On May 29, Beijing time, this year's WNBA tournament attracted the attention of Chinese fans, only because the Chinese women's basketball team Han Xu and Li Yueru all rushed to the United States to compete in the WNBA. It's just that unlike Li Yueru, who has not yet made his debut, Han Xu has played several games this season, and the last two consecutive games have effectively blasted 11 and 12 points to set a new season high, which is also praised by the New York Free agents and the team's coach.
Han Xu is already in her second season in the WNBA, compared to the struggle of the rookie season, Han Xu has grown a lot, especially after the baptism of the Tokyo Olympic Games, which makes her more mature now.
Although Han Xu is currently a substitute for the New York Free Agents, she has scored in double figures in three games this season and has played efficiently in the last two consecutive games. In the last game against the Minnesota Bobcats, Han Xu came off the bench and scored 11 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks on 5 of 6, with a plus-minus of +8 the highest score in the team, setting a record for the highest score of the season.
Now in the New York Liberty team overtime defeat to the Seattle Storms, Han Xu came off the bench for 19 minutes, even if the 9-of-3 crosshairs were not good, but there were 6 of 6 free throws, with 12 points and 8 rebounds of quasi-double-double data, once again refreshing the season's highest single-game record, while 8 rebounds are also a new season record, including as many as 6 offensive rebounds.
For Han Xu's outstanding performance, the New York Freeman team official Tui gave high praise, not only showing Han Xu's breakthrough in the game, but also writing, "Han Xu is really too efficient!" ”
As for Sandy Bloomer, the head coach of the New York Liberty Team, he also praised Han Xu's recent performance, "Han Xu is becoming more and more confident in the team's tactical system, and I am happy for her. She is constantly improving, and in the game against the Bobcats, Han Xu limited the defense of Sylvia Fowls well. Han Xu will fight better and better, and I hope that we can continue to cultivate her and continue to grow. ”
Han Xu's progress and growth are obvious to all, but she is currently only a substitute for the team, and when the New York Liberty suffered a wave of 6 consecutive losses, they may need to make adjustments when they are at the bottom of the league. When Han Xu will be able to hit a starting position is undoubtedly a very exciting thing.
