A video of a 20-year-old man playing basketball in an apron outside a grocery store in southern China’s Guizhou province has gone viral on the country’s social media. Shi Xuenian is a college student majoring in physical education who aspires to be a professional player. Since he was 10, he has followed his idol Kobe Bryant’s training routine, waking up every day at 4.30am to practise. Although he says his height prevents him from turning pro, he hopes to help other potential players in the future.
