The eighteenth place in the first round were selected. Although Lin Han really thought that he might be selected in the first round, he also thought that after losing his inside goal, the Jazz might really use the team's No. 18 draft pick to choose him.

But even so, this still makes Lin Han feel incredible. You know, Lin Han is just a 19-year-old player. According to Lin Han, this year's popular rookie is the youngest. At least among the eighteen rookies selected in the front, in addition to Lin Han, this year's second-tier Sean Bradley is a freshman in the first year of college.

Although the NBA now allows high school students to enter the NBA, because the NBA currently lacks successful cases of high school students, the NBA now is not mainstream, and even young college players like freshmen are not mainstream. Even the most talented players, such as Hardaway and Weber, are all sophomore or juniors. This does not mean that super geniuses like Hardaway and Weber will participate in the draft one or two years earlier. In fact, even if Weber and Hardaway participated in the draft last year, these two will be rookies in the lottery zone.

However, in the current American basketball world, neither players nor the NBA's management really want to enter. A 19-year-old player like Lin Han is definitely an outlier this year. Moreover, Lin Han is also different from this year's second-tier Sean Bradley. He is still an outside player. Although the success of Jordan and the Magic have made the NBA dominate the outside players in the past ten years, in the NBA's draft, outside players are still not as good as inside players.

So this made Lin Han even more incredible. The Jazz actually used the No. 18 draft pick to choose a 19-year-old defender player like him. So, although she was mentally prepared, Lin Han still stopped after watching David Stern announce on TV that he was selected by the Jazz.

At this time, Lin Yu, who was leaning against Lin Han, suddenly became dumbfounded when she looked at her brother's name on TV. She felt a little incredible, as if her brother hadn't lie to her before, but apart from that, he didn't have much idea about his brother's entry into the NBA. Lin Wei, who was always paying attention to the situation here, was more clear about what Lin Han's entry into the NBA means.

Although Lin Wei was like Lin Yu before college, she basically had no impression of NBA basketball, and they wouldn't care at all. However, since she entered the University of Utah, Lin Wei still passively knew a lot about NCAA and NBA and even NBA drafts. After all, although the University of Utah ranked outside the 100th in the United States in school rankings, the basketball team of this school is actually a strong team of NCAA. The school's basketball atmosphere is very strong. Some female classmates in Lin Wei's class are even members of the cheerleaders of the University of Utah basketball team.

She also heard from her classmates that all the more than 4,000 players in NCAA are basically all aimed at being able to enter NBA, and entering NBA requires participating in NBA drafts. NBA drafts only select 54 people from the world every year. Even for the University of Utah, even the leading players of the University of Utah may not be able to guarantee that they will enter NBA. Although Lin Wei doesn’t know what the specific difficulty of the NBA draft is, she also knows that the leading players of the basketball team in her school are the object of admiration for many girls in the school, and they are well-deserved first star in the school.

Now, everything on TV told her that her younger brother, who had always had no relationship with her, was even better than the basketball player in their school, which was simply unacceptable.

"This guy really knows how to play basketball and scored into the NBA? He went to Chicago not long ago to try out. Has he really trained in the Utah Jazz recently?"

At this time, Lin Wei was full of questions, and the look at Lin Han was extremely complicated. She really couldn't believe all this.

Of course, at this time, Lin Han's family was completely stunned because of Lin Han's entry into the NBA, and at this time the draft scene at Auburn Palace was another scene.

Lin Han was selected by the Jazz with the 18th pick. Basically all teams in NBA know about Lin Han. After all, a month ago, in Chicago's genius training camp, although Lin Han's team was unable to win the championship in the end, this Chinese kid was the scoring champion in the genius training camp. Moreover, because his main scoring method was a Jordan-style jump shot, this Chinese kid was once considered to have some unexplained relationship with Jordan.

Even after the genius training camp, Lin Han was selected as the most surprising rookie in the United States. In the field of American basketball fans, the highest draft ranking was once as high as 30. At that time, almost most NBA teams sent trial invitations to Lin Han, wanting to see up close what was amazing about this guy who was called Jordan's apprentice at the time.

But in the end, because Lin Han refused all invitations and stayed with the Jazz, and because Jordan denied what relationship he had with Lin Han in an interview, Lin Han's draft scenes fell all the way. Because of his weird physical test data and the high school and college appearance record with almost no data, Lin Han was called a flash in the pan before the draft.

It can be said that Lin Han is not without fame among all the rookies this year. On the contrary, Lin Han’s fame can even rank in the top 15. However, because most of these fames of Lin Han are suspicious, when the Jazz chose Lin Han in such a "high ranking", it would cause an uproar among all the management and fans on the scene.

"Is the Jazz crazy? Last year, Jane Humphries signed in the free market. It turns out that Humphries and the Jazz signed a big contract for retirement. Humphries' performance last season hit all the Jazz management teams in the face. If they used the two million dollars to sign Humphries to sign two high-quality substitutes, maybe they wouldn't be ranked sixth in the regular season and were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs."

"It seems that some Jazz fans have suffered this year. Jazz's general manager Scott Rayden has not done anything since he came to the team last year. He signed Humphries last year and selected Lin Han this year. This guy is preparing to be dismissed from the Jazz next year."

"Yeah, if I were the Jazz's boss Larry Miller, I would have fired this guy now. Wouldn't that be a waste of Stockton and Malone's career?"

"Didn't this Chinese have a very close style to Jordan's play? Is this Jazz really successful in this draft?"

"You know, this Chinese is indeed infinitely close to Jordan in terms of jump shots, but if Jordan sprinted three-quarters of the field and ran back for more than 13 seconds, Jordan would have been unable to make it in the NBA any longer."

"Three quarters sprints for 4 seconds? The whole game is back and for more than 13 seconds? Really, this data is much worse than that of me, a person who doesn't exercise frequently. How did he participate in the draft?"

"Who knows how he thought about participating in the NBA draft? Anyway, now he has succeeded, and the Jazz actually chose him in the end. It's such a big shot. If I had known this, I would have also participated in the NBA draft. I was called "Buckley in Downing District" and it was no worse than him, "Jordan, Utah Community College."

Of course, Jazz General Manager Scott Reiden, who was the focus of the game because of the team's No. 18 pick, was actually helpless at this time, because they were originally planning to use this draft pick to choose an inside player. Although the first target was intercepted, they still had the second or even the third target. But in the end, after the team's head coach Jerry Sloan was intercepted, he suddenly called him to use this draft pick to choose Lin Han.

According to Jerry Sloan's explanation, he always felt that he was very upset during the draft today, and something bad might happen. The intercepted inside just now made Jerry Sloan believe in his premonition more, so he was really afraid that even Lin Han, the outside line he values ​​very much, would be intercepted.

Although Jerry Sloan's personal feeling is that there is no basis, Scott Rayden must do it. Although he is the general manager of the team, the head coach of the Jazz is bigger than the general manager.

"It's really a step late."

In fact, Jerry Sloan's feeling is not completely unreasonable. After David Stern announced that Lin Han was selected, Lakers general manager Jerry West, who was sitting off the court, had contacted the Cavaliers. As long as Lin Han was not selected, the Cavaliers selected Lin Han with the 22nd pick in the first round, and then the Lakers would choose to trade with the Cavaliers to exchange an important rotation player on the team with the Cavaliers.

Although Lin Han refused Jerry West and Jerry West had never contacted Lin Han since then, he still couldn't get rid of this young player who was extremely shocked in the genius training camp, but in the end he lost to the Jazz because of the difference in four picks.

"I hope I won't regret it for my life if I miss it this time."

Finally, Jerry West looked at Scott Rayden, the general manager of Jazz not far away, and thought in his mind with some complexity.

Of course, the alarm brought by Lin Han could not affect the progress of the NBA draft. The scene soon returned to peace, and the 1993 NBA draft ended perfectly.

However, although this year's NBA draft ended perfectly, things after the draft ended are not over at all. At least Lin Han will become the focus of public opinion for a long time.
