The basketball world is sending well wishes to Red Panda.

After the halftime performer (real name Rong Niu) suffered an injury during her act at the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup championship game July 1, Caitlin Clark gave her an impassioned salute on social media.

“Red Panda, we love you,” the Indiana Fever point guard said during an appearance on her teammate Sydney Colson’s Instagram Live stream shortly after the game. “If you’re watching, we love you.”

During Niu’s performance at the Fever’s game against the Minnesota Lynx in Minneapolis, the beloved entertainer—who is known for balancing dishware on her head while seated atop a unicycle—fell several feet from her perch and injured her wrist, according to ESPN. After attempting to walk off the court, she soon knelt back down, prompting a team of medics to tend to her and bring her a wheelchair to assist with her untimely exit.

In addition to performing at NBA and WNBA games for several years, Niu, 54, competed on season eight of America’s Got Talent in 2013 as well as season 18 of Britain’s Got Talent earlier this year. But her unique skill dates back much further, as she first began developing her act at age 7 under the training of her father, GuiZhang Niu.

“He said, ‘Always focus.’ He knew I get nervous,” she told Sports Illustrated in 2019. “He always told me that, just to think that all of those people come here to watch you. That means you are the king. You have to show that you are in power now.”

As a teenager, Niu toured the world with the Shanghai Acrobatic Troupe, during which time she developed a particular affinity for U.S. spectators.

“America, the audience gave me the most reaction,” she continued. “They’re very outgoing, very cheerful, even if I make a mistake.”
