Bowen, Marion visit
Two former National Basketball Association players Bruce Bowen and Shawn Marion showed up in Shanghai over the weekend to send their Chinese New Year wishes to some mentally handicapped children as part of the annual NBA Cares activities. NBA Cares has the tradition of inviting players to China around New Year’s time for charity-themed activities. During the interactions, Bowen and Marion played bowling and tried Chinese paper cutting with 35 mentally handicapped children and their families. Before the trip to Shanghai, the two players visited an NBA charity primary school in Neijiang City, Sichuan Province, on January 9. Bowen won three NBA titles with the San Antonio Spurs, who retired his No. 12 jersey. Marion was a four-time NBA All-Star and a one-time NBA champion, helping the Dallas Mavericks win their maiden and only title in 2011.
