Video: Watch Highlights of MVP Yi Jianlian at the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship

CHANGSHA-HUNAN (2015 FIBA Asia Championship) – Yi Jianlian provided plenty of points, rebounds and inspiration for China at the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship and was named as the tournament’s Most Valuable Player.

A member of the senior national side since 2004, when he played for the Chinese at the Athens Olympics and helped them go on a memorable run to the Quarter-Finals, Yi had arguably his finest hour this month to help the Far East giants qualify for the Rio de Janeiro Games.

Yi blocked four shots in China’s 70-57 win Semi-Final win over Iran and he made a lot of jump shots and free throws throughout the tournament while averaging 16.7 points per contest.

What the fans of China will probably savor the most when they look back on the competition will be Yi’s rim-rocking dunks that set the FIBA Asia Championship alight.
