~6 min read 1,064 words

"Setting aside the 'Ancient Beast' Chamberlain."

"Su Yan is also the second player in NBA history since 'AI' Iverson in '96 to score 50+ points in his rookie season."

"The key is."

"He is also an undrafted player."

"This is too inconceivable, and too impressive."

"Third, Su Yan is also the first 50-point scorer this season."

The two commentators were full of praise for Su Yan.

On the court.

The entire Bulls team was also celebrating the victory with incomparable joy amidst the cheers of the whole arena.

This kind of victory from a counter-reversal is too fascinating, too likable, and makes people too excited and incomparably happy.

Su Yan, who had his first buzzer-beater.

He naturally felt very happy; there was no reason not to be.

At this time.

Tim Duncan walked over, came to Su Yan's side, and the two hugged in acknowledgment.

Duncan patted Su Yan on the shoulder, smiled blankly, and praised: "Congratulations on winning the game; that buzzer-beater of yours was beautiful."

"You are very excellent."

"Really."

"Don't mind your status as an undrafted player, and don't mind what others say about you; keep working hard."

"There will definitely be a place for you among the future superstars."

"Thank you! I will work hard for it."

Su Yan nodded modestly.

Duncan's line "The future is yours" allowed LeBron to become the second basketball king in NBA history and the "league's number one player" for a long time.

The time that line was said was 2007.

It was when LeBron had secured his position as the "active number one small forward" and had almost single-handedly led his team to the finals.

Personal ability + honors.

LeBron had already proven himself at that point in time, which is why Duncan said that.

Now.

Su Yan had only played 5 games in this league, and Duncan dared to say that Su Yan would become a superstar-like existence in the future.

This was also an extremely high evaluation.

For a loser, a player of dual-MVP level, to praise an opponent like this is an absolute affirmation of Su Yan's strength.

After the two chatted for a few sentences.

Duncan left.

Then ESPN reporter Marc Stein walked over with a microphone.

He interviewed Su Yan and smiled: "First of all, congratulations to Su Yan for leading the team to defeat the defending champions with a buzzer-beater."

"Additionally."

"Congratulations on becoming the youngest 50-point scorer."

"Your performance tonight was too outstanding."

"I would like to ask you, what are your feelings about tonight's '50-point night' and that super-difficult 'flat-lying fadeaway buzzer-beater' you hit at the end?!"

"Uh..."

Su Yan thought for a moment and smiled: "That buzzer-beater was obviously a fluke; I just tried my best to throw the basketball out, and left the rest to the Goddess of Luck."

"Fortunately, the Goddess of Luck responded to me."

"As for the 50-point scorer, I also had good luck; the Spurs gave me many open mid-range opportunities, and I just happened to seize them all."

"That's how I had the opportunity to get 50 points."

"Haha!"

Marc Stein laughed, "Su Yan is too modest; that's 50 points, not 5 or 15, how could it possibly be a fluke."

"Regardless."

"Finally, I still want to congratulate you for contributing a wonderful game with a perfect performance and winning the victory for the Bulls."

"I hope you can have an equally outstanding performance in the next game."

"Thank you!"

Su Yan thanked him again.

The words just now had elements of modesty.

But there were also many facts.

First, the "flat-lying fadeaway buzzer-beater," even with 【Beginner · Mid-range Throw】, the hit rate near the rim would be further improved.

However.

Under the siege of three people, the difficulty was obviously sky-high; it must be said that being able to hit such a dream-like shot.

Carried a bit of luck.

Second, Su Yan being able to score 50 points tonight really had a lot to do with the Spurs letting him shoot.

Out of the 50 points, at least 20 or so were scored using mid-range shots when he was left open or under very little interference.

Of course.

This also had to do with no one knowing he had obtained 【Beginner · Mid-range Throw】, which increased his mid-range hit rate.

But after tonight.

The next opponents, after analyzing Su Yan, would definitely not dare to continue leaving Su Yan wide open and would definitely provide defense.

Then wanting to score 50+ points again.

The difficulty would obviously increase.

In the spectator stands.

Xida's gaze remained on Su Yan, thinking about going to ask him for an autograph later.

It's just... Su Yan was always surrounded by crowds, always had people around him, and she simply had no opportunity to ask for an autograph.

After waiting for a while.

She decided to forget it.

She got up and left.

And just as she was preparing to leave, Xida saw Jordan and Pippen leaving not far away, seeing her former idols.

"Hmm?"

Xida looked at Jordan's back, frowned slightly, and had a strange feeling in her heart, "Why am I not excited?"

If it were before.

She would never have let go of such an opportunity to have close contact with a favorite star, and would definitely have gone to Jordan to ask for an autograph and a photo.

If she couldn't get one.

Just seeing him face-to-face would have been fine.

But... now she didn't have the slightest urge to ask for an autograph.

For Su Yan, Xida waited quietly for a long time, didn't get an autograph, and felt some regret and disappointment in her heart.

For Jordan, the person was right in front of her, and in a situation where she could very likely get an autograph, the result... she simply couldn't raise any interest.

This strange feeling.

Made Xida a bit unable to understand.

Back to Su Yan.

After being busy for a while, he returned to the locker room with Yao Ming, Hinrich, and others who had been waiting, to celebrate again.

Almost as soon as he arrived at the locker room.

Pippen, Chandler, and others who had returned early had each prepared a bottle of champagne, and the moment Su Yan returned, they poured it all over him to celebrate.

"Woooow~"

"Congratulations to Su Yan, the youngest 50-point scorer."

"First buzzer-beater of his career!"
