CBA open-minded to player nationalization: Yao Ming

The Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) held a media day activity on Friday. Yao Ming, the president of the Chinese Basketball Association, responded to the rumor that China men's national basketball team will call up naturalized players. 　

Yao said that CBA is open-minded to nationalized players. "we can't completely do the same as the player naturalization in other sports, because the international sports federations have completely different naturalization rules for different sports, and it is entirely new for CBA. We hope to find out the right path in this matter," he said.
