Williamson, an explosive All-Star forward with the Pelicans, said the spectacular views and serenity on the Great Wall left him in awe that he'd visit it repeatedly as his escape should he live in Beijing.

"I would at least try to come here once a week if I lived here," Williamson said. "You can be dealing with anything; if you come out here, this is peace. This is what peace looks like."

"It was a great experience. I definitely see one of the Seven Wonders of the world. And the whole time I kept thinking to myself is that men built this and we only saw a small piece of it, so it was definitely exciting and I'm glad I got the experience."

Banchero echoed Williamson's sentiment, saying that it was "surreal" to be on the wall in person after having only heard of it for so long.

"I think the Great Wall of China is something that you hear about in school, but you never really think you ever go there. So I could have been there and walking on the wall was amazing. It was quite the walk; I didn't know that much of a workout, but it was a good activity," said the Magic's starting power forward.

The Jordan Brand stars started their China trip in Shanghai. They visited the Nike Shanghai campus to meet and greet employees, took boat rides along The Bund — a waterfront area and a protected historical district in central Shanghai — and attended a basketball park and dance battle hosted by the brand featuring Les Twins.
