Death Dunk Returns
Hachimura was a little dazed after getting blocked.
He had clearly seen that Zhou Qi wasn't paying attention to him at all. How had Zhou Qi suddenly reacted and blocked his shot?
To be honest, he looked down on Zhou Qi a little.
He'd spent two years in the NBA without making much of himself.
And then there was that famous sideline blunder.
In a One-on-One matchup, he was confident he could completely dominate Zhou Qi on both ends of the floor.
So he hadn't given Zhou Qi a second thought. He never expected to get blocked by him now.
He shook his head, telling himself it was just bad luck.
On the next possession, he saw Zhou Qi still wasn't defending with much focus, so he felt confident taking Shen Zijie one-on-one.
He dribbled in a step, then spun around, trying to shoot a floater.
But right then, a figure leaped high behind him, almost completely blocking his path to the basket.
While still in the air, the figure snatched the ball right out of his hands.
It was none other than China Team's number zero, Wang Yi.
As Hachimura backed Shen Zijie down, there'd been enough time for Wang Yi to get over and swat him with a brutal block.
After getting blocked in turn by three China Team players, Hachimura felt like he'd been screwed over.
Damn, did they really have to be this ruthless?
And he wasn't just getting blown out on offense. He was getting blown out on defense too.
Zhao Jiwei passed to Zhou Qi, trying to set him up for an alley-oop dunk.
But Hachimura leaped high and disrupted the play.
Shen Zijie hurriedly dove to the floor to grab the ball.
Several Japan Team players dove for it too.
