In the Italian basketball league Varese team and Milan Olympia team, a Chinese face appeared.
He is 16-year-old basketball teenager Zhao Weilun. In this game, he played in the last 2 minutes, 1 3-point shot, no hits, no points.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. This ball, for the young Zhao Weilun, is of representative significance. He is currently the only Chinese foreign general to fight in Serie A.
At the age of 16, playing adult competitions is not easy in itself.
Talk about this young player, who was born in Italy on September 8, 2005, and received a Chinese passport at the Chinese consulate in Florence.
In June 2010, Zhao Weilun, who was less than 5 years old, registered with the Varese Basketball Club and began basketball training.
Zhao Weilun can be said to be a player cultivated by the European basketball youth training system, and his talent has been recognized by the head coach of the youth team. When he was in the Italian youth team, Xiao Zhao had already won various youth team awards.
At the age of 16, he made an appearance in a professional competition, and he definitely had something outstanding.
In terms of game highlights, he plays as a defender, has a comprehensive offensive skill, outstanding passing ability, and has the ability to shoot from medium to long distance.
A 16-year-old player, his ability to fight is not bad, which is very rare.
As for the shortcomings, Xiao Zhao's current body still needs to continue to rise, in addition, his sense of rhythm is good, but if he plays a defender, the speed feels more general.
Individual players like to play block and dismantle, but the ability of the left hand needs to be further strengthened.
But no matter what, Zhao Weilun's ability in this group of players in China's U17 is already very prominent in the position of defender.
However, don't forget, in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team, there were many talented teenagers in the past, most of whom were still invisible to everyone, such as Tang Zihao, Gao Shang and others, who were very powerful, and the result was also obscured in the end. So, wait until the adult team is playing well, and then boast.
I also hope that he can play a famous role in the European arena.
If Zhao Weilun plays well, I believe that he will open up a new path for the training of the chinese men's basketball team's young seedlings.
