There's always at least one freakish athlete whose measurements steal the show at the NBA's annual draft combine. This year's physical marvel appears to be 20-year-old Chinese big man Zhou Qi.

The 91.75-inch wingspan would be the 12th-longest in Draft Express' 29-year pre-draft measurements archive.
Zhou Qi has already played two professional seasons for the Xinjiang Flying Tigers, leading the Chinese Basketball Association in blocks in both of those campaigns.
