Reborn as the Trail Blazers' General Manager

Kobe and Wallace feature early on.

Lu Cheng is reborn from 2025 into the Portland Trail Blazers’ general manager’s office in 1995. Looking at the scouting reports spread across his desk on “glass-bodied center” Sabonis and high school prospect Garnett, he smiled. In this life, he would completely reshape the NBA. One of his staff asked, “Boss, are we really using the seventh pick on that skinny high schooler?” Lu Cheng closed the report. “No. Trade the pick for an undrafted high schooler taken thirteenth.” “Also, offer a contract to that second-rounder in Chicago. Yes, the security guard named Ben Wallace.”
