Chapter 1: I Will Defeat Curry.
"Han, tomorrow you'll be facing Stephen Curry. What do you have to say about that?"
At the press conference for Barry University's season opener, an NCAA reporter directed a question to Hansen.
Though Hansen had yet to play in a single game for the team, he was the only player from Barry University who had been a four-star high-school recruit.
Hansen shifted in his seat, propped his elbow on the table, and said:
"I will defeat him."
As soon as he said this, everyone in the room immediately turned to look at him.
How could Hansen dare to say such a thing?
Leaving aside that Barry University was just a Division II team, they had finished last season with a dismal 2-16 record.
On the other hand, Davidson College, led by Curry, had reached the Elite Eight in the NCAA's "March Madness" tournament the previous season.
Even the reporter who had asked the question was stunned. He had just expected some compliments for Curry from Hansen.
"Are you saying you'll defeat the league's top shooter?" the reporter asked, recovering from his surprise.
