China named a 12-man line-up on Saturday for the upcoming Asian Basketball Championships (ABC) headed by New Jersey Nets' forward Yi Jianlian.
Yi, 22, is expected to fill the giant shoes left by NBA all-star Yao Ming who is nursing an injury to his left foot. He will be assisted by Sun Yue, who was waived by the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, and fellow former NBA player Wang Zhizhi.
The ABC begins on Thursday in Tianjin.
