The NBA is one of the most global sports business leagues, and more and more international stars are entering the NBA, which has forced American local stars to let go of their past arrogance and prejudice. In the past seven seasons, all NBA regular season MVPs have been won by international stars (3 Jokic, 2 Antetokounmpo, 1 Great Emperor, and 1 Alexander), which makes American local stars even more ashamed. Jandukuha is old, Tatum Zion is seriously injured, and Flag is just a rookie. They are not enough to compete with the popular MVP column composed of Jokic + Antetokounmpo + Alexander + Doncic. Which American local star can stand up to break the monopoly of international stars in the MVP selection? I will choose 24-year-old No. 1 pick Edwards.

Huazi is the top scorer in 2020 and has just celebrated his 24th birthday. In the first five seasons of his career, Huazi realized his talent step by step, growing from a young and frivolous No. 1 pick to a new generation of little wolf kings, with both strength and temperament. In these 5 seasons, Huazi has been selected into the All-Star lineup three times and the second team of the year twice. As early as the summer of 2023, he signed a five-year maximum salary contract of US$245 million. Not only that, Huazi also led the Timberwolves to the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive seasons, and the Timberwolves touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals last time back to the distant era of the Old Wolf King Garnett.

Huazi's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but his playing style is getting better and better. When he first entered the league, Huazi was outstanding with his physical fitness, and his various dunks were dazzling, and his poor projections were criticized; but last season, Huazi turned into a top scorer in the league. Huazi played in 79 regular season games, averaging 27.6 points + 5.7 rebounds + 4.5 assists + 1.2 steals per game, setting a career high. According to statistics from the NBA official website, Huazi made a total of 320 three-pointers last season, surpassing Beasley (319 points), Curry (311 points) and others to rank first in the league. In the words of fans, this incredible transformation is the most valuable quality for young stars.

According to NBA official website statistics, among the current league's under-24-year-old stars scored 40+, Huazi ranked first in the league 19 times, surpassing Jaylen Green (9 times), Thomas (9 times), Maxi (6 times) and Ben Kairo (6 times). At the same time, US media recently selected the NBA's new season shooting guard list. Hua Zi also ranked first in the league, surpassing Mitchell, Jaylenway, Jaylen Brown, Booker, Sheero, Amen Thompson, Hart, Reeves, Laven and others. Considering Huazi's absolute core position in the team and his crazy three-point output, he is indeed one of the best shooting guards in the NBA today. If Huazi can further improve his scoring stability, he will definitely have a chance to hit the regular season scoring champion in the new season.

In this offseason, the Timberwolves successfully renewed their contract with Randall, Reed, Clark and others, retaining the team that entered the Western Conference Finals. Obviously, they will start with the West Final and strive to go further. This means that the little wolf king Huazi has to take on more responsibilities, and he is also ready for it. Just today, the Timberwolves released a photo of Huazi performing strength training, with the caption: Over time. It is not difficult to see that Huazi once again grew muscle madly, and became a devilish and muscle-brained man. His back, which covered the sky and the sun, was the strongest backing for the Timberwolves to make a comeback.

For Huazi, it is a long way to go to the championship, but it is just around the corner to hit the MVP. Showing the MVP battle in the new season, Alexander, Jokic and Doncic are the hottest candidates, and Huazi also has his own advantages. Compared with Alexander and Jokic, Huazi's playing style is more popular and there is no aesthetic fatigue; compared with Doncic, the Timberwolves' lineup is more stable and has advantages, and the record will be Huazi's plus point. To sum up, the new season may be a bumper year for Huazi. He not only has the opportunity to hit the scoring champion, but also has the opportunity to break the monopoly of international stars over MVP. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
