Los Angeles, although this is not Link’s home court, Link is not unfamiliar with this place.

After all, he has been sweating his sweat in Los Angeles for two consecutive years.

At this time, Link was having supper with Kobe and his family in the restaurant. Link was very excited after training today and talked too much. Not only did he chat with Kobe, Vanessa and Kobe's two daughters, he also had a very happy chat.

It can be seen that Link was in a very good mood. Although the reason why he was happy seemed fascinated by others, Link did not suppress his happiness at all.

"Link, have you been training like this crazy all summer?" As I ate, Kobe talked about the topic again on basketball.

Kobe's wife Vanessa has become accustomed to this. Kobe is such a person, and his mind is always on the basketball court. Perhaps he will only put down the basketball when he retires.

"Well" Link thought seriously. Except for the month that just ended the season, Link seemed to be training crazy first, and after the training camp, Link did not relax. No matter where he went, he held a basketball.

Until now, the pre-season training camp for the new season is about to begin, and Link has no intention of stopping.

"That's right, if I only rely on the one month of training in pre-season training camp, I think it's far from enough." Link spread his hands. Training was not painful for him, because his training progress could be quantified by the little white bars.

For most people, no, it should be said that for everyone except Link, whether their training can be effective and how effective it is is all unknown.

Every summer, there are countless stars who spend high tuition fees to train at Olajuwon training camp, but only a few can learn. James once shot tens of thousands of times in a summer, but his shooting ability is still not stable enough.

Even so, people still enjoy participating in various training camps just to gain a chance of improvement.

Link did not have such risks. He could clearly see the changes in the progress bar. As long as he trained, he would make 100% progress.

Ordinary people cannot get timely feedback when training, or even no feedback directly. So for them, training is a painful thing.

But after each training, Link can get intuitive feedback. In this case, Link is naturally more obsessed with training than others.

"Sure enough, I didn't stop all summer long," Kobe smiled. He did this when he was young.

"But the damage to your body will be very huge when you train like this. I know you want to become stronger, but you still have to be careful of your body. The body is the basis of everything." This time, the rupture of the Achilles tendon was still very huge to Kobe.

At the same time, it also makes him cherish his body more. Human bodies are fragile. No matter how powerful you are before, you have to lie down.

Link has just won the championship and is in full swing. Kobe doesn't want Link to fall from the altar due to an unexpected injury.

As a friend, he didn't want to see Link like that.

"Link, I'll give you a phone number. This is my previous call from a physiotherapist. She has been working for the Lakers since the 1990s. However, last year, I didn't know if she would still like to return to the NBA now. If your body is in this high load state, there will be a high-level physiotherapist there to help you recover."

Kobe said, sending the phone number to Link's mobile phone. Link was a little flattered, and he never knew that Kobe was paranoid, cruel and hardworking. But this was the first time that Link saw Kobe's warm side.

"If I were asked to evaluate her, she was the best physiotherapist in the world, hahaha! You know, I have a lot of business activities every summer. Asia, Europe, America and almost all over the world. But no matter where I go, I will take her. In this way, when the new season begins, I will be full of energy. By the way, I almost forgot to say that she is also a Chinese, just like you."

"Oh?" At first, Link didn't feel anything about this physiotherapist. But I heard that he was also a Chinese? Link became interested in it instantly.

In the NBA, there are few Chinese players, while Chinese staff are also scarce.

A top Chinese physiotherapist? Link feels mysterious the more he hears it.

Beautiful Chinese physiotherapist? A Chinese master doctor hidden in the crowd? No, how could this kind of scene that only appears in third-rate novels happen in real life?

"What's her name?" Link asked carefully, finding that he knew nothing about the physiotherapist.

"Her name is Judy Saito. I'll tell her in advance later and tell him your situation. If the Lakers hadn't already had a new candidate for physical therapist, I wouldn't have recommended her to others casually." Kobe blinked at Link, as if he had given Link a secret weapon.

※※※

After Link returned to the dormitory, he immediately searched for the name Judy Saito.

What surprised Link was that there was a lot of information about her on search engines. As a physiotherapist, being so famous is enough to prove her level.

Judy Saito is indeed not a beautiful Chinese physiotherapist. She is already middle-aged and has a poor appearance. To put it more bluntly, it is no different from ordinary aunts on the streets of China.

But Saito's resume is exactly the opposite of her ordinary appearance.

In her early years, she studied human physics and exercise psychology at UCL. Later, she went to Stanford University to obtain her master's degree in physical therapy and then received her PhD in physical therapy from Temple University. In addition, Judy Saito also obtained a sports clinical medicine license, a surgical plastic surgery license and a strength fitness medicine license.

There is no doubt that Judy is definitely a top student in sports medicine. Not to mention anything else, her basic theoretical knowledge must have surpassed many people.

Of course, Saito's practical abilities and achievements are also not bad.

As Kobe said, Sato was already a physical therapist for the Lakers in the 1990s. Since 2000, he has been fully responsible for Kobe's physical therapist and has been promoted to the chief physical therapist for the Lakers.

In many photos of Kobe, even in the photos of the champion, a seemingly inconspicuous middle-aged Chinese woman will appear. It turns out that she is not a fan, it is Judy Saito! She is around Kobe almost all the time, and in Kobe's glorious history, she is called "the secret weapon of the Lakers dynasty" by the media. Some fans also jokingly call her the woman behind a successful man. Because she has been with Kobe for more time than Vanessa.

After browsing all the news about Saito on the Internet, Link couldn't wait to cooperate with Saito. Although the other party is not a beautiful Chinese or a hidden master, she is indeed the most professional in sports medicine.

Physical therapy is a very important cultivation and prevention measure for a player's body. Although it is definitely not possible to stay away from injuries, it is definitely better than not.

When Link saw that it was getting late, he was afraid that he would disturb the rest, so he decided to call again the next day. But Link didn't expect that he would receive the call first.

"Hey, is it Mr. Lin? It's the phone number given by Mr. Kobe Bryant."

As soon as the phone was connected, Link heard a very friendly Chinese.

The protective cover behind Link's hard work next season seems to have been woven in advance.

Two days later, less than two weeks before the start of the NBA new season training camp, the Grizzlies officially released a piece of news that seems to be unattractive to outsiders but is of great significance to Link.

"The Memphis Grizzlies officially hired former Lakers physiotherapist Judy Saito as the chief physiotherapist. After continuing Kobe, she will protect Link's health."
