Chapter 29 The Blizzard

Gan Guoyang had more to be commended for than just this one thing.

In the 1987 draft, the Trail Blazers picked Chinese player Song Tao, making him the second Chinese player to enter the NBA.

Unfortunately, Song Tao collided with Sun Fengwu during a warm-up match, fell from the air, and his knee slammed into the ground, shattering into several pieces, resulting in severe injury.

Upon receiving this terrible news, Gan Guoyang immediately arranged for Song Tao to come to America for treatment, locating the best orthopedic specialist in the US, Dr. Wagner, who had designed the surgery plan for Bill Walton, to operate on Song Tao.

After a successful surgery, Song Tao stayed in America for rehabilitation. Gan Guoyang instructed him to make sure his injury was fully healed and not to worry about the cost.
