Chapter 308 I Don't Regret
Mason Carr's eyes were wet, and he blamed himself. He really regretted it. If he knew that Meng Yun's injury would be so serious, he would never let Meng Yun play, even if he lost the game.

Seeing Mason Carr blame himself so much, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and the reporters didn't question him anymore. Who would want this kind of thing to happen?
It's just a pity for Meng Yun.

Hopefully he can make a full recovery and return to his original form.

"Coach Carl." The reporter who questioned Mason Carr earlier asked, "I would like to ask, can we go in and interview Meng Yun?"

This is a white man with glasses, tall and sporty. He doesn't even look like a reporter, but more like a fan.In fact, apart from being a reporter, he is indeed a fan, named Adam, and was selected for the basketball team in college, but he is just an ordinary substitute player.

After Adam finished speaking, other reporters also echoed, wanting to interview Meng Yun.

"Yes." Mason Carr nodded and agreed. The doctor had given Meng Yun a simple treatment, but a further diagnosis would require an MRI.If the diagnosis is a torn meniscus in the right knee, then Meng Yun still needs to undergo surgery, but that will be a matter for the future. It is no problem to see the reporter now.

There were too many reporters, and it was impossible for all of them to enter the ward, so Mason Carr randomly selected some reporters, ten of them in total, including Adam.

A group of people came to the ward.

Seeing Mason Carr come in with a group of reporters, Meng Yun sat up, accompanied by Guo Shuyao and Guo Hai. Guo Shuyao's eyes were red, but she didn't shed tears. She is not a sentimental person. In fact, she has always been strong. There was even a bit of coldness in her eyes, and some people called her "Iceberg Beauty" behind her back, but in the past few months because of her father's illness, she was almost physically and mentally exhausted, and she shed so many tears that her eyes were almost dry.

Guo Hai looked calm, but his expression was very bad.

"Coach." Meng Yun called.

"Yeah." Mason Carr responded, pointing at the reporters, "These journalist friends want to interview you."

Meng Yun nodded and looked at a group of reporters.

A group of reporters looked at Meng Yun and were a little surprised. Meng Yun looked calm and didn't look sad. Is it because he didn't know the severity of the injury?No, it shouldn't be.There is no way to hide this kind of thing. The doctor will not allow it, and Mason Carr will not hide it. It is impossible for Meng Yun not to know.

But how could he be so calm
"What an extraordinary young man!"

Almost at the same time, a group of reporters came up with such a sentence in their hearts, and then Adam spoke first and asked, "Meng Yun, can I ask you a few questions?"

"can."

"I just heard from Coach Mason Carr that you actually played with an injury in the last 2 minutes." Adam said, "I would like to ask, did you ask to play?" As a reporter, Adam is still very pragmatic Yes, although Mason Carr said that it was Meng Yun who asked to play, but he still wanted to confirm it in person.

Meng Yundao: "Yes, I took the initiative to ask to play. In fact, Coach Carl did not agree. It was my strong request that he agreed to let me play. It was not Coach Carl's fault that I was injured. It was an accident. Coach Carl didn't know. I'm going to get hurt again. Actually, I didn't think about it myself."

At this moment, there was still a hint of sadness on Meng Yun's face.

The knee meniscus was torn, and Meng Yun was very aware of how serious the injury was, and even more what it meant. It was impossible to say that he was not sad.It's just that he didn't show it, because he didn't want Sister Shuyao and Uncle Guo to worry, and he didn't want Coach Karl to feel guilty that he had hurt him.

"Meng Yun." Adam asked again: "Because you suffered such a serious injury in the last 2 minutes, do you now regret playing with the injury in the last 2 minutes?"

"I don't regret it." Meng Yun replied simply, "I don't regret it at all. I think if I do it all over again, I should still choose to play."

The crowd was moved.

Mason Carr, Danny Clemens, and Evan, Andy and others were all moved.

Meng Yundao: "It is not easy for us to go from the regular season to the semi-finals step by step. My teammates, coaches, and everyone have paid a lot for this. If I choose to give up when I can fight, maybe it won't hurt. It’s so heavy, but I’m afraid I will regret it for a long time. There are many accidents and choices in life, and we don’t know what will happen next. Just like today, we created a miracle, reversed the game, and defeated the University of Kentucky, but I got hurt because of it. I didn't have a choice, so I'm willing to accept it, at least. I didn't get nothing."

Adam was silent for a while before he said: "Meng Yun, do you know? Actually, I am your fan. Since entering the 'March Madness', I have watched every game of yours. I hope you can get better as soon as possible, God bless you."

"Thank you." Although Meng Yun didn't believe in God, he still thanked him.

Adam retreated to the back, another reporter stepped forward and asked, "Meng Yun, will this injury affect your participation in the NBA draft? I mean, will you give up participating in the NBA draft because of this?"

Although Meng Yun once stated through the "Charlotte Daily" that he would participate in this year's NBA draft, before today, Meng Yun's prospects for the draft were also rising all the way, and he was optimistic.

But now he is injured, or a torn meniscus in his knee, which will inevitably affect his draft prospects, and the teams that were originally optimistic about him will also have concerns.

For Meng Yun, giving up the draft seems to be a good choice. After all, he has not yet formally submitted an application to the NBA, nor has he hired an agent. It is too late to regret.

"No." Meng Yun shook his head resolutely, which surprised the reporters again. Meng Yun said: "I will not give up the draft. Although the injury will have some impact, I will not give up the draft."

"Why?" The reporter asked: "Please let me say that. I don't think you are actually suitable for the draft right now. It might be better to wait another year."

Meng Yun shook his head without answering.

Afterwards, the reporters asked some more questions, Meng Yun answered selectively, and then Mason Carr invited the reporters out on the grounds that Meng Yun needed to rest.

When the reporter left, Guo Hai suddenly said, "Meng Yun, actually"

"Uncle Guo." Knowing what he was going to say, Meng Yun interrupted with a smile: "You don't have to worry, just leave everything to me. It's just an injury. Players who were injured before the draft might not be selected in the end, so don’t be so pessimistic.”
