YouAi-Zhe, the star guard of National Chengchi University, successfully led his team to win the UBA championship for four consecutive years. Instead of choosing to play in the Taiwan professional basketball league post-graduation, he made a significant move by joining the Japan B1 League with Shiga Lakestars. This marks a remarkable achievement as the first UBA graduate to ascend directly to a top-tier Japanese basketball league team, with the potential to challenge for the Rookie of the Year title. Playing with the same jersey number 7 as in university to signify his family's presence, YouAi-Zhe expressed gratitude for the opportunity, signing a one-year contract as an Asian import player with a salary equivalent to a foreign player. His former coach mentioned that YouAi-Zhe had always been destined to play abroad, and they look forward to his competition in Japan. With the support of many, YouAi-Zhe's journey in Japan begins, heralding a new chapter in his career.
