Raymond reports that Shane Battier was the guest of honor at an “NBA Big Bandwagon” event at the Wuhan International Convention Centre Square.

Shane acted as the judge for a dunking contest, was an award presenter for the slam dunk champion, and announced the winners of a cheerleading contest.

The next day (September 1st), Shane went to a temporary settlement area for the earthquake survivors in Dujiangyan of Sichuan, and together with China Peak donated RMB 200K worth of clothing and sports equipment to the youngsters there.

He also demonstrated to the youngsters his 3-point shooting, as well as gave some basketball lessons to young players from the Sichuan provincial team.

A young earthquake survivor (and a fan of Shane’s) who had both of his feet amputated due to the earthquake was there for a 3-versus-3 basketball game between the Sichuan provinical team and a team from the high school of Dujiangyan.
