"The Youngest Player of the Month in History"
The American Cable Sports Network was the first to release this news.
Yesterday, rumors began circulating about the young prodigy who is a week away from turning 19 and potentially winning the Player of the Month award in his rookie season.
This morning, after receiving early information from the NBA, the American Cable TV Station, which owns the New York Knicks, announced it first.
Initially, some were skeptical because the NBA had not officially announced the award yet.
January 1, 1996, the new year has arrived.
At 9 a.m. on the first day of the new year, during the routine press conference, the NBA officials invited numerous Chinese and Asian media outlets, and David Stern personally announced: Lakers rookie power forward Zhang Hao, has won the Player of the Month and Rookie of the Month for December 1995!
