Now this is good news for Freestyle fanatics all over the world—that is, if it’s true and not just some rumor to generate publicity for the online sports game.
Here’s an (edited) excerpt of the “rumor” from reliable online game portal 17173:
On the afternoon of April 14th, we received word that a famous NBA star will enter into an agreement with Freestyle Basketball. The star’s image will appear in the next version of the game and give players an opportunity to virtually interact with the NBA star.
The Chinese operator of Freestyle Basketball usually likes to use stars to present the game including Pan Weibo and Jay Chou. Some players who got wind of the news are guessing that the mystery NBA player is Yi Jianlian or Ba Dier.
Very iffy but very promising. I just hope Freestyle doesn’t turn into an NBA Live wannabe.
Oh, and for those who are going to ask if the mysterious NBA star will appear in other servers of Freestyle, the answer is “I have no freaking idea.”
