The Asian Cup will be held in Indonesia from 12 to 24 July 2022. According to the Asian Cup format, if all goes well with the two teams, the Chinese men's basketball team and the Australian team are likely to meet in the semifinals.
In September this year, the Chinese men's basketball team will also compete in the Asian Games. The UAE has not yet decided whether to play the Asian Cup and the Asian Games, and the younger generation of the Chinese men's basketball team must stand up. As the core of the internal and external lines, Zhou Qi and Guo Allen have to take on greater responsibility.
