Star Players After Star Players

The Shizi Dogs stepped off the bus and into the bustling lobby of their living facility in Beijing. The enormous hotel stood before them, its sleek glass exterior reflecting the early afternoon sun. 

The hotel was reserved for the entire three weeks for the delegates of the Nationals. And now, for the first time, the Shizi Dogs were among them.

They entered through the lobby, appearing like a fish out of water. 

Wherever they went, their height stood out. However, in the lobby filled with basketball players their age, they didn't look special at all. 

"Wait here," Coach Muchen said. "I'll just get your keycards and talk with some of the coaches to acquaint myself." 

Lina nodded and led the boys to the middle of the lobby.
