Last night, in the CBA arena, the Guangdong team challenged the Shanghai team away, and finally ended in defeat, and unfortunately injured Zhou Qi. It can be seen through the slow-motion replay that Zhou Qi sprained his knee in the game, although he left the game early
But fortunately, the injuries were not serious. This morning's news shows that after an MRI examination, Zhou Qi's injury is not serious, and his comeback will not take too long, which is really a lucky misfortune. Zhou Qi will soon be able to return to the ring, however,
There was one player who would never be able to set foot on the basketball court again. He is only 24 years old and a promising rising star named Gary Sojo. Socho is a key player in the Venezuelan men's basketball team, born in 1999, very young
Expectations were high for him. At 196 centimeters tall, Sojo began to make a name for himself a few years ago. At the 2019 South American Under-21 Championship, he represented the Venezuelan national youth team
Averaged 17 points per game6 points. Sojo has also crossed paths with the Chinese men's basketball team, having represented the Venezuelan national youth team against the Chinese men's basketball team in 2019. Sojo is physically strong, he can run and jump well, and his talent is outstanding
What's even more commendable is that he focuses on defense and always keeps an eye on the opposition's top scorer. There is no doubt that such an offensive and defensive player should challenge the NBA, and this has always been Sojo's dream. In the history of the NBA,
There weren't too many players from Venezuela, only two could be found. One is Oscar Torres, who briefly played for the Rockets and Warriors between 2001 and 2003;The other is Graves Vasquez,
He played for the Grizzlies, Hornets, Kings, Raptors, Bucks, and Nets from 2011 to 2017. Can Socho become Venezuela's third NBA player?He is very close to that goal.
Sojo began his career with the Caracas Coconut in Venezuela before switching to the Caracas Broncos a year later. In 2021, Sojo participated in the NBA Draft, and although unfortunately he was not selected, he was not discouraged, on the contrary,
He signed with the Mexico City team and played in the NBA Development League. After two seasons of experience, Sojo's stats are not outstanding, but he has made real progress. Finally, at this summer's Basketball World Cup,
Sojo has earned the respect of the people. For the Chinese men's basketball team, the 2023 Basketball World Cup is a bitter memory, but for Sojo, it is a great opportunity. He became part of the senior national team of Venezuela and played in three tournaments. The news of the sudden death of 24-year-old Venezuelan scoring champion Socho is shocking and saddening. He is a young and promising forward who averages 12 points per gameWith 4 points, he is the team's leading scorer, and his shooting percentage is as high as 431% and 36% three-point shooting. His performance was also very dazzling in the game, against the Finnish men's basketball team, he hit 7 of 13 shots, scored 20 points and 6 rebounds, and played his World Cup masterpiece. This kind of performance makes people believe that his future will be brighter, and it also makes people feel the hard work and sweat he has put into the basketball career. Now, however, everything has come to an abrupt halt. Sojo reportedly had a seizure at home and unfortunately died. The Venezuelan Basketball Federation issued a statement expressing deep condolences and regret for the loss of Socho, calling him an extraordinary figure and a member of the national team. Even though we've seen too many people come and go in basketball, Sojo's departure is still deeply saddened. He may only be a small character, but he has proved himself to be a positive person with his hard work and practical actions, he has never wasted time and talent, and has always worked hard to achieve his dreams, even if his efforts do not pay off in the end. There is no regret in life, and everyone's loss will bring different degrees of pain and emotion.
Sojo's departure has made us more aware of the fragility and preciousness of life. We should cherish everything in front of us, including our own lives and the loved ones around us. As we grow older, we no longer pursue a vigorous life as we did when we were young, but pay more attention to the meaning and value of life. Sojo's loss is not only a loss for the basketball world, but also a tragedy for his family. His passing has made us deeply realize the preciousness of life, and it has also made us reflect on how we should face difficulties and setbacks in life. Here, we would like to express our final condolences and farewell to Soccio, the 24-year-old Venezuelan scoring champion. May he be free from sickness in heaven and rest in peace!
