After getting drunk, Lu Yan won a gaming tournament and drew O'Neal's prime skin, along with 100 bonus free attribute points!
Strength 99! Speed 99! Vertical 99! Explosiveness 99! Athleticism 99! Even his free throws are maxed out at 99!
He wakes up reborn six months before the 2019 World Cup, 216 cm tall, weighing 125 kg, with a 236 cm wingspan, a 118 cm vertical, and an 11-second 100-meter dash!
This isn't a center. It's a shark wearing human skin!
After Yao Ming retired and took the helm, Chinese basketball was left short on talent, repeatedly stumbling on the international stage. At the 2019 World Cup, Zhou Qi made mistake after mistake at crucial moments, personally throwing away China's chance to qualify for the Olympics and becoming the target of the entire internet overnight. Only veteran Yi Jianlian held the line in the paint, becoming the last shred of dignity for Chinese basketball.
Where is the future of Chinese basketball? Where is the talent in the paint?
At the national team training camp, Lu Yan takes Zhou Qi one-on-one and crushes him 5-1!
Yao Ming's hands tremble after seeing the physical test results. "With this kind of talent, he'd be in a league of his own even in the NBA!"
In a do-or-die World Cup game, China is down by eight points when Li Dong finally sends Lu Yan onto the court.
His first possession
A pin against the backboard!
He springs back up and grabs the rebound!
He grabs the offensive board and slams it back in!
Venezuela's big men get demolished! The arena erupts! At last, Yao Ming is smiling!
From an unknown college student to the national team's secret weapon!
From Zhou Qi's background player to the World Cup savior!
From the fringes of the CBA to bringing the Shark's whirlwind back to the NBA!
When O'Neal's skin fully awakens, he single-handedly brings centers back into fashion in the small-ball era!
Yao Ming: "If I'd had a body like that when I was young, even O'Neal would have had to move aside."
The Lu Yan era officially begins!
