description: "Ding Yanyuhang is a Chinese former professional basketball player. He is considered to be one of the greatest Chinese basketball players and scorers of his generation, and was set to join the NBA after a successful showing with the Dallas Mavericks in the 2017 NBA Summer League at the age of 23. However, repeated knee injuries sidelined him from play after stellar CBA seasons in 2016-17 and 2017-18, where he won back-to-back CBA MVPs. This included a magnificent run in the 2018 CBA playoffs, where he scored an average of 29.8 PPG. Through June 2018 to October 2021, Ding was recovering from a string of foot and knee injuries and was out for over 1200 days without professional basketball. Along with Xu Yong, Ding Jinhui, and Wang Lei, Ding Yanyuhang is regarded as one of China's \"lost talents\" in men's basketball in the 21st century due to injury."
