Chapter 363 First Place
At 18:30 in the evening, a black Rolls Royce parked on time at the downstairs of the hotel where Mu Chenfeng was.

This is Black Lee's exclusive car, and only special guests are allowed to take it. Today, it will carry Mu Chenfeng, Su Mengyao, and Qiu Fei to the drafting venue.

Mu Chenfeng and Qiu Fei participated in the draft in another capacity, but not as players.

The conference venue was only a 10-minute drive from the hotel. The three of them were led to the second floor, which was the VIP area. Each team had an exclusive private room for the team management to rest and chat during the draft conference.

The VIP room is divided according to the way of the Eastern and Western teams. The Miami Heat's room is located in the center of the Eastern District, facing the draft stage.

This is the room with the best location.

The three of them entered the private room. At this time, some members of the team's management team were already sitting in the private room. They were watching the draft player pool through the transparent glass window. There were densely packed rookies below. This was the session with the most draft players, and the entire space was almost full.

When Mu Chenfeng and others entered the private room, the people in the management cast strange glances at them, especially some managers from the United States, who sneered at the arrival of Mu Chenfeng and Qiu Fei, and even said extremely ironic words.

"Isn't this the undrafted pick? Why did you come to our private room?" The other party mocked. The title of undrafted pick usually only appears at the end of the draft. Some people who are not selected will be called undrafted picks. The draft has not yet started, but due to the government's ban, Mu Chenfeng and Qiu Fei have already determined that they will not be selected.

A Chinese staff member on the side made a rescue and said, "This is a distinguished guest invited by the boss."

"So what?" The other party didn't hold back at all, "Can this change their status as undrafted? Is it wrong for me to call them undrafted?"

"That's right." Outside the door, Black Lee walked in slowly, "You don't have to come to work tomorrow."

Just after reuniting with the team, the first thing Blake Lee did was to "fire" and expel the American who provoked trouble on the spot.

This American is the data analyst of the team. The role of the analyst in a team cannot be ignored. He specializes in providing big data analysis for the team. These data can help the team better train and prepare for the game, which is an important part.

However, with such an important position, Black Lee will be fired if he says he will be fired.

You know, the income in Miami is much higher than other teams.

"They are my guests. Is there a problem?" Blake Lee looked around at everyone, and everyone bowed their heads in silence, obviously frightened by his trying to make an example of others.

"Boss." The man still wanted to struggle.

Black Lee didn't show any face, and waved his hands at him, not giving him a chance.

The man had no choice but to leave the VIP box in Miami.

"Do whatever you want." Black entertained, "This is the best place to watch the draft. Today we will witness the draft at the beginning level together."

This is indeed the case for a historical draft. The quality of this draft is very high, and the average level is far higher than that of any previous draft.

"These sisters will be handed over to you." Blake Lee said, because after the reform of the current draft, it is no longer the president who announces the players selected by the team during the draft, but the team manager, boss or staff such as the manager. This will allow the team and players to interact in the first place, and the distance between each other will be further shortened.

Black is about to represent Miami in the first round of the draft. Due to the increased number of draft rounds, Miami also got the 22nd pick in the third round, the 82nd pick.

In the past month, Miami is undoubtedly the team that has gained the most. Not to mention holding the No. [-] pick, it has successfully completed the task of signing Barrett not long ago, which has added even more wings to the team. Originally, Miami's lineup has the strength to rush to the championship. This operation has made their road to the championship more stable.

People who grew up on the South Coast are always "greedy", and getting Barrett did not satisfy them. They hope that Black can bring back a supernova to Miami from the draft, and form the Big Three with Wade and Barrett. Among the three options of Oscar, William and Jackson, fans hope that the third position belongs to William, because his technical characteristics are more in line with Miami's enthusiasm and unrestrained characteristics. It became a very simple thing.

Even the team felt that Miami would take William with the No. [-] pick, so it searched from the remaining players.

"The rookies in this class are very good." The management personnel of a certain team said with emotion. In previous years, players would avoid the draft year for the draft, so as to ensure that they can have a good pick. However, everything has changed this year. The players no longer avoid but choose to get together.

"I'm afraid 90 draft spots are not enough." The person next to him joked, thinking that the three rounds of the draft are not enough to select all the players, because there are so many excellent players.

With the last 10 minutes left before the start of the draft, the management of each team is making final preparations, and some teams have already ordered exclusive jerseys for their favorite players.

Mu Chenfeng and Qiu Fei looked at the players in the middle of the field with a complete onlooker mentality, eyes full of envy. If it weren't for the government's ruthless intervention, the two of them should be sitting on the field with these players at this time, waiting for the verdict of fate together, experiencing the heartbeat that only happens once in a lifetime.

At 19:00, the draft officially began. After Stern's brief opening, Blake Lee walked onto the stage slowly, holding his first-round pick in his hand, the first pick. The selected person is the No. [-] pick in this year's draft.

The No. [-] pick who can stand out among the players in this session is well-deserved.

Blake Lee first briefly introduced some of the history of the Miami Heat and the current team situation. The history is glorious, the current lineup is extremely luxurious, and the selected players will be more easily integrated into the game.

Some players headed by William are full of expectations for Black's choice. Although ESPN gave a simulation ranking before, it does not represent the team's final choice. The team will choose according to the team's needs, so anyone has a chance to be selected.

"First round, No. [-] pick, the Miami Heat drafted the player"

Blake Lee announces Miami's draft results.
