NBA gathers outstanding players from all over the world. It is every player's dream to enter the NBA to play. Unfortunately, there are only a handful of Chinese players who have entered the NBA to play. Only Wang Zhizhi, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi and so on. It's not that the Chinese players are technically inadequate, but this is generally true across Asia. Because of geographical location, black people are generally tall and strong. Even if the yellow people can reach the height, their body cannot be compared with the black people. The white people are in between.
But even so, it still does not affect the Chinese players to leave a strong mark in the NBA. Yao Ming was selected into the 2016 Nai Smith Basketball Hall of Fame and became the first Chinese to receive this honor. Although the achievements of Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian can not be compared with Yao Ming, they also performed well in the NBA. During the NBA career, do you know how many points Wang Zhizhi, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian scored? How many points did Zhou Qi score in his NBA career? The strength gap is obvious at a glance!
Yao Ming’s strength and achievements are beyond doubt, not only recognized by domestic fans, but also recognized by the NBA League, as evidenced by his selection into the Hall of Fame. Yao Ming has been selected to the NBA All-Star lineup eight times during his years of playing in the NBA. From this one can imagine Yao Ming's strength. During his NBA career, Yao Ming scored 9,247 points, and none of the Chinese fans who have ever played in the NBA can compare with them. Today, Yao Ming has become the chairman of the CBA company and the chairman of the Chinese men's basketball team, leading the Chinese men's basketball team to continue to forge ahead.
Compared with Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian's performance is slightly worse, but it can also be described as "legendary". Because of his good physical fitness, coupled with his ability to endure hardships and excellent skills, Yi Jianlian has become a good player in the NBA. Yi Jianlian scored 2148 points during his NBA career, becoming the second only to Yao Ming. Today, Yi Jianlian is still galloping in the CBA arena and has helped Guangdong Hongyuan win the championship many times. He can be regarded as the first Chinese men's basketball player. Although Yi Jianlian is 33 years old, his physical fitness is still good, and playing for a few more years is definitely not a problem.
As China's first player to enter the NBA, Wang Zhizhi is worthy of recognition. Wang Zhizhi scored 604 points during his NBA career, which is also quite a good result. Today, Wang Zhizhi has become the coach of the Bayi Men's Basketball Team and continues to dedicate his blood to basketball. Speaking of Zhou Qi, I believe that everyone hates iron but steel, and his performance in the China Men's Basketball World Cup has been frantically complained by domestic fans. Zhou Qi played in the NBA for several years, his performance was also unsatisfactory, only scoring 24 points.
