[外電] USF's Lowhorn works toward pro goal
http://www.sacbee.com/2010/06/04/2797680/kings-notes-usfs-lowhorn-works.html
This isn't Dior Lowhorn's first time with the NBA draft process. He "tested
the waters" last year to see if he might be ready for the NBA after his
junior season at USF.
這並不是Lowhorn第一次參與NBA選秀,去年就有試過水溫。
After working out in Portland, Ore., and receiving an honest assessment of
his readiness, Lowhorn returned for a third standout season with the Dons.
在波特蘭測試,接收到很誠實關於他實力的評估後,Lowhorn就回Dons了。
Lowhorn, a three-time All-West Coast Conference selection, was among six
prospects to participate in Thursday's workout at the Kings' practice
facility. It was the first workout this spring for the 6-foot-7, 230-pound
Lowhorn.
他有三次被選為西岸第一隊,禮拜四也要一起到國王測試,這是他今年第一個測試,
他6'7,230磅。
After transferring from Texas Tech, where he played for Bob Knight as a
freshman, Lowhorn sat out a season and then led the WCC in scoring as a
sophomore and junior. As a senior, he was second in conference games and
third overall.
大一時他在Texas Tech,之後轉學了,有一個球季不能打,之後大二大三時在得分方面
領先全WCC。大四時,是全區第二,全國第三。
Though he was a consistent scorer for the Dons, Lowhorn learned last year
that there were areas in which he needed to improve if he wanted to make an
NBA roster.
雖然他是個穩定的得分點,但Lowhorn去年學會了如果他想要進入NBA,他必須在一些方面
有所進步。
"The main thing is working on my ballhandling and shooting and being able to
play (small forward)," said Lowhorn, a Berkeley High School product. "I
played a lot of (power forward). I've worked a lot on my ballhandling, and my
shooting has gotten a lot better."
「最主要的就是掌控球和投射還有能夠打SF,我過去都是打PF。我一直在掌控球的方面努
力,而我的投射已經好上許多」
Statistically, Lowhorn's first season was his best for the Dons. Lowhorn
averaged 20.5 points and 7.4 rebounds in 36.6 minutes during the 2007-08
season. Last season, he averaged 18.4 points and 6.7 rebounds in 28.8 minutes.
在數字方面,Lowhorn的第一個球季是他表現最好的一季。平均36.6分鐘得20.5分和7.4籃
板。上個賽季,平均28.8分鐘得了18.4分和6.7籃板。
Lowhorn views himself as an underdog. Gonzaga is the marquee team of the WCC,
and Saint Mary's had an impressive run in this year's NCAA Tournament, but
that's the extent of many people's knowledge about the conference.
Lowhorn認為自己被低估了。Gonzaga是WCC裡華麗的球隊,而且聖瑪麗在今年的NCAA有令人
印象深刻的表現,但那就是許多人對於這個分區的印象。
"Basically, whatever you did is the past, and you've got to start all over
again and prove yourself," Lowhorn said, "especially for me because I don't
have that buzz going into the draft."
「基本上,不管做過什麼都已經是過去式了,你必須重新開始然後去證明你自己,尤其我
又沒有大好聲勢」
Lowhorn was exposed to some good coaching during his college career. Besides
Knight, he played for Eddie Sutton, who coached the Dons for 19 games during
Lowhorn's first USF season.
Lowhorn在大學生涯遇過幾個不錯的教練,除了在騎士為Eddie Sutton打球外。
Lowhorn said he still has the notebook Knight made players keep and that he
enjoyed him, Sutton and his last coach, Rex Walters.
Lowhorn說他仍然留著騎士隊的筆記本。
"I've had some great coaches to learn from," Lowhorn said.
「我有過一些很偉大的教練可以去學習」
Summer plans – The Kings will not hold practice in Las Vegas before starting
summer league there next month.
國王在夏季聯盟開始前並不會在拉斯維加斯練習。
Instead, the team will practice in Sacramento before heading to Las Vegas.
The Kings will be there July 12-18 and play six games in seven days.
但球隊在前往拉斯維加斯之前會在沙城練習7月12到18將會待在那邊打六場比賽。
