Zhang Jiacheng, aged 14, is a one-armed boy who recently became an online star because of a short video of him playing basketball. Now, news on the boy has reached NBA player Stephen Curry.
“Who is this kid? Help me find him! He is so cute ,” posted Curry on Weibo. Later that day, Zhang replied to Curry, “Hello, Curry! I am a big fan of yours. I love you so much because you achieved a lot although you are not one of the big guys in the NBA.
Zhang also talked about his favorite CBA players Yi Jianlian of Guangdong and Guo Ailun of Liaoning. In fact, Yi had already noticed Zhang. Having shared his video, Yi posted on Weibo, “Your heart is always the strongest part of your body.” Yi’s former national teammate Zhu Fangyu also reposted the video, commenting (评论), “I have never seen any kid play basketball better than him. We want to invite him to visit our team.” Former CBA player Wang Jing spoke highly of his performance, “Your right hand has been taken away, but you have the most powerful left hand.”
His perfect moves make it even harder to believe that this kid learned these skills in less than two years. Be it rainy or windy, Zhang never stops playing basketball. He has posted 13 videos of him developing basketball skills and earned almost one million likes. “Give it a try, or give it up," Zhang believed.
