on october 1, 2024, beijing time, on the nets’ new season media day, chinese player cui yongxi accepted an interview with the media.

cui yongxi said: "now in china, there are many, many students who want to play basketball, but you have to do your homework first. you have to put your studies first. your family doesn't want you to play basketball, so you shouldn't go. play professional basketball. they will think, 'if you play basketball, you will have no future. ' but i think the path i took is: i will focus on basketball."

“i didn’t have much because my family wasn’t rich. my dad was a street basketball player. so i worked hard from a young age and played basketball until i got to where i am today. but for students, if you want to play basketball, just play it. if you want to play professional basketball, you have to try to go out and get into the ncaa step by step. you will succeed."

this summer, cui yongxi signed a two-year contract with the nets. (sohu sports editor: js)
