362 New contract: $84 million(1/2)

July 10, 2022 - fans later called this day King's Advent Day.

It is from this day that the era of Wang Yi reigning over the world arrives!

After he was traded by the team, he had almost nothing.

Scorned by the whole world.

Then conquer the entire NBA and become the master of the NBA.

Eventually he dominated the NBA for 20 years.

Wang Yi’s era is here!



When Wang Yi got off the plane, she contacted Kings General Manager Vlade Divac through the phone number Sister Luo gave her.

Divac voluntarily resigned two years ago due to unfavorable transactions.

But in the two years since his resignation, the team still has not improved at all.

So the boss called him back to serve as the team's general manager again.

Divac was once a player for the Kings and averaged 17 points per game at his peak.

Divac was surprised when he heard that Wang Yi was coming to the team to report so soon: "Wang, where are you now?"

"On the way to the hotel."

When Divac heard this, he pondered slightly.

Then he said: "Wang, you stay in the hotel tonight, we will arrange a place for you now, and you will move here tomorrow. By the way, which hotel are you in? Tell me the room number, and the coach and I will go see you later.

one side."

Wang Yi was slightly startled.

He has changed many teams before, and every time he arrives at a new team, he takes the initiative to report to the general manager and coach.

Sometimes if the general manager and coach are busy, he has to wait for several hours to see them.

This was the first time that a general manager came to visit him in person.

"No, don't bother coming here. Wherever you are, let us come find you."

Wang Yi will be even more polite to those who are polite to him.

But Divac was very determined: "Wang, you have just arrived and are not familiar with this place yet. Let us come find you. Which hotel are you in?"

"Viceroy Hotel, Sacramento, Room 11."

Divac said: "If it's convenient for you, we will arrive in an hour."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yi and Nicole took a taxi and headed to the Viceroy Hotel in Sacramento.

This is a three star hotel.

Nicole originally didn't want to book a hotel like this.

It didn't matter to her. She even stayed in the cheapest motel for the interview.

He wanted to book the best hotel for Wang Yi.

But Wang Yi refused.

The Viceroy Hotel in Sacramento is only a 15-minute drive from the airport.

Wang Yi was tired after flying for more than five hours and wanted to rest as soon as possible.

When they arrived at the hotel room, Nicole said she had something else to do and left early.

Wang Yi took a shower and lay on the bed.

Staring straight at the ceiling.

He was thinking about the Kings' past history.

There are some miserable teams in the NBA, but the Kings are one of the worst.

After they won their only championship in 1951, they never made it to the Finals for the next 70 years.

And as of this year, it has failed to reach the playoffs for 16 years, which is the longest consecutive failure to reach the playoffs in the league.

It can be said that the Kings are a super bad team.

Because they are a small-market team, they have never recruited any big-name stars.

Last season, four teams in the league lost money.

Among them, the team that lost the most money was the Kings.

Maybe it's because the Kings don't have a glorious history and no one pays attention to them.

So even their management seems to have given up and has always been Buddhist.

Every summer, the free market is turbulent.

Other teams are busy making trades, reinforcements, and cleaning up junk contracts.

The Kings basically have no desires or desires.

He is like an eminent monk who has practiced Buddhism for many years.

It is such a team that this year gave away their former star Fox, in exchange for Wang Yi.

This is something many people didn't expect.



Wang Yi thought a lot.

This team is in a big quagmire right now.

But he still didn't believe in this evil.

Even if it is mud, he has to shape it.

They even made it into a statue of God and carved it into the tallest Leshan Giant Buddha in the world!

The more Wang Yi thought about it, the more excited he became.

Both fists couldn't help but clenched tightly.

More than an hour later, the doorbell of Wang Yi's room rang.

Opening the door, I saw three people standing outside.

General Manager Divac;

coach Luke Walton;

There was also a short Asian man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

Although he is not tall and looks a little thin, he feels very strong.

Wang Yi has some impression of this person.

He is an Indian, but now he is an American citizen.

Vivek Ranadive, IT tycoon.

He is the boss of the Kings.

Wang Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the team owner would personally take action.

You know, in the NBA, every one of those bosses has deep pockets.

Which one is not a billionaire?

Although many of those players are multi-millionaires, these bosses still look down upon these players.

In the eyes of most owners, players are just tools for them to make money.

So when players come to a new team, the boss basically won't greet them.

Only big-name stars like James and Durant will have bosses to greet them.

Wang Yi thinks that he has not yet reached that level.

But I didn’t expect that Boss King would come in person.

"Hello, Wang, I'm glad you can join us. Your arrival will make people full of hope for the new season."

Ranadive smiled and stretched out his hand as he spoke.

Wang Yi also extended his hand politely: "Hello, I didn't expect you to come here in person."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Ranadive laughed: "As your hope for our rise, of course I will come to greet you personally. If you had told me earlier, I would have made a special trip to pick you up at the airport."

Next, Wang Yi shook hands with general manager Divac and coach Walton.

Entering the room, the three people first expressed their heartfelt welcome to Wang Yi's arrival.
