NBA superstar Kawhi Leonard joins China's rural basketball craze in Guangzhou's Nansha

South | Updated:2025-09-01

In late August, NBA superstar Kawhi Leonard made a surprise appearance at Tanzhou Court in Dagang Town, Nansha District, Guangzhou, which has witnessed the transformation of this small town.

What draws Kawhi Leonard to Dagang? You may not know that Dagang's basketball scene has a history of over 100 years. Today's site, Tanzhou Court, was founded in 1970, and has witnessed generations of Dagang basketball lovers.

Dagang not only thrives with amateur basketball, since last year, it has also launched a year-round cultural tourism IP: "spring cherry blossom viewing," "summer basketball excitement," "autumn harvest celebrations," "winter flower market strolls," creating a distinctive activity matrix. This initiative elevates the town's visibility, and further internationalizes Nansha.
