Kobe to Attend the FIBA Basketball World Cup Draw in Shenzhen
The FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 Draw, presented by Wanda, will take place on Saturday, March 16, in Shenzhen, one of the eight host cities of FIBA's flagship competition.
American best-selling singer/songwriter Jason Derulo will team up with global sporting icon Kobe Bryant to headline a star-studded show at 18:30 local time (GMT +8).
Bryant, who was unveiled as a global ambassador of FIBA's flagship competition in October, will carry out the Draw, while Derulo - who has sold over 50 million singles worldwide, racked up over two billion views on YouTube and 1 billion plays on Spotify - will perform his biggest hits throughout the much-anticipated event, the highlight of a week-long celebration of basketball in one of the eight host cities of the biggest FIBA World Cup to date.
The FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 Draw will take place in Shenzhen Bay Arena and, for the first time ever, the event will be open to the public. Tickets will go on sale on Damai.cn, with prices ranging from RMB 280 to 1080.
Yao Ming - like Bryant, a World Cup global ambassador - will be among a host of stars and distinguished guests on hand to witness this important milestone on the Road to China 2019, which sets out the path for the 32 participating teams in their journey to be crowned world champions. The draw procedures will be made public in the days leading up to the event.
