Before the start of the playoffs, Lian Dao realized he still had a chance to draw a talent jersey and 20,000 points. The talent points he accumulated during this period had not been used, and now they totaled 20,948. Of these, 20,000 were obtained by collecting Klay's jersey, and 948 were earned over the last 12 games.
"System, why is Klay's jersey only worth 20,000 points? You must know that he will be an All-Star player in the future and someone with three NBA championships."
[You also know that it is in the future? Right now, his No. 1 jersey in college is only worth 20,000 points! The system will not make mistakes!]
"How many points are his jerseys from his NBA peak worth?"
[Klay Thompson's Warriors No. 11 jersey talent value: 90,000 points!]
"Damn!"
This realization made Lian Dao feel disadvantaged. A difference of 70,000 points could directly improve his level significantly. However, he quickly recognized that his current strength wouldn't allow him to exchange jerseys with Klay at his peak.
In competitive sports, strength is everything. Without comparable strength, even if he entered the NBA, no big-name player would be willing to exchange jerseys with him.
"System, initiate the lottery draw!"
Following Lian Dao's command, the projection of the Washington State Cougars No. 1 jersey in the system shattered and slowly merged into a large turntable with four main colors: purple, blue, green, yellow, and red, each corresponding to different prizes.
Purple: Klay Thompson's all-talent template - Chance of winning: 5%. As a future All-Star player, Klay's talent is at the NBA superstar level, but it's the hardest to draw.
Blue: Exclusive skill "Buddha's Radiance" (upgradable), maximum speed talent, maximum jumping talent, maximum explosive force talent, maximum strength talent, maximum stamina talent, etc. - Chance of winning: 10%.
Green: Skill training effect 2x bonus card (1 month), strength training effect 4x bonus card (24 hours), speed training effect 4x bonus card (24 hours), physical training effect 4x bonus card (24 hours), bounce training effect 4x bonus card (24 hours), etc. - Chance of winning: 15%.
Yellow: Strength training effect 2x bonus card (24 hours), speed training effect 2x bonus card (24 hours), physical training effect 2x bonus card (24 hours), bounce training effect 2x bonus card (24 hours), etc. - Chance of winning: 30%.
Red: Baseball skills, driving skills, game skills, etc. - Chance of winning: 40%.
This time, Lian Dao noticed an exclusive skill among the blue skills: "Buddha's Radiance," which had an introduction:
Buddha's Radiance (Beginner): After equipped, the three-point shooting rate will increase by 5%.
As the turntable spun rapidly, Lian Dao watched intently. The pointer slowed and moved closer to the red area, causing his heart to race.
"Don't stop in the red zone!"
Just when it seemed like the pointer would stop in the red zone, it shifted slightly and landed on the junction of red and purple, leaning towards purple.
Lian Dao sighed in relief and excitement.
"Hahaha! I always knew my luck would turn around someday. God gave me a second chance, and now I'm convinced I'm the luckiest person alive!"
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Klay Thompson all-talent template. Do you want to equip it now?]
"Equip it!"
Lian Dao replied ecstatically.
With a burst of red light, Klay Thompson's talent template was directly integrated into Lian Dao's USC No. 1 jersey.
But in reality, Lian Dao felt numb after the change, followed by an indescribable sense of comfort.
"The fusion is complete!"
After the initial numbness, he felt a bit dull. Lian Dao clicked his tongue, reminiscing about the feeling. He quickly checked his body but didn't notice any significant changes.
"Why do I feel that there is no change in my body?"
[Host, the talent template sets the upper limit of a player's attributes, not their current strength. If the host wants to check the change in the talent limit, check your status]
"Oh!"
Lian Dao understood.
"Status"

[Reminder: There is no increased upper limit because the host's upper limit is higher than the fusion player template. The value after the '+' belongs to the static talent bonus of the host. For example, the host's height and wingspan are better than Klay Thompson's. Therefore, after obtaining his upper limit of jumping talent, the host's rebounding talent upper limit will naturally be higher]
Originally, Lian Dao had some doubts, but after hearing the system prompt, he understood!
With his talent limits raised and over 20,000 points available, he felt it was time to make some significant improvements.
"Increase the speed to the maximum first!"
[Insufficient points]
Embarrassed, Lian Dao realized he had overestimated his points. Skills rated 80 and above required 10,000 points per point of improvement.
"Cough, cough. Hmm!" Lian Dao cleared his throat to hide his embarrassment.
Caught up in excitement, he forgot the cost of high-level improvements.
"How should these points be distributed?"
"Forget it, first increase the sprint speed and lateral speed to 79."
With limited points and many skills needing improvement, he had to prioritize. Improving the most urgent skills first seemed the best strategy.
After raising the overall speed to 79, he calculated that he would be left with only 3448 points.
"What I need most now is a breakthrough, so why don't I upgrade my breakthrough skills?"
"No, the proportion of breakthrough skills that depend on physical fitness skills is relatively large, and the maximum value can only be increased by 2."
Lian Dao's plan to exploit the system's loopholes was quickly shot down.
It seemed he would have to improve his physical talent skills honestly first!
