“I understand.” After listening to Tang Tian, Walker suddenly felt as if a burden had been lifted, and he felt relaxed all over.

Perhaps only Tang Tian could help him resolve this worry.

According to Tang Tian's requirements, Walker began training to adjust his power exertion method.

This seemed like a simple matter, but in fact, because it involved personal habits, it couldn't be changed in a day or two.

After a three-day break, UConn returned to the home court to face Seton Hall University. This was also the second match between the two sides this season.

Walker wasn't in good shape, and Calhoun still didn't put him in the starting lineup.

But Walker didn't care. He was thinking more about how to help the team win.

The game started quickly, and Seton Hall University played extremely tenaciously. They ranked tenth in the league and were making their final efforts for the championship.

After more than nine minutes, the score on the field was 13 to 9, with UConn leading by a slight margin.

Calhoun then replaced Walker and Oriakhi, pushing Tang Tian to the small forward position.

After coming on, Walker asked Tang Tian to play pick-and-roll. After the switch, he broke through past the opponent's forward.

Watching Walker break through, the emotions of the fans at the scene were a bit complicated.

Before Walker's injury, the opponent's one-on-one defense against him was almost equivalent to giving away points, but in these two games after his return from injury, Walker's success rate was quite low. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was simply wasting offensive opportunities.

The opponent's forward also knew that Walker was in bad shape and tried his best to defend closely.

Walker suddenly made a large change of direction to the left to break through. Because he was sticking too close, the opponent didn't react at all.

Walker broke through to the left side and went for a layup, pulling the ball back after jumping to avoid the opponent's center's left-handed block, scoring the point.

"Beautiful!" The wonderful goal caused the commentators on the scene to exclaim in surprise.

The fans in the audience also burst into cheers. They seemed to have seen the familiar Walker again!

Walker was also a little excited after scoring the goal, roaring at the sidelines after the goal.

In Seton Hall University's attack, Oriakhi directly blocked the opponent's guard's shot. After Tang Tian grabbed the loose ball, he gave it to Walker, and Walker made a one-man fast break to the front court.

The opponent was chasing closely behind him.

However, Walker performed a beautiful behind-the-back dribble during the run, switched the ball to his left hand, took off with his left foot, and scored another drifting bank shot.

Four points in a minute!

The emotions of the fans at the scene instantly went wild. The Walker they were familiar with was back!

Walker took the initiative to find Tang Tian to high-five when retreating on defense.

"Kemba, he..." Ollie was stunned at this time. He didn't know how Walker suddenly regained his competitive state.

Calhoun, however, was looking at Tang Tian at this time.

He remembered what happened with Lamb before, and seeing Walker actively looking for Tang Tian after scoring, it seemed that the change in Walker's state was mostly related to him.

A person who can help teammates get out of their slump and gradually improve, is he very suitable to be the team captain?

For a moment, an idea flashed in his mind.

The game on the court continued, and Walker frequently broke through from the left side to score.

It should be known that Walker is not a left-handed player. His previous attacks were basically on the right side. After this sudden change, the defending players seemed very unaccustomed to it.

As a result, no one expected that Walker would lead the substitutes to play a wave of climax, directly helping UConn establish a double-digit lead and also helping the team finally win the game.

Walker still only played 20 minutes, but in these 20 minutes, he made 7 of 11 shots and scored 16 points, which was quite efficient.

Although he hadn't fully recovered to his pre-injury state, he had obviously regained his feel for the game.

After the game, Walker was warmly cheered by his teammates in the locker room.

Walker scored 16 points efficiently in this game, Lamb also had 20 points, and Tang Tian also scored 15 points. This was the first time they played like the Three Musketeers.

After the teammates had left one after another, Tang Tian and Walker went to the training hall to do extra practice again.

Tang Tian did his daily physical and shooting training, while Walker continued to do the power exertion adjustment training.

Tang Tian also acted as a semi-physical trainer, helping Walker adjust together.

A few days later, UConn hosted St. John's University at home.

St. John's University is one of the most well-known prestigious universities in the United States. Because it is located in Queens, New York, it is on par with Duke, Kentucky, and North Carolina. More than 50 NBA players have emerged from there.

Although they have never won an NCAA championship, they have always had considerable competitiveness in the Big East Conference. Now they are ranked sixth in the Big East Conference and are working hard to make it into the upper half.

Walker performed well in the last game, and Calhoun directly put him in the starting lineup.

After the game started, Tang Tian's pick-and-roll and Lamb's containment on the offensive end gave Walker, who returned to the starting lineup, a lot of one-on-one opportunities.

But he failed to seize the opportunity like in the previous game.

St. John's University is a New York team, and their coaching staff is also very strong. They obviously made targeted arrangements before the game, and the players focused on defending Walker's left-side breakthrough when defending.

Walker didn't dare to exert force with his right foot, and several breakthroughs failed.

UConn eventually lost to their opponents by a narrow margin of 59 to 63.

Walker's performance was relatively poor, scoring only 10 points and 3 assists on 3 of 13 shooting.

Two wins and two losses. This was UConn's record after Walker's comeback. Compared with the previous four-game winning streak, this was obviously not a very good result.

Moreover, in the final stage of the regular season, each team was fighting fiercely for ranking. After UConn lost this game, they dropped from second to third in the league.

Walker was in a very low mood after the game, and remained silent after returning to the locker room.

The atmosphere in the locker room was a bit depressing. The players took a shower and left one after another. Walker was still sitting there alone, draped in a bath towel and not even changing his clothes.

"Kemba, I know you want to win, but you have to learn to accept these things." Tang Tian didn't leave either. He waited until everyone else had left before coming to find Walker.

"Learn what?" Walker's emotions were a little agitated.

"I can't even lead the team to win now!" As he said that, he punched the locker hard.

The iron locker made a dull sound, making people feel a chill.

"Injury? I don't care! Playing badly after returning? I can adjust slowly! But now I'm just a burden to the team! I'm being targeted, the team is losing, why is this happening? Why!" As he said that, he punched the locker again, and the regret in his words was beyond expression.

Everyone has things they care about. What Walker cares about most is the win or loss of UConn's games. Generally, talented players would directly enter the draft after their freshman year. The reason why he stayed until his junior year was simply to help UConn return to its peak and fulfill his dream of winning an NCAA championship.
