Among middle schoolers, it would have been absurd if he did not win MVP.
Wang Shiying was not as dazzling as Wang Shiyu.
He averaged only 11 points per game.
But whenever it came to critical moments, putting him on the court always produced miraculous results.
This left the domestic coaches baffled. Wang Shiying did not seem particularly diligent in training, nor did he appear to have much talent, yet whenever a critical moment arrived, he could always make key shots.
