Chapter 126 Wiggins Awakened?
When the 3rd quarter started.
No one felt that the condition of the players on both sides was any different from the first two quarters.
After all, the people are still the same people, how could they be different?
But.
When Sashiro was on the field, that uneasy feeling became stronger.
Although he didn't know the reason yet, he was clear about one thing, that is, something was going to happen.
Here, the Timberwolves have the ball.
At this time, the entire Lakers team still felt a little nervous facing Jimmy Butler's attack.
In this game, it can be said that Jimmy Butler's offense was quite stable.
The feel is also extremely hot.
Being able to maintain such a score is inseparable from Butler's hot form.
But.
The Lakers did not feel any pressure at this time.
After all, even if they can get a few points, the Lakers' scoring ability is far greater than that of the Timberwolves!
Jimmy Butler on this side dribbled the ball and went straight to the low post.
Immediately afterwards, Jimmy Butler turned around and leaned back.
The Lakers' inside defensive players naturally rushed out immediately afterwards.
However.
JB didn't shoot straight.
Swish!
He threw the ball high into the paint.
"What is this doing?"
"High hanging? But there's no one inside!"
"Isn't the position he gave a little high?"
"It looks like this ball is going out of bounds."
At this time, the audience was talking about it.
Because this ball seemed to be passed without any reason!!
But at this moment.
Suddenly, a figure leaping high appeared in the Lakers' inside line.
Andrew Wiggins!!
"What the hell!?"
Accompanied by a beautiful exclamation.
Andrew Wiggins jumped up and dunked the ball directly into the basket! !
Peng!!!
Score!
Minnesota Timberwolves scored two more points!!
At this time, even the Timberwolves head coach was stunned.
"f**k? Is this still our health-conscious Wiggins?"
He was confused.
He has never seen this kind of play since Wiggins entered the NBA.
You can't say Wiggins is bad, nor can you say he is strong.
Let's just say he's a bad cook.
He scored 18 points every time.
Say he is strong.
He scored 18 points every time...
This is his conventional way of maintaining health.
The coach knows that he can do better and become a historical superstar!
But it all depends on what Wiggins wants to do.
With almost the same physical test data as LeBron James, the current No. 1 player in the league, who dares to say that Wiggins is not the chosen one? !
A standard small forward with body and wingspan, and exaggerated breakthrough ability and speed.
He possesses the talent that all players in this small ball era dream of!
However, Wiggins's performance of not working hard has really made the coach helpless.
In recent games, his condition has been average.
Actually, to be honest.
Even Butler has a love-hate relationship with this teammate.
Really, almost every basketball player would envy Wiggins' talent.
As the saying goes.
No matter what you question, don't question Wiggins' talent!
However, Wiggins, who had always been working without any effort, actually dunked in this game! !
This really makes people feel like a dream!
After landing, Andrew Wiggins looked at JB who was confused and said:
"What are you waiting for? Go back to defense."
"what the hell..."
Although JB is puzzled, he is still happy with Wiggins' current performance.
After all, Wiggins' current condition can almost represent one thing.
The next game...
They will definitely win!!
Looking at Wiggins who was already in the game, Sashiro was slightly stunned.
It turns out that this bad premonition...is because of Wiggins.
This feeling is very subtle.
It's like a thorn in the palm of your hand.
I don't think it's anything, but it still hurts.
When Sashiro had the ball, he kept observing Wiggins' movements on the court.
Certainly.
Even Sashiro couldn't ignore Wiggins if he wanted to.
Because Kyle Kuzma is right in front of Wiggins, constantly asking for the ball...
"Brother Bai! Come here!!"
"I'm stuck, pass the ball to me!"
"Hey, hey, I have a chance!"
"Look at me!!"
...
To be honest.
Sashiro felt that this shot was not going to work.
It really doesn't work!
If you pass the ball to him, there is a high probability that it will be given in vain.
But.
On the one hand, Kuzma kept asking for the ball, and on the other hand, Sashiro also wanted to see how good Wiggins was now.
So here, Sashiro turned around and found an opportunity, then passed the ball directly to Kyle Kuzma.
Well!
After receiving the ball, Kuzma smiled.
Promotion and salary increase, here I come!!
Peng!!
This shot was not the sound of Kuzma's dunk.
But the moment he turned around, he was covered with a big hat! ! !
After Kuzma ran into position, he almost left Wiggins behind.
But.
Just at the moment Kuzma shot.
Wiggins suddenly jumped up from behind.
Directly gave Kuzma a hot block! !
Bang!
It's just like using a fly swatter to swatter a fly, so crisp.
This also confused Kuzma.
When did this guy appear?!
The ball flew out.
Sashiro took action immediately.
However, although Wiggins was a step later than Sashiro, he was closer to the ball.
Wiggins grabbed the ball in one step.
Sashiro, who had foreseen this, did not linger too much and rushed to the basket following Wiggins' attack.
"Too fast, these two are really too fast!!"
"Damn, he's really one step ahead of everyone!?"
"This is too awesome. What happened to Brother Goji today?"
"Did he drink the wrong thing today? Brothers, who poured Red Bull into our wolfberry brother's thermos? Ah, stand up! Apologize to us brothers!!"
...
Wiggins rushed over here, and his speed was quite fast.
Although Sashiro was also following closely behind him, he was still a step too late.
Bang!!
Wiggins made a crisp slam dunk and slammed the ball into the Lakers' basket.
Sashiro looked at Wiggins in front of him and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"You can't pass the ball like that anymore!"
Sashiro thought so in his heart.
On the one hand, Sashiro could clearly feel that the visual misdirection of his pass had reached its limit.
Almost all the players on the field have gradually adapted to their own passing, and now it is difficult to create opportunities for teammates unexpectedly.
On the other hand.
This is also what Sashiro is most worried about.
That's what Wiggins seems to...
Awakened!
