I want to correct a mistake from the previous chapter. The Lakers will not participate in the Orlando Summer League. The previous article has been revised. Sorry for the oversight—please forgive my ignorance.

The Southern California Summer League was founded in 1969. Technically, it is not an NBA Summer League, as it is not run by the NBA. However, the league has hosted NBA teams in the past, including undrafted players and free agents.

Just like the 2003 Summer League, there were a total of ten participating teams: the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, Seattle SuperSonics, Golden State Warriors, Denver Nuggets, Memphis Grizzlies, Toronto Raptors, and the Canadian national team.

That's right, in addition to NBA teams, some national teams are also invited to participate in the Southern California Summer League.

A notable event for China was in 1996, when the Chinese men's basketball team participated in the Southern California Summer League. The well-known national team guard Hu Weidong made six three-pointers against Kobe Bryant and scored 30 points in the game.

What Wang Chong regretted was that the Lakers did not participate in the Orlando Summer League held a week later, nor in the subsequent Boston Summer League.

Although the scale of the Orlando Summer League is not as large as the Southern California Summer League, with only six participating teams, the opponents are interesting. The Cleveland Cavaliers, with No. 1 pick LeBron James, the Detroit Pistons, with No. 2 pick Darko Milicic, and the Miami Heat, featuring Wang Chong's former college teammate, Dwyane Wade, will all participate in the Orlando Summer League.

It would be a lie to say he didn't feel regretful that he couldn't compete with these highly anticipated rookies, especially after Wang Chong used all 3,000 points rewarded by the system task to strengthen and accelerate the progress of template fusion.

Just as Wang Chong had imagined, the 3,000-point reward allowed his ability value to break through the 80 mark, raising his overall ability value to 82!

An overall rating of 82 was slightly lower than what Wang Chong had hoped for, which was to reach 85, but it was still very good.

When the overall ability score is relatively low in the early stages, it improves quickly, and a small amount of points can lead to significant improvement.

However, when the overall ability rating reached above 80, the rate of improvement slowed down significantly.

As expected, as the ability value increases, the higher the ability value, the greater the difficulty of improvement.

A full 3,000 points, but the actual improvement in the overall ability rating is only 7 points, from 75 to 82.

However, although the overall evaluation has not improved much, Wang Chong's various ability values have improved significantly.

This time, Wang Chong did not choose a specific area for improvement but instead used the points to accelerate overall integration.

This led to significant improvements in many of Wang Chong's abilities.

Wang Chong closed his eyes slightly, entered the consciousness space, and looked at his data panel.

Wang Chong used his chance to choose a badge as a reward from a system task, and his choice was undoubtedly shooting.

Wang Chong, whose ability value has been enhanced to 82, has seen the most significant improvement in shooting. His mid-range shots have reached 94, his close-range shots have reached 90, and his free throws have also reached 90. Combined with his stability of up to 92, Wang Chong's shooting ability has made a qualitative leap.

In this case, Wang Chong, of course, wanted to further strengthen his advantages, so it was natural for him to choose the shooting badge.

Wang Chong's luck was as good as ever, and he directly drew the "Enter the Rhythm" badge.

Enter the Rhythm: After a player takes a few shots, each subsequent shot will add an additional bonus to the shooting attribute, regardless of whether it is a hit or a miss. The more shots you take, the higher the bonus to your shooting percentage.

There is no doubt that this is a unique skill. The more shots you take, the higher the hit rate bonus will be, and the bonus will apply whether the shot is made or not.

To be honest, this badge is not very suitable for Wang Chong at the moment because he probably won't get many shot opportunities on the Lakers.

This badge is really suitable for players like Kobe, who are aggressive and focused on shooting.

But it's better to have it than not, and as a shooter-positioned player, this badge is definitely a must-have. Among all the shooting badges, its importance is probably second only to the two signature shooter badges: Sharpshooter and Steady Shooter.

This is the fourth badge Wang Chong has obtained and is also the highest-level badge. Once the trigger effect is activated, the bonus will naturally be quite high.

Wang Chong feels that his abilities may have surpassed those of James, Anthony, and Wade in their rookie seasons, making him currently the strongest rookie in the 2003 class.

Of course, this is just Wang Chong's own belief. Whether it's true or not still needs to be confirmed through official competitions.

Coincidentally, although the Southern California Summer League does not feature James, Wade, or others, Wang Chong's old rival, Carmelo Anthony—who was restricted by Wang Chong in the NCAA finals, causing his team to lose the championship—will also participate in this Southern California Summer League with the Denver Nuggets.

Although Wang Chong cannot compete with both James and Wade, having a rematch with Anthony is still pretty good.

What's more, this time, Wang Chong is not just aiming to limit Anthony on the defensive end. He wants to compete with Anthony head-on to score points and experience the true power of his offensive skills.

With this idea in mind, on July 7, Wang Chong officially joined the Lakers to participate in the Southern California Summer League.
