Li Yueru in fiba's eyes: world-class superstars are growing!
When I opened the FIBA website to gather information, a large picture across the entire screen came into view:
The angelic girl in the red Chinese team uniform and with a pill head was smiling at me.
This is the women's basketball center Li Yueru, who occupies most of the first page of the FIBA official website, corresponding to the title:
Fan Vote: Who is the best young center in the world women's basketball team?
Yes, in the eyes of FIBA, Li Yueru is the representative of the young center of the world women's basketball team!
Also the world-class superstar of the future!
What is the annoyance of happiness! Li Yueru and Han Xu were also listed by FIBA as the world's best young center forward candidates!
FIBA writes:
"The World Cup qualifiers in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, were played by only eight teams, including only four teams in Group B, but three of them were the best rising star centre-forwards on the planet.
Between Iliana Rupert in France, Li Yueru and Han Xu in China's Twin Towers, there is no more difficult choice than deciding who is the best. After the first game, their performances caused a sensation to highlight why they would be the future leaders in FIBA competitions. On Sunday, they will face each other directly in the much-anticipated Sino-French women's basketball team "Titans War". “
FIBA has his reason for listing the three of them as the world's best young center candidates, and after 2 rounds of matches, the data of the 3 people are:
(1) Li Yueru (height 200cm, 22 years old):
Against Nigeria: 8-of-11 shooting, 3-of-3 from the free throw line, 19 points and six rebounds.
Against Mali: 8-of-14 shooting, 5-of-6 from the free throw line, 21 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals.
FIBA commented: "As a traditional insider, Li Yueru likes to work in a low position, and her tall figure is a huge advantage, but she is also much faster than you think." She excels at crushing opponents in the paint with her body and feet to score points. She is likely to become a leading figure in women's basketball in the future and dominate for many years. “
The author very much agrees with FIBA's evaluation of Li Yueru!
(2) Han Xu (height 205cm, 22 years old):
Against Nigeria: 7-of-9 shooting, including 1-of-2 three-pointers, 15 points and 3 boards.
Against Mali: 1 of 5 shooting, including 0 of 1 three-pointer, 2 points and 3 boards.
Because FIBA wrote this article before the Chinese women's basketball team against Mali, although Han Xu did not perform well against Mali, FIBA still gave her high praise for her performance in the first game:
Han Xu's towering height is eye-catching, but in fact the most impressive thing is her sweet shooting feel and range! Her mid-range shooting is excellent, and she can even shoot three-pointers. And she's very mobile. ”
"Although Han Xu has lost her starting position (because of Li Yueru's presence), it can be bet that for a long time, she will still be an important player in the Chinese team."
FIBA's evaluation of Han Xu is equally objective, and the author would like to add that it is the problem that Han Xu exposed in the match against Mali: her lack of stability, especially in the high intensity of the competition, but also need to improve her performance.
(3) Rupert (height 194cm, birthday in July 2001):
Against Mali: 5 of 8 from the field, including 3 of 4 three-pointers, 13 points, 4 boards, 2 assists and 1 break.
As of press time, the game between the French women's basketball team and the Nigeria women's basketball team went on to the second quarter, and Rupert played 10 minutes and 3 shots on 3 of 10 minutes to get 6 points, 3 boards, 2 breaks and 1 cap.
FIBA Comments: Although Rupert is young, he is already the bronze medalist of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games and the silver medalist of the Women's Basketball European Championships. She has a mature style of play, scoring, rebounding ability and handling skills. Rupert is destined to become the leader of the French frontcourt in the next decade!
epilogue:
At 1:00 a.m. Beijing time on February 14, the Chinese team and the French team will face each other. At that time, Li Yueru, Han Xu and Rupert will all have the opportunity to prove to each other that they are the strongest one!
