Streetball is the raw and raucous version of pro basketball. Games run short and sharp, players sub in and out, and trash-talking is encouraged. Beijing’s Dongdan basketball courts are the spiritual homeland of streetball in China. For 10 Sundays every summer, players sweat it out for bragging rights and street cred in the now famous Sunday Sunset tournaments. And the man who started it all is 35-year-old Wu You, who’s been spreading the streetballing hype across China for the past 15 years. #china #streetball #basketball If you liked this video, we have more stories about the sports scene in China, including: How Did the NBA Piss Off an Entire Country? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_PSIH3nl2g Why the World’s Best Dragon Boaters Are Women Farmers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hH6MPvyipUA **FOLLOW US ON IG, TWITTER, AND FACEBOOK: https://ift.tt/2NFsuzJ http://twitter.com/goldthread2 https://ift.tt/2MHf0Ut Producers: Venus Wu and Joel Roche Videographer: George Zhi Zhao Narrator: Joel Roche Editor: Joel Roche Mastering: Joel Roche Music: Audio Network
