Wu Guanxi (6'8'', 22 years old), who averaged 5.6 points 4.1 rebounds in the CBA, gets invited by Rockets for its Summer league team, reports Chinese media. this is what Wu Guanxi looks like
I wonder if it this is just a favor from the Les to Yao. It's more for training of a young promising player than him having a realistic shot of making the team or because of Les. Wu Guanxi is 22 years old center at 6'10" 225lb. He had only played with the Shanghai Sharks for one year, averaging 5.6 points, 4.1 rebound, 0.6 blocks in 12.5 minutes. Here's press release (in Chinese). http://www.shanghaisharks.cn/news/detail/2038267.html Wu Guanxi will be attending 'The Skills Factory' in Atlanta for 20 days of special training with 2 of his teammates. After the 20 day training session, he'll be headed to Houston for summer league. And while I was looking through some Chinese basketball stuff, I found this gem. How have I never heard of this.

Found an even better trailer here: http://english.cri.cn/7106/2013/11/26/2001s800554.htm
Guys Les is a business man. He makes a lot more money branding to the Chinese than he does to the Americans. I support any Chinese moves Les does because it simply shows how smart he is.
