Billboards, TV commercials, video game covers. These are the things NBA players get as perks of the job. If you're Stephon Marbury and you're playing in China they will make a musical about you, which is way cooler.
There’s going to be a Stephon Marbury musical in China
This is the best thing to happen to basketball and acting since “Space Jam.”


“I am Marbury” is set to debut in Bejing and is currently in production. What kind of songs are in a musical called “I am Marbury”? Well, brace yourself, because New Republic gave us a sneak peek, and it’s better than we ever could have imagined.
I am Marbury,” he intones. “You are Marbury. We are all connected.” After each line, a chorus of Chinese actors repeats the sentence in Mandarin. He goes on: “I am a champion. You are a champion. But it was all yesterday. We will never stop working hard. We will never be satisfied. We will always keep moving on.”
I AM MARBURY. YOU ARE MARBURY.
Great news everyone! We’re all Marbury. We’re waiting for a final track list before we get all giddy, but we really hope there’s a song called “Starbury Fields Forever.”
