Chapter 4

He didn’t know what kind of career Webster and Kevin Durant would have in the future, but as far as high school went, Webster was probably a bit stronger, right?

As for Kevin Durant’s strength, Yes wasn’t sure.

But Webster’s strength—how could he not know?

In short, he absolutely didn’t dare to use his precious chance to change his fate to draw Webster’s player card.

Even if Webster’s player card was five-star!

So what if it’s five-star? Even five-star cards can be trash!

If he wasn’t even willing to draw Webster’s player card, there was no need to mention Kevin Durant’s.

As for Stephen Curry, his familiarity with Stephen Curry wasn’t because of his strength, but because of his father.

Stephen Curry is an NBA second-generation star. Because he’s cute, he’s been on TV since he was little, and the news would report on him from time to time.

As for Stephen Curry’s strength, it’s a bit lacking compared to his fame.

Stephen Curry is also a high school senior now. Yes remembered that Stephen Curry’s national ranking was even lower than his own among seniors, right?

With that kind of ranking, there’s no way to get a scholarship from a prestigious university.

That means, no matter what happens to Stephen Curry in the future, at least in high school, he’s stronger than Stephen Curry!

At the very least, he could still get scholarship offers from the University of Arizona and the University of Washington.

Although these two universities aren’t as good as top schools like North Carolina or Duke, they’re still considered prestigious.

That’s exactly why, for the past two years, when the card pool UP was all about Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant, he was about to cry.

At that time, he really thought, it didn’t have to be Jordan or Chamberlain—even if it was just a five-star card like Ray Allen, he’d draw it!

Maybe God heard his prayers, because after two years, the card pool UP finally refreshed, and finally got rid of Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant.

“Even if it’s just high school Jordan, it’s still Jordan! What more could I want?”

Besides, he didn’t have a choice.

Last time, when it was the double UP of Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant, he waited two years for them to cycle out.

Who knows how many years it’ll take for this Jordan UP to cycle out?

He’d already used up all his potential, his strength had reached its peak, and he desperately needed a new way to improve—he really had no choice.

“The strongest player on earth, the North Carolina Airman, five-star card, high school Jordan is on an amazing UP!”

“Jordan, it’s decided—it’s you!”

Yes used his only single-draw ticket on the card pool!

Silver light flashed, white feathers fluttered, and a card stopped spinning!

Silver card, not gold—so, not Jordan?!

Item: John Wall (High School) Player Card

Level: Three-star (Super Rare)

Effect: After equipping this card, if your explosiveness or speed potential is below 80, it will be adjusted to 80; at the same time, speed and explosiveness increase by 10%.

Looking at the card flashing before his eyes, Yes was speechless for a long time.

“Is this for real?”

What about the promised miracle?

So, all these years he’d been hoping to use this lottery ticket to change his fate—was it all for nothing?

The chance of drawing a five-star on a single pull is only one percent!

So, all his previous complaints about Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry—were they all for nothing?

He actually never had a chance to draw the five-star versions of Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant!

With only one lottery ticket, did he really deserve to draw Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant? Did he? Not a chance!

The card pool was so realistic, it made Yes feel like he couldn’t even breathe.

This was his only chance to change his fate!

With a chance this realistic, how was he supposed to change his fate?

Even if he completed the second main quest and got another single-draw chance, it probably wouldn’t change much for him.

Frustrated, he wanted to cry.

Physical attributes: Strength: 45/50 (50), Explosiveness: 72/80 (80), Speed: 72/80 (80), Lateral movement: 60 (60), Agility: 60 (60), Jump: 50 (50), Balance: 55 (55), Stamina: 55 (55), Overall rating: D (Top Amateur)

After equipping this player card, his double speed potential became 80.

His double speed stats also increased by 10% from the base of 60, plus the 10% boost from his weightless state, for a total increase of 20%.

The total value reached 72.

This three-star player card didn’t improve him much, but it was still an improvement.

More importantly, after equipping this card, his explosiveness and speed potential really did increase!

“So, I can keep growing now?”

Glancing at his changed attribute panel, Yes quickly got up, changed clothes, and ran out of the dorm into the cold Seattle wind.

Seattle at the end of January is very cold, and it was already the middle of the night. Today’s lowest temperature in Seattle was minus 2 degrees!

But Yes had already lived through four winters and summers in Seattle, so going out to train in this kind of weather wasn’t a first for him.

When it came to talent, he was terrible, but when it came to hard work, he never lost to anyone!

No matter what time it was in Seattle, or how many degrees below zero, he’d experienced it all!

Two hours later, in the cold Seattle wind, Yes dragged his aching and sore body back to the dorm.
