"Da Zhi!!!"

"Da Zhi is back! Da Zhi is back!"

In late June 2000, a tall figure appeared in Beijing.

China Men's National Basketball Team training camp.

Wang Zhizhi!

A key reserve big man in the San Antonio Spurs' rotation, a powerhouse in the NBA Western Conference Finals!

The top backup for Duncan and David Robinson!

A Spurs rotation player, a floor-spacing big averaging 8+4 per game!

Da Zhi had returned to China.

After many years.

That young man who once chased the wind had finally reached a reconciliation with the Chinese Basketball Association through Mamba Sports' efforts.

Of course, there had been no shortage of deals involving interests.

But the result was that Wang Zhizhi, the strongest player in Chinese basketball, had returned to the national team!

China's basketball circle erupted!

Wang Zhizhi had returned from the NBA, basketball's highest stage!

He even trained with Kobe regularly!

China finally had an NBA-caliber player.

"This year! We have a world-class frontcourt!" China Men's National Basketball Team coach Jiang Xingquan was beside himself with excitement.

Wang Zhizhi paired with Yao Ming, the little giant from Shanghai Orient!

That frontcourt combination was simply terrifying!

What Wang Zhizhi did best was create scoring space for interior centers, and that was precisely what Popovich valued most about him. Whether paired with Duncan or the Admiral, Wang Zhizhi had always performed superbly!

China was going to rise this year!

Da Zhi's return had also completely crushed the rumors in China's sports world!

Da Zhi was not a traitor!

He said he was merely a young man who loved basketball and chased the wind!

When his country called, he was still that soldier who would charge forward without hesitation!

China's final roster: Centers: Wang Zhizhi (San Antonio Spurs), Yao Ming (Shanghai Orient), Bater (Beijing Shougang);
