Stephon Marbury on Wang Zhelin, an 18-year-old Chinese young talent: "He's really good, he'll definitely be an NBA player one day. He need to improve his strength, but he's only 18 years old. He has to train hard, train with the right people and train smart." Bifenpai

The decision was probably for the best: Given his National Team selection, and now his historic performance in Portland, those expectations are only going to increase. Though he’s practically a no-shot to make the final 12-man roster for this summer’s London Olympics, his inclusion in the Senior National Team setup indicates that the CBA feels he’ll be a big part of China’s basketball future. And in the days after Portland, he may be a big part of China’s future in the NBA. Arguably more than any other prospect, he helped his NBA Draft stock the most. Even before the game, he was turning heads during practices due to his good frame and nice touch around the rim. NiuBBall.com
