Luka, Lose Some Weight~~

After the game, Chen Xi rose from the bench and headed over to the other side, where he sought out Doncic.

"Luka! Great game. It seems like you've improved again over the summer."

"You blew me out, Chris..."

There was no joy on Doncic's face at the thought of how much his game had improved...

"Hey, buddy, don't be like that. You scored 37 points tonight! And you also had 11 assists. That's nowhere near getting blown out. Basketball is a team sport."

"But we lost as a team, too."

"...I've realized you're a real stickler for details~~"

Chen Xi stepped forward again and gave Doncic a gentle hug, then, with a strange look on his face, gave Dongzi's belly a rub. He'd only meant to hug him lightly, but he could feel his stomach pushing back~~

"If I had to say there's anything you still need to work on, maybe you should try to keep your weight under control, buddy. Given your style of play, a slight increase in weight can help you stay more stable, but it also raises your risk of injury. You're still improving at a rapid pace, and I'd hate to see that precious time wasted on recovery. If, four or five years from now, or six or seven years from now, you end up wasting the prime of your career because of a knee or ankle injury, that'd be a real shame."

"All right. If that's what you think, I'll consider it."

Dongzi nodded. In fact, Chen Xi wasn't the only one who'd urged him to keep his weight under control.

But... he just couldn't resist!!!

Was that damn fat-loss meal plan even fit for human consumption?!
