Error 192

Eventually, it was Hector's turn to make his appearance. The cheers from the stage reached their climax when he took the microphone.

"Thank you!" was Hector's first words. "Without you, he wouldn't have the Sacramento Kings today. I'm happy to play here, fighting side by side with you is the greatest honor of my life.  »

Who dares to speak to please fans? Every word comes from the bottom of his heart. Fans are the driving force of a player.

"This is the second trophy in our history and the first in Sacramento. It is also the first parade that Sacramento has organized in this honor. I am a soldier who has sworn loyalty to this city, and I can say we will return next season, the sequel to the next episode!  We will go to war again. We will have the NBA behind our backs this time, but we will be the hunters! Let them run. We, the Sacramento Kings, will stay at the top!  »

Hector's speech turned the NBA league preparing for the Draft upside down. He is a discreet, well-known character, but the Kings have the strength and stability to be at the top. Those last words drove Sacramento fans crazy.

The atmosphere of war mobilization corresponds to the situation. The second? The third? With Hector, it's not impossible.

The Sacramento Kings' O'Brien Trophy brought happiness to this city. Hector scored the season and is destined to belong to the Sacramento Kings this summer.

After dining with the mayor of Sacramento at the City Hall restaurant on the night of the Champions Parade, the Kings' 2025-2026 season is truly over.

Hector's return to Mexico is royal. He was filmed at the airport, so reporters were aware of his arrival, and so were the fans. Mexico City International Airport was packed when the denial leaked to social media.

After an hour of battle with the fans, he could leave the airport "alive."

Hector's popularity is at the top worldwide, and there is money on his head. Sponsors who want to sign contracts should know that Hector's market value has multiplied in two months.

An MVP title and an NBA title make a considerable difference in treatment. In some sponsorship contracts, these clauses must be reached to receive more money. These clauses of several Hector contracts have been lifted.

Apart from FIBA, he won everything as a basketball player. It only lacks the Basketball World Cup and the Olympic Games. Speaking of the Olympic Games, he is currently meeting with the President of the Mexican Olympic Committee, Maria José Alcala Izguerra, and the Secretary of Foreign Relations of Mexico, Marcelo Ebrard.

"Welcome back, champion. Mexico is proud of you," said Maria, a former Olympic diver.

"It's been a long time, Hector. How are you, champion?" said Marcelo. The two have known each other for a few years, and he has rendered many services to Hector.

"Tired, you know the fans are too powerful. I'm just an NBA champion. My job is less stressful than you politicians.  Maria nodded. Top athletes once too famous do not have an easy life.

Hector is probably the most famous Mexican in the world, and it is normal for him to have a headache once he returns to Mexico City. There is a target on his head, and vultures seek him.

"Hector, I'm on behalf of the president. He thanks you for your contribution not only as an athlete but also as a mediator.  Marcelo said. It's time to talk about serious things, and Hector is intelligent. He knows what he's about.

"We got the news. It is not officially declared, but no, we succeeded.  Maria continued enthusiastically.

"I would be in my thirties by then, but I would proudly represent the nation," Hector said confidently. The ultimate goal of his career has just been formalized in his mind; to achieve it, all sacrifices are worth it.

"I would make sure to bring back the gold medal. Failure is not allowed. Not with us anyway.  »

For four years, Hector has been working behind the scenes on a plan proposed by Marta to Marcelo when he took office as minister—obtaining the Olympic Games in 2036 or 2040. To get Hector's help, he insisted on 2036, which was non-negotiable. He's not sure he'll be on the ground in 2040.

Taking advantage of his links with the football world, he presented the file of Mexico's candidacy filed in 2023. The President of Tanzania and Hector are excellent partners and have been able to persuade African countries. The support of the United States and Central America has played a role, but thanks to Hector, the African continent supports Mexico.

India decided to focus on 2040 in exchange for the support gathered by Hector and was able to buy a football team, thanks to the help of the Indian government. The India SuperLeague is still developing, and the enthusiasm of football enthusiasts in India is growing.

It is a good investment location for Hector, and thanks to his boss, Vivek, his connections in India have brought money to Hector. Thanks to the sale of his signature shoes.

It's a deal where the Mexicans win, the Indians don't suffer losses, and Hector eats his piece of the pie by building influential connections. Hector's identity is no longer just an NBA player.

His influence extends beyond basketball.
