The Lakers introduced rookie Sun Yue to the media on Wednesday just a couple of days after he arrived in the United States, according to Los Angeles Times.

"The Lakers helped me make my dream come true, so it feels good," Sun said in rough English.

General Manager Mitch Kupchak was surprised with the fanfare Sun received in L.A.

"Quite frankly, this is a very unusual turnout for a player who was drafted two years ago who we hope to be on this team for many, many years to come," Kupchak said. "The fact remains, though, he has to earn his way onto this club."

Sun signed a two-year deal with the Lakers in August.
