In the editor's office, TJ-Watson is talking to the editor.

"TJ." The editor-in-chief said with a smile: "The day after tomorrow is the game between Davidson College and Saint Louis University. Let's put other things aside and prepare well. This game is attracting a lot of attention."

"I understand." TJ-Watson replied.

The editor-in-chief nodded, and his tone became more casual: "Hehe, what do you think of this match? How much chance does Davidson College have against Saint Louis University?"

TJ-Watson smiled. He knew that the editor-in-chief was also a basketball fan, and he was very concerned about the NCAA games. To a certain extent, he was able to come to the "Charlotte Daily" and had something to do with the editor-in-chief.

Of course, the most important point is because of Meng Yun.

With Xiang Long's rise to fame, Meng Yun also played better and better at Davidson College. In the eyes of the media, Meng Yun's value is also gradually increasing. As the first reporter to report on Meng Yun, TJ-Watson will naturally be praised. focus on. "Charlotte Daily" is very optimistic about Meng Yun's "market" and thinks that he will be another Xianglong if he is not sure, so he sent an invitation to TJ-Watson, and TJ-Watson naturally readily agreed and jumped ship Here comes the Charlotte Journal.

The last interview with Meng Yun received a good response, and the editor-in-chief is a fan, so although TJ-Watson came to the "Charlotte Daily" not long ago, he has already gained a firm foothold.

He also has a good relationship with the editor-in-chief, and they usually talk more casually.

"Editor." TJ Watson thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's really hard to say. I support Davidson College. They have excellent players, such as Evan, Meng Yun, Andy. Mason Carr There is no doubt about the coaching ability of the coach. However, St. Louis University is indeed very strong. For Davidson College, this is a terrible opponent. I am afraid that no one will guess the outcome of the game until then."

"Yeah." The editor-in-chief nodded and said, "It made me want to watch it a little bit, but it's a pity that I have something to do the day after tomorrow and I can't spare the time. It's really a pity."

TJ-Watson said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not too late to see next time."

This is a quiet office.

Kenny Jefferson is sitting at his desk, facing a young man in his twenties, wearing a pair of glasses, looking very capable - he is Kenny Jefferson's assistant, Tommy .

"Tommy." Kenny Jefferson put down the document in his hand and said, "Take care of your affairs quickly, and go to Davidson College with me to watch a game the day after tomorrow."

"The match between Davidson College and Saint Louis University?" Tommy frowned and asked curiously, "Boss, are you interested in Davidson College's Evan Hopps?"

In fact, Kenny Jefferson had noticed Meng Yun and Evan a long time ago, but it was not official. The two were not officially included in the investigation list, so Tommy didn't know.

At this time, Kenny Jefferson mentioned going to Davidson College to watch the game, and Tommy immediately thought of Evan.

As for the St. Louis University players, Tommy knew very well that they did not belong to Kenny Jefferson's attention category, and the energy of scouts was also limited, not any player would pay attention.And even if you want to, it may not be possible, because some players have established a good relationship with other scouts and belong to "other people".

Evan has long released the news that he will participate in the draft after the end of this season, and has not reached even a verbal agreement with any scouts. It is not impossible for Kenny Jefferson to be interested in him.

"Hehe." Kenny Jefferson nodded with a smile. In fact, he cared more about Meng Yun. Evan's strength is good, but his talent is not very good. He will pay attention, but that's not the point.

For scouts, the most important thing is talent!

Of course, Kenny Jefferson didn't intend to explain. Where is the boss who has to explain everything to his subordinates?
Virginia Commonwealth University.

Today's training is over, and the players are leaving one after another.

Xiang Long was not in a hurry to leave. He found the head coach Gabriel Wells and said, "Coach, I would like to ask for a leave the day after tomorrow to watch a game at Davidson College."

"Davis College?" Gabriel Wells thought about it, and said with a smile, "It's the match between Davidson College and St. Louis University. The third and second ranked matches are indeed worthy of attention. They both It's our competitor. Well, I'll go with you."

"No need." Xiang Long shook his head, "The team still needs you, so I can go alone."

Gabriel Wells was a little embarrassed and felt helpless. Fortunately, he was used to Xiang Long's character. He knew that Xiang Long spoke straightforwardly, but he didn't mean anything malicious. He nodded and said, "Okay then, just go. Okay. Take a look at these two teams and talk to me when you come back."

Xiang Long nodded.
