On April 28, Beijing time, according to the official social media of the Zhejiang men's basketball team, Yu Jiahao, a player of our club, will go to the United States for special training in the offseason this year. At present, Yu Jiahao himself has successfully obtained a visa to go to the United States, and will leave from Hangzhou to the United States on May 1 and return to China in early July. Combined with the previous media reports, Yu Jiahao has already passed the relationship with the agent before the CBA playoffs, the rumors of operating visas, coupled with the special training in the United States in May, it is obvious that this is directly related to the upcoming NBA Summer League, as well as some of the popular player training camps participating in the NBA Draft, if Yu Jiahao can make great progress through personal efforts, footsteps and physical confrontation, this is a very worthwhile choice to try.
Why say so, Yu Jiahao's physical talent, standing at the level of players of the same age, has long been the leader of the CBA League, the best star of the new season is a very convincing performance, and staying in China, if it is only the way for the men's basketball training team to accompany, it does not have much significance.
Very representative is Zeng Fanbo, who has also been selected for the Chinese men's basketball team training many times before, but the gap with Guo Allen, Zhou Qi, Zhou Peng and others is not to say that the same level can be achieved through separate training, especially experience and physical confrontation, to some extent is the competition between the youth team and the adult team. When it comes to selecting the 12-man roster, and can not go out with the team, obviously there is not much exercise value. This summer, the task of the men's basketball team is very heavy, the window period in June, the Asian Cup final in July, the Hangzhou Asian Games in September, the current Situation that Zhou Qi, Shen Zijie, Wang Zhelin can play, Yu Jiahao's personal ability is not enough to challenge these big brothers.
The targeted special training in the United States is a relatively different situation, whether it is some training camps or summer leagues, bringing together players of similar ages around the world and competing together. This time is an important moment for Yu Jiahao to clearly see the gap, or to reflect his own advantages, if the performance of all aspects meets expectations, or is recognized by some NBA teams, Yu Jiahao can join hands with Zeng Fanbo to participate in the NBA draft.
Of course, Yu Jiahao and Zeng Fanbo, with reference to the current development trajectory, have undergone major changes, Xiao Zeng stayed in the United States for a long time to play, accepted high-intensity confrontation, and relatively made great progress in adapting, Yu Jiahao returned to the CBA to play, felt the intensity of the professional league in advance, but injuries, team positions, and personal technology polishing, Zhejiang men's basketball team only used him as future potential, and did not reach the state of core players.
