Seeing the newspapers full of news about himself, Wayne himself felt quite surprised.

Although he is the Big 12 Conference regular season MVP, Wayne still knows that there are many more famous college stars than himself in the March Madness game.

Emeka Okafor, Deron Williams, Luol Deng, Ben Gordon... these guys are all the pride of the NCAA.

But after the first round, there was very limited coverage about them.

The sports pages of most newspapers are dominated by two players.

One is Wayne who scored an extraordinary double-double with 17 points and 11 blocks.

The other one was Sebastian Telfair, a talented point guard from Lincoln High School. In yesterday's game, he got rid of Howard and dribbled to the left corner to complete the buzzer-beating game.

During the March Madness tournament, one high school player could steal the spotlight from so many college stars, which shows how popular Telfair is.

In terms of popularity, he even beats Wayne slightly.

Even David Stern did not expect this situation, because in his plan, only Wayne should become famous today.

Yesterday afternoon, Stern mobilized all the media power and began to hype Wayne crazily, hoping that Wayne could enter the first round and that Wayne could attract the attention of Chinese fans.

But Stern was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of Telfair.

David, the tidying master, also made mistakes sometimes.

Wayne looked at the photo in the newspaper. He knew Howard who was the winner, but he really had no memory of Telfair who was the winner.

Who is this guy?

Will there be such a number one figure in the NBA in the future?

As a hardcore fan in his previous life, Wayne knew many unpopular players.

But he had never heard of Telfair.

Could this guy be a basketball player like me who suddenly traveled to this world and obtained the system?

At this time, Tony Allen, who was sharing a room with Wayne in the hotel, woke up.

After washing, he picked up a newspaper and read it, preparing to kill some time while waiting for breakfast.

Seeing that the entire sports page was full of reports about Wayne, Teacher Tony smiled from ear to ear.

"This is March Madness. You only need one win to become famous all over the United States! Winning one game in March Madness is more effective than winning the MVP in the Big 12 Conference. How does it feel to be famous? Wayne!"

"Uh... I don't feel anything yet. By the way, Tony, who is this Sebastian Telfair? Why is it so popular today?"

As soon as Wayne finished speaking, Tony Allen showed an expression of disbelief, as if to say: "How the hell could such a question come out of your mouth?"

"Telfair...that's Telfair."

"So, which Telfair is it?"

"It's the one who appeared on the cover of countless magazines with James last year, tortured everyone at the ABCD training camp with James, and was already signed by Adidas as a spokesperson when he was still in high school. He is as famous as James as the number one high school point guard.

Telfair, you really don’t know him, do you?”

"Oh, it's Telfair." Wayne pretended to understand, but in fact he didn't understand anything.

A super high school point guard as famous as James?

How come I've never heard of it before?

Putting it this way, there is only one possibility - this guy named Telfair will never be able to make it in the NBA in the future.

Because as long as it is a rotation player who has played in the league for a little longer, Wayne has not heard of it at all.

"I didn't expect that he actually killed Dwight Howard. That guy is known as a combination of Duncan and Garnett! Telfair was already hot enough, but this time it was Howard again.

It’s hard not to think about completing a decisive victory.”

"You should pay less attention to those street stall-style reports. There is no combination of Duncan and Garnett in this world." When mentioning Howard's outrageous template, Wayne's head hurts.

"Even if he is not a combination of Duncan and Garnett, his talent is explosive enough. Therefore, completing a buzzer beater on him is definitely a feat! But it doesn't matter, in my heart, you are still the most popular player today.

, Telfair also has to step aside."

Tony Allen comforted Wayne. He thought Wayne was discouraged because he was upstaged by a high school student.

But Wayne was simply curious about Telfair. Listening to Tony Allen's introduction, Telfair seemed to be quite vigorous in high school.

No wonder it can steal so much traffic during March Madness.

In the afternoon, when Wayne and the others returned to Stillwater City, the entire airport was surrounded by fans.

This is not the first time that Wayne has gone out to play away games. There have been many fans gathered at the airport when he came back from away games before, but never has the crowd been as exaggerated as today.

Fans chanted the names of Cowboys players and held up signs with the words "Welcome Home Heroes."

Among them, Wayne is almost the most popular player.

The five CCTV reporter teams who returned to Jingshui City the night before were all stunned.

This formation is simply the kind of treatment only NBA stars get!

"Don't be surprised, in Jingshui City, Xiao Wei and Tony are the biggest basketball stars!" Director Zhang looked like he was experienced, as if he was not surprised by this.

But in fact, when he came to see Wayne for the first time a few months ago, he was shocked by the popularity of college basketball.

In Boston, you can see all the citizens gathering in the North Shore Garden.

In Los Angeles, there are always people outside Staples.

At this time in Jingshui City, you can also see similar scenes.

Director Zhang raised his camera and took several photos of Wayne waving to the fans.

This young man is different from all the Chinese players who have entered the NBA before. He was already a star and famous in the United States before entering the league.

He hopes that he can truthfully convey these reports back to China so that Chinese fans can fully understand this unusual Chinese student.

Because the fans were so enthusiastic, it took Wayne and the others an hour and a half to complete the 40-minute journey from the airport to the school.

Although Jingshui City has a small population, there are usually only a few people on the streets.

But when everyone gets together, it still creates a big obstacle to traffic.

By the time Wayne and the others arrived at school, it was already lunch time.

Old Sutton originally wanted to hold a tactical meeting today, because the end of the first round means that the Cowboys' opponents in the second round have also been determined.

But when he saw that it was already getting late, he decided to let the players go back to rest first and talk about it tomorrow.

So before disbanding today, Old Sutton only said a few words to the players briefly: "Your performance yesterday made me proud, but it's not time to relax yet."

"In the next game, our opponent will be the prestigious Wake Forest University. There is no doubt that they will not be as easily defeated as the University of Washington.

So, have a good rest tonight, preferably don’t go anywhere, and be ready for the challenge!”

Because they had just won the game, everyone's morale was high. Therefore, even if the opponent was a famous college like Wake Forest, no one was afraid.

The same goes for Wayne, who doesn't even think about the players currently at Wake Forest.

No matter who he is, just do it!

After returning to the dormitory, Brother Teddy called two girls to celebrate Wayne's first victory in March Madness.

Although many American universities still do not allow men and women to live in the same room, they do allow men and women to live in the same building or even on the same floor.

Not to mention the United States, in Wayne's previous life, when he was in college, because the dormitory building on the new campus of the school had not yet been completed, he also experienced a good time when men and women lived in the same building.

The advantage of men and women living in the same building is that female students can visit the dormitory at any time.

Therefore, when Wayne opened the dormitory door and found two girls inside, he was not surprised.

After dinner, both the girl and Teddy wanted to go to the nightclub to continue celebrating, but Wayne declined because he was too tired and wanted to rest.

In the end, Wayne used the Chinese all-purpose social trick "Call me if you have anything to do", which made the girls leave reluctantly.

During March Madness, it’s best not to overextend your physical fitness.

On the surface, he looked like he didn't want to, but in fact, Wei was still a little restless in his heart.

After all, those are all young and charming female classmates...

Alas, it is really difficult for Wayne to have to face temptations of one kind or another every day.

I’ll have to make up for it when March Madness is over!

Before going to bed at night, the curious Wayne borrowed Teddy's "light notebook" that was so heavy that it could kill someone to check Chattelfield's information.

Only then did I realize that I was indeed ignorant.

Telfair's reputation in America, especially in New York, is comparable to that of a professional player.

After he and James killed everyone in the ABCD training camp last season and appeared on the covers of major magazines together, their fame became uncontrollable.

It is worth mentioning that Telfair has also announced that he will participate in this year's NBA draft, and it seems that he will embark on the same path as James.

Currently, Telfair's mock draft is at the end of the lottery.

For a high school guard who is less than 1.9 meters tall, this pick is quite incredible.

On the Internet, Wayne also saw the comments made by many celebrities after Telfair killed Howard.

Both Jay-Z and Spike Lee said they would attend Lincoln High School's next game in person to support Telfair.

Hollywood director Jonathan Hawke expressed his intention to make a documentary about Telfair.

The most exaggerated thing is that Wayne saw a quote from Isaiah Thomas.

"If Telfair and James entered the draft together, I would choose Telfair."

Wayne:???

Thomas, is this serious?

Fortunately, Bird fired Thomas decisively last year and did not give him this embarrassing opportunity.

To sum it up, Telfair, who is slightly more popular today than Wayne, is a high school basketball genius in New York, but it is very likely that he will not make a name for himself in the NBA in the future.

Of course, Wayne had no idea that this high school genius, who seemed to have nothing to do with him, was subtly exerting some influence on his draft selection...

After satisfying his curiosity, Wayne turned off the computer and prepared to end the long day of traveling.

At the same time, in the basketball gym of the Wake Forest University Demon Deacons, a 1.83-meter-tall man drew a big red cross on Wayne's profile picture in the newspaper.
