Signing contract! Grassroots counterattack! Kawamura Yuki announces his return to the NBA

As the saying goes: Those who have ambition will succeed!

There is no doubt that this statement can be said to be very appropriate for the dream-chasing boy and Japanese player Yuki Kawamura! Because he is only 1.73 meters tall, he has gained a chance to play in the NBA with his never-give-up spirit! Before this, when everyone heard that Yuki Kawamura was going to compete in the NBA, he almost generally regarded his idea and decision. Because the NBA is a world where people are as tall as a forest, and a height like him who is not outstanding among ordinary people, what can Kawamura Yuki use to compete with people who are often about two meters tall?

But what is incredible is that Yuki Kawamura, who is at a serious disadvantage in height, actually played in the NBA! In the just-passed 2024-25 season, Kawamura Yuki played 22 regular season games for the Memphis Grizzlies, averaging 4.2 minutes per game, scoring 1.6 points, 0.5 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 0.1 steals, shooting percentage of 36.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 30.4%, and free throw shooting percentage of 77.8%. Although Kawamura Yuki did not get the Grizzlies' contract extension at the end of the season and became a complete free agent, through his outstanding summer league games, he has finally won a two-way contract and announced his return to the NBA league, thus completing an amazing grassroots counterattack! On July 20, according to ESPN's famous reporter Shams, a league source revealed that Japanese defender Yuki Kawamura has agreed to sign a two-way contract with the Chicago Bulls. At this point, Kawamura Yuki will officially become a Bulls player, and he will start a new chapter in his career in Chicago in the new season!

There is no doubt that the two-way contract provided by the Chicago Bulls for Yuki Kawamura is extremely precious to him! Because after the start of this summer league, Kawamura Yuki's goal is to use Summer League as a springboard to win a two-way contract in the league. Now, he has successfully impressed the Bulls management with his outstanding performance in the summer league, and finally won a two-way contract he had dreamed of and was able to return to the NBA stage.

This summer, Kawamura Yuki played a total of 5 summer league games for the Chicago Bulls, averaging 23.8 minutes per game, scoring 9.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 2.2 steals, shooting percentage of 40.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 39.1%, and free throw shooting percentage of 81.8%. In the final game of Xia Lian that ended yesterday, Yuki Kawamura defeated all sides to play the strongest performance of Xia Lian. He played for 26 minutes on the bench, made 6 of 11 shots, 6 of 9 three-pointers, 2 free throws, 20 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 steals, with a plus-minus value of +16 in the whole game. Under Kawamura Yuki, the Chicago Bulls finally defeated the Utah Jazz 105-92, ending all the trips to this summer league with three consecutive victories.

There is no doubt that the reason why the Chicago Bulls wanted to provide Kawamura Yuki's two-way contract was because Kawamura Yuki's outstanding performance in the summer league touched them, and they believed that the young man in front of them deserved their chance! With Yuki Kawamura signing a two-way contract with the Bulls, he has temporarily settled in the NBA. Next, what Kawamura Yuki has to do is to convert his two-way contract into a formal contract as much as possible so that he can stay in Chicago and play for the Bulls.

In Kawamura Yuhui, we see how powerful the power of dreams is! He used his tenacious fighting spirit to tell us all that even if the whole world is questioning you, you must believe that you can do it. As long as you still have a dream in your heart, you must strive to pursue it. Even if you fall, even if you fall, you must be fearless! Because, anyone with dreams is amazing!

Congratulations to Kawamura Yonghui for his counterattack and winning the Bulls' two-way contract! May you shine in Chicago and become a regular contract! Come on, Kawamura Yuki! Come on, dream chaser!
