Kobe Bryant with Wu Chun and Jay Chou at the basketball charity game

Guess what? Our very own superstar Wu Chun was recently in a basketball which featured an NBA Star Kobe Bryant. It didn't take long after the Olympics for Kobe Bryant to get back on the court. He played in the 2nd Annual Sprite China Charity Basketball Game in Shanghai and he still showed why he's one of the best players in the world.

The tournament itself raised about RMB2.6 millions for charity and about 15,000 spectators showed up at the arena.

For your info, Sprite and Coca-Cola belonged to the same sister company. Kobe Bryant is one the endorsors for Sprite in USA while Wu Chun is the one of the endorsors for Coca Cola in China and most artistes from Sprite and Coca-Cola family are invited which included another celebrity Jay Chou.

Some of the Chinese basketball players consisted of those who played in the recent London Olympics. The USA owner and director for Coca-Cola and Sprite were in the team as well. This year Wu Chun was fortunate to be in the same team with Kobe unlike last year he was in the opposition team. Kobe didn't play the first half but he played the whole 2nd half and they won the game 87-82.

Kobe didn't play the first half but he play the whole 2nd half! We won the game 87-82.

Up, up and away...

Quote from Wu Chun - "It was a very meaningful experience as we had the chance to raise funds for charity and I had the opportunity to play with Kobe for the 2nd time. I just can't believe that he can actually remember me and he told me that it was great to see me again! I also prepared his USA olympic jersey and he was kind enough to autograph on it and I am going to hang it at the wall of Fitness Zone!

He only played in the 2nd half so whenever I get the ball, I just passed it to him because its showtime for him and I know everyone can't wait to see him showcase his skills and the most enjoying part is the synergy and teamwork that we have created and watching him doing all the highflying slam dunk moves right in front of my eyes!
