Edwards saw Wang Yi get the ball and immediately stuck close to him.
But the moment Wang Yi got the ball, he suddenly jumped. Once he was in the air, he turned to face the basket.
He jumped backward, so even though Edwards rushed at him, he still couldn't stop Wang Yi's quick release.
The ball sailed past his fingertips and slipped gently into the hoop, like a loach slipping into the water.
Wang Yi's mid-range shots were always so graceful.
After all, elegance never went out of style.
Wang Yi sank a mid-range shot right in front of Edwards, but Edwards didn't get rattled.
Back on the front court, he continued to dribble and organize the offense with composure.
That was where he had grown the most.
Then he passed the ball to Towns in the paint again.
This time, Wang Yi came back and double-teamed Towns with Tures.
Given Towns's current ability, he could have forced his way through against Wang Yi and Tures.
But since the game had only just started, he didn't try to force it. Instead, he passed the ball back to Edwards.
After dribbling in an arc around the perimeter, Edwards passed to Ishikawa Kaito at the left-side 45-degree mid-range spot.
Wang Yi saw this and immediately rushed over to guard Ishikawa Kaito.
Ishikawa Kaito looked at Wang Yi, who was a head shorter than him, and sneered.
"Baka. You don't know your place."
He was only a second-year player. By the time he entered the league, Wang Yi had already retired.
He had never experienced how terrifying Wang Yi had been at his peak.
He paid no attention to Wang Yi's defense and didn't use a single fake. He simply rose up and shot right over Wang Yi.
This was his most comfortable
