The 2.12-meter forward (前锋) from Shenzhen played his second game for the Milwaukee Bucks (密尔沃基雄鹿队) last Wednesday. His 12 points helped Milwaukee to a 93-88 win over Utah Jazz. In his first outing for Milwaukee he hadn't played well. This time he did much better.     
Both Yi and his team agree that he has to get used to life in the NBA. Yi said he had "a lot of bad habits to overcome".             But the support the 19-year-old is getting from Milwaukee fans will encourage the young man.
