League, no one has ever won the Rookie of the Year and Sixth Man of the Year awards, but Zhuang is from China. This is definitely the first time."

"If you want to add this, it's not just our Pac-12 league, it's the first time in the entire NCAA history."

The players discussed with some sighs and admiration in their hearts. They all watched Zhuang Yu grow from a substitute to a sixth man, and then to the core of the team.

Ask yourself, could you do it if it were you?

impossible!

At this moment, Adams, who had been silent, suddenly said: "I think you may have overlooked one award. He may win three awards."

Everyone was stunned: "What else?"

Adams's face was twitching, and he was in a complicated mood. He didn't know what he had been through in the past few months. I was so miserable.

Facing everyone's gaze, he smiled bitterly and said: "There is also the best defensive player. Zhuang's defensive ability is also obvious to all."

this......

This is really true!

A group of players reacted. They all looked at me and me, and they all could only express admiration. It was so scary that one person won three awards!

......

Here, Zhuang Yu didn't hear the discussions of his teammates, and he didn't need to listen, because Anderson had already nagged in his ears.

To be honest, Zhuang Yu was still very excited.

It's just that he is quick and steady, and he won't show any emotions until the selection results come out, not to mention that there will be a knockout round next.

"Kyle." Zhuang Yu opened his hand and asked Anderson for the ball.

Anderson pushed with both hands and passed the ball to Zhuang Yu. Zhuang Yu glanced at the basket, then accelerated suddenly, two steps into the three-second zone, and then jumped up.

Bang!

There was a bang and he came up with a tomahawk chop.

This immediately caused a group of teammates to turn their heads and look in his direction.

Zhuang Yu glanced at his teammates and shook his head secretly. He could see that his teammates had little confidence in the next game against the University of Oregon. But he won't give up easily. Will he definitely lose if he is seventh versus second?

Not always......
