Nets' Yi Jianlian Targeted In Age Investigation

NBA player Yi Jianlian is being investigated by a Chinese-language magazine which claims he is one of many of the country's athletes guilty of lying about their age on official documents. Yi, who plays for the New Jersey Nets, has long been reported in the Chinese media to be older than his records show. Earlier this month, China's Sports Ministry reported that it found 36 players in China's professional basketball league whose dates of birth may have been changed.

Wow..seems to be a major trend from China.

 

They are all underage!!!!

:moe:

 

Uh o! Busted?

 

I hope this doesn't turn out to be anything. I like this guy and his contributions to the nets team

 

I love it when this sort of stuff happens seriously how can you one day claim to be say 26 then the next be 20

Like when Newcastle signed Obafemi Martins thinking he was 22 but hes actually 27
