Two days later, Old Nelson once again led his team to Phoenix.
The large contingent of over thirty people rode on a bus to their pre-booked hotel.
By the time they arrived at the hotel, it was already evening.
Outside the hotel, reporters who had heard the news had gathered behind a security cordon, snapping photos of the entire Mavericks team.
"Da Zhi!"
There were quite a few Chinese reporters in the crowd, craning their necks and shouting.
Wang Zhizhi, who was wearing a backpack, slowed his pace and waved to the shouting reporters before hurrying into the hotel after his teammates.
The last ones off the bus were the members of the coaching staff.
Old Nelson wore a grim expression. After getting off the bus, he glanced at the swarming reporters, patted Little Nelson, who was behind him, on the back, pointed toward the press, and motioned for him to go ask about Hardaway's condition.
To this point, the Suns hadn't announced whether Hardaway would return for tomorrow's game.
