Stephon Marbury Is Being Honored in China with His Own Postage Stamp
Stephon Marbury is absolutely killing it in China.
After leaving the NBA in 2009, Marbury joined the Chinese Basketball Association. He's been dominating the league since his arrival, leading the Beijing Ducks to three championships over the past four years. The 38-year-old earned the league's Finals MVP award after helping the Ducks take home the 2015 title.
Unsurprisingly, the people love him, and to show their appreciation, Marbury is being honored with his own postage stamp.
Yes, his face will be on mail.
Marbury discussed his latest accomplishment with Marc Berman of the New York Post:
"I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that people will be able to buy a stamp of me to mail packages anywhere in the world. I am truly humbled. Never did I imagine in all of my 38 years of living that I — a kid who grew up 7,000 miles away from Beijing and a kid who came from the projects of Coney Island — would have a stamp of myself. I can never have dreamed it.
"
Keep doing you, Stephon.
