After all, as Popovich said, both guards of the San Antonio Spurs and Hansen were in direct competition for the All-Star selections.
Hansen practiced for a while, then sat down to rest on the sidelines. Randolph also sat next to him, draping an arm around his shoulder and pointing at their figures on the LED screen, talking about how "popular" he was at the moment.
Hansen just smiled and watched Conley and the others warming up on the court, but he became curious about something.
"Zack, why did you choose number 50?"
"It's related to my high school coach," Randolph, now on good terms with Hansen, was happy to share his past.
"When I was tall and big as a kid, Coach Midley wanted me to join, so he invited me out to eat, and I ended up eating exactly 50 chicken legs."
Hansen was startled; he hadn't expected such an amazing story.
"What a pity."
"What?"
"You should have eaten five more chicken legs."
Randolph still didn't get it.
