Chapter 3 First Arrival in Orlando

At night, after thinking about it for a long time in bed, DeWeese roughly straightened out his thoughts.

The first thing to do is to find a draft pick for the Magic. As a traveler who has a list of draft picks for the next 30 years in his mind, it is too unreasonable not to use this to give his team some benefits.

So, at breakfast the next day, DeWeese put forward his first request after officially becoming the management of the Magic team.

"Dad, I need a pick around the 20th pick, and I'm going to pick someone this year."

Thanks to the old DeWeese's unconditional doting on Michael, he will basically not refuse any request from Michael DeWeese.

"Okay, Michael, I'll arrange someone to be in charge of this matter." Old DeWeese agreed casually, and he didn't mind using a 20th pick to train his son.

"After a while, the draft will be held. Do you want to watch it? Or you should continue to rest at home."

"No, Dad, I'm ready, you must take me with you when the time comes!"

"Okay then." Old Rich secretly blamed himself for being so talkative, but he couldn't say anything about rejecting his son.

"Also, Dad, are you going back to Orlando tomorrow?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I want to go back with you, I will stay in Orlando from now on."

"Well, I just bought a villa in Orlando. You can live there in the future. I'll get someone to book a plane ticket for you. Go to Orlando with me tomorrow." Old DeWeese often flies around the United States and spends little time at home. He doesn't care where DeWeese stays. Considering that his son likes basketball, Orlando is more convenient.

The next day, Davis flew to Orlando from his home in Michigan. He couldn't wait to see what a real NBA team looked like.

The villa bought by Old DeWeese is very close to the Orlando Stadium, only about 10 minutes by car, and the environment is very good, which belongs to the kind of top-level residence that is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle.

After settling himself in, DeWeese took a random car out of the garage and had a good day in Orlando.

In his plan, his easy days would end soon.

On the morning of the third day, Davis arrived early at Orlando Arena, the home of the Magic.

While marveling at the grand scale of the real NBA arena, Davis followed the person who came to pick him up to the training ground.

He is going to come here for an NBA-level professional physical test.

After coming to the training hall, DeWeese quickly met the trainer who was waiting for him here.

"Hello, you are Michael. The boss asked me to wait for you here and give you a physical examination." The physical examination for DeWeese was the most trusted by the old DeWeese and the highest-level trainer of the Magic. "My name is Javi Davis. You can call me Javi."

DeWeese nodded, and followed Javi to the front of those professional training facilities.

"Are you ready? Let's warm up first." Javi watched as Davis pulled down his training pants and took off his top, revealing the jersey and shorts he had already prepared.

After doing warm-up exercises with Jia Wei and making sure that the whole body is active, Davis started his first physical test journey.

The first is the static body test.

"Height: 190cm, weight 85G, a little thin, but you are still in the developmental stage, wait for your height to stabilize before you consider gaining weight. Armspan is 211cm, um, pretty good wingspan. Standing height is 269cm, body fat rate is 8%, palm is 24cm, perfect, it is a perfect static physical test result, and I can't wait to see your dynamic physical test."He has not seen this level of static talent for a long time.

During the dynamic physical examination, Jiawei's mouth opened wider and wider.

“原地起跳95CM，助跑起跳108CM，84公斤卧推13次，禁区折返跑10.77秒，3/4场冲刺3.02秒。你是怪物吗？”

To be honest, DeWeese did not expect the data of this body to be so good. According to the memory in his mind, Michael used to be at the level of an ordinary high school star player, and there is a long way to go before the NBA. However, after he crossed over, he obviously felt that this body has been significantly enhanced. It has the feeling of when he was not injured in his previous life. Simply put, the advantages of the two bodies are combined together.

"Next, let's test our shooting ability." Jarvie couldn't wait to drag Davis to the court, ready to test Davis' shooting ability.

Shooting is what DeWeese in his previous life was most proud of. Wang Hao in his previous life was known as the existence of Curry, and the test at home also made him sure that he brought over the touch from his previous life.

Confidence slowly, he first stood at the college three-pointer and shot 50 college-level three-pointers.

"Forty-five out of 50. This shooting percentage is okay without defense. Let's try the NBA's three-point line." Javi said to Michael with satisfaction.

The three-point line in the NBA is a bit longer than the three-point line in college, and Davis didn't try it much in his previous life.

In the final result, from the three-point line at the NBA level, Davis made only 50 of 40 shots.

DeWeese was not satisfied with his three-point shooting, but surprisingly, Javi was very satisfied. He believed that DeWeese's three-point shooting ability had reached the NBA level.

Then there's the mid-range shot, 10 at each of the five spots, catch-and-shoot.Jarvie's request was to shoot the ball as soon as he received his pass. Davis was a little uncomfortable at first, but after gradually adapting, his shooting percentage gradually increased.

The final score was 50 out of 42.
"This score, on the outside, is barely a pass." Jarvie said to Davis. "But now three-pointers are not the mainstream in the NBA. If you want to have a good prospect in the NBA, you still need to strengthen your ability in mid-range shots. After all, only breakthroughs and three-pointers are not enough. Mid-range shots are king."

Davis nodded. He understood that although the three-point shot is the general trend in the future, but now because of the strictest hand-check rule in history, the three-point shot or outside players are very restricted, and outside players tend to go to the basket to solve the battle.Therefore, most of the players with outstanding three-point shooting ability in the NBA are fixed-point shooters. The overall three-point shooting percentage is still at a relatively low level.

However, in DeWeese's plan, the three-point shooting ability must be developed.Not to mention anything else, after a few seasons, the three-point shooting ability will come into play.

The final dribbling test also made Javi very excited. DeWeese, who inherited the experience of his previous life, has very solid dribbling skills. In Jawi's words, his ball-handling ability has reached the level of the NBA.

"Very well, Michael, with your talent, there is absolutely no problem entering the NBA in the future. Now, you are in the final stage of physical development. I suggest that you focus on dribbling and shooting training now, and increase strength training after you stop developing."

Javi gave Davis a lot of pertinent suggestions, and Davis nodded after listening.
