All four young men did not disappoint Link.

Jokic has begun to show his talent. This guy was recommended to Barcelona last season and was rejected because he failed the physical test and his self-esteem was greatly hit.

Since then, this fat boy has worked hard and played very well last season and has completed most of the training assigned by the Grizzlies.

His efforts will not be in vain, and now all the results are reflected in the training ground.

Excellent support and passing ability, soft feel, can continue to the range outside the three-point line, and solid basic skills...

Jokic showed almost all his strengths, knocking Harrell out of his mind.

The key is that Jokic, a fat white center who looks unintimidating, has a very good frame protection ability.

He really can't block the shot that can fly, but he can always appear in the most correct defensive position.

Dinwiddie also showed his all-round side, and his playing style is more like the scoring core of a team.

He can do everything by shooting, breaking through, passing the ball.

This kind of all-around defender does take time to settle down. If you don’t practice enough leveling, you will be unable to achieve success. But once you practice it, you will be a big killer.

Richardson's situation is similar to Dinwiddie. If he grows smoothly, he should be able to form a very powerful second-position rotation combination with Dinwiddie.

When Butler left, Carter and Tony Allen were unable to take on the starting job due to their age, the impact of these two guys' growth on the Grizzlies was crucial.

In the end, although Monterres Harrell was at a disadvantage in the game against Jokic, he still allowed people to see his shining points.

The most obvious point is that this guy plays very hard on the court, even if it is just a training match, he plays quite actively, which is very consistent with the bandit temperament of the Grizzlies.

Moreover, although Harrell is only 2.01 meters tall and is two centimeters shorter than Link, his wingspan is 2.24 meters and his athletic ability is very strong.

These two points can effectively fill in his height shortcomings.

That said, Harrell is perfectly capable of becoming an excellent short inside player.

Once upon a time, in the era of famous parallel-branded Bennett, short inside players were not easy to succeed in the league, and players who were not too disliked were not popular. But now in this league, short inside players have become more and more popular. Draymond Green's success is the best example.

Harrell is like Draymond Green, whose shooting ability and organizational ability have weakened, but his athletic ability has been greatly enhanced.

With him here, the Grizzlies' small lineup tactics will be more handy.

In the end, although Jokic and Dinwiddie finally won the 2-on-2 showdown. However, Harrell and Richardson's performance was also very satisfactory.

After the trial, Jogel, Link and Snyder were in a good mood.

Being able to strengthen the team through draft is the most cost-effective way.

As long as these four people are trained properly, they will likely become the backbone of the Grizzlies' future.

The only trouble now is to see if the Grizzlies can successfully win these four people in the draft.

A few days later, the draft was very lively. This was the year of the draft, and the top four of this year's draft also included two big-market teams, the Lakers and the Knicks.

The huge number of fans of the two teams has made this year's draft more eye-catching.

However, this lively scene has nothing to do with the Grizzlies, because the two Grizzlies' targets, Harrell and Richardson, were not even invited to enter the "little black room".

The Rockets were originally interested in Harrell and were planning to take him off with their second pick in the second round.

But in the first round, the Grizzlies intercepted Harrell.

Harrell was at home at this time and his grandmother was not feeling well, so he decided to stay at home to accompany the elderly.

On that day, many relatives and friends came to Harrell's house, and they were all ready to celebrate with Harrell.

The NCAA champion who helped Louisville University win the NCAA championship in 2013, averaged 15.7 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game in the 14-15 season, and won the Carl Malone Award - the NCAA men's basketball power forward of the year. He has been waiting for the Grizzlies' 30th pick, which is his only hope to enter the first round.

As a result, he got what he wanted.

What surprised Harrell was that less than a minute after he was selected, Link personally sent him a congratulatory text message!

A unknown first-round final rookie has received the attention of the league's greatest player, which makes Harrell very grateful and excited.

He made up his mind not to let the Grizzlies regret their choice. And if he wanted to make the previous 29 teams that missed their own, he would go to hell!

Link knew very well that the secret of winning in NBA was actually outside of basketball.

Why did Randolph turn back in Memphis? It was because he was respected on his first day here.

Why did Iguodala say such words as "to protect Link's glory"? Because the actions of the Grizzlies players made this player, who was originally not a big city, fall in love with the small town of Memphis.

Why did Whiteside realize his talent in Memphis? Because there is a leader here who doesn't call him naive but cares about 2k ability values ​​just like him.

These things have nothing to do with basketball itself, but they are the key to the success of the Grizzlies. These things really put the Grizzlies players together and enhanced their combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Link gave Harrell enough respect and attention. He believed that Harrell would also give back to himself with his efforts.

Then, Josh Richardson was successfully recruited by the Grizzlies at the 40th pick in the second round. Grizzlies fans were very happy about this. After all, Richardson was very popular in Tennessee when he was at the University of Tennessee.

Link also sent a text message to Richardson and invited him to go to his training camp this summer for special training.

Richardson naturally agreed readily, and of course, he had already put in all his efforts to do a big fight in the new season.

Surgeon? Well, this dream is already a thing of the past. Now, he is wearing the battle robe of the Memphis Grizzlies, and he is extremely glorious!

Of course, the joining of Harrell and Richardson did not cause any trouble in the draft.

What people care about is D'Angelo Russell who joins the Lakers, Carl Anthony Towns and Jalier Okafor, the matchup between two big guys in the NBA, Porzingis who was booed by Knicks fans after being selected, and Mudiat who fell sharply.

Harrell and Richardson? Not even a few people know who they are.

But because of this, Link's emphasis on them will play a greater role.

At this point, the Grizzlies have completed the first job of this busy summer.

Although the free agent market will be opened soon, this period of time is enough to give the Grizzlies a good breath.

The Grizzlies completed their first mission in the summer, but Link's first secret mission this summer has not yet begun.

After the draft, Link called Robert Pera with Rachel on his back.

Then, Link officially put his trip to Europe on the agenda.
Chapter completed!
