Sounds like Oregon may try adding Chinese G Wei Lin for this upcoming season.

This would be great. Nice to see coaches going international route. Good to mix it up, since we swung and missed so much in the portal.

Dope. If we can land him, these last few international pickups certainly help redeem what I would consider a fairly poor transfer portal year for the Ducks. I do like Simpkins and Stewart, but we missed on probably on many handfuls of guys we targeted first.

Sounds like he's registered for classes for the fall term. A commit will almost certainly happen.

Hopefully he can qualify, because he can play some basketball! If the kid on the Blazers is any indication, Chinese kids might be a bit of a gold mine right now.

6ft 3in, 175lbs. isn’t tiny, but next to Shelstad at 6ft, 170lbs, that’s a pretty light backcourt. Hopefully he comes with some of Shelstad’s quickness and defensive tenacity.

How does the CBA compare to NCAA talent-wise? Based on the highlights, this dude was running circles around the competition over there

It's not good. Anyone know how many years he has?
