BYU men's basketball great Jimmer Fredette, the 2011 Consensus National Player of the Year, will be featured on ESPN’s Outside the Lines Sunday morning at 9 a.m. EDT.

The Outside the Lines episode will chronicle Fredette’s journey from BYU to playing in China this past season. See a trailer for the episode below.

In China this season, Fredette starred for the Shanghai Sharks and was named the Chinese Basketball Association International Most Valuable Player. He was also an all-star and won the 3-point contest during the all-star festivities. Fredette led the league in scoring at 37.6 points per game and added 8.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.6 steals per game.

For the season, Fredette shot 52.9 percent from the field, 39.6 percent from 3 and 93.3 percent from the free-throw line. He also made a team-best 186 3-pointers. Fredette and the Sharks, owned by former NBA star Yao Ming, finished tied for second in the league with a record of 30-8. Shanghai was eliminated in the first round of the CBA playoffs.
