    Does he shave his chest?

    I thought their coaches didn't allow them to dunk in China.

    I think someone earlier mentioned he's the kid who was drafted this year in the 2nd round and then traded to Denver, but not allowed by China to head over to the NBA yet. I think he's like 17 or 18 years old or something. Any CBA fans know?

    To add to what Quakes said, the kid's name is Xue Yuyang and he's 7'0 tall. You can read more about him here:

    You're right. Around the same age as Yao. Probably extremely raw.
