Seeing such a message, Di Ge was deeply touched.
The brother only remembers that the player played in Guangdong and participated in the NBA draft.
But the name can no longer be remembered.
So this one, let's talk about the former first high school student in the United States who has been forgotten by fans: Emanuel Mudiel.
In 2015, Mudiel participated in the NBA Draft and was successfully selected by the Nuggets with the seventh overall pick in the first round.
He was 19 years old.
At that time, the Nuggets were in ruins, the team missed the playoffs for two consecutive years, and the core of the team, Ty Lawson, left the team in the offseason.
In this situation, Mudiay naturally became the core of the Nuggets' new reconstruction, with the rookie season getting 66 starts and averaging 30.4 minutes.
In terms of personal data, he also averaged 12.8 points and 5.5 assists per game, and was successfully selected as the best rookie second team at the end of the season.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long...
16-17, the second year of Mudiel's rookie.
Nurkic was traded to the Blazers in the middle of the season, and Jokic was reused by coach Mike Malone with a mysterious pass.
But Mudieu is different, because of the low offensive efficiency and inability to digest the shortcomings of the ball, his tactical proportion began to show a gradual downward trend in the team.
When Murray and Harris began to cash in on their talents again in the 17-18 season, Mudiel completely lost his core and was traded directly to the Knicks in the second half of the season.
He was 21 years old.
In his final year playing for the Knicks, Mudiel actually played well.
He averaged 14.8 points, 3.9 assists and shot 44.6 percent from the field.
However, after the rookie contract, he was still abandoned by the Knicks' tradition.
In the 19-20 season, Mudiay chose to join the Jazz with a basic salary of $1.74 million for one year.
In just 15.7 minutes on average, he can still average 7.3 points and 2.1 assists per game, shooting 46.2% from the field.
But what is puzzling is that after the expiration of his offseason contract, Mudiel was still abandoned.
This year, he was only 23 years old, and after that, he had no ball to play...
why?
One is the three-point difference.
The second is that the defense suffers losses.
The third is to eat the ball.
Mudiel belongs to the standard I score two points, you can also score two points of the player, basically can not defend people.
In addition, if you want him to play on the field, you have to give him a lot of ball power, and because of the unstable projection, he can't play without the ball.
When a player can't turn the ball into something good for the team, it's also a matter of course to be discarded.
If Mudiel can maintain the three points at around 35%, he may continue to serve as a substitute.
Unfortunately, his long-range shooting, measured as a role player, is really not in the flow...
Brothers, why don't you think Mudiel can't play?
