Chinese basketball has received a lot of attention, and both men's and women's basketball teams have sent a lot of news that makes domestic fans rush to excitement and happiness. Li Yueru, the core center of the Chinese women's basketball team, ushered in the debut of the WNBA, and the 19-year-old Zeng Fanbo and The same age Yu Jiahao were highly praised on the road to the NBA draft.
For Li Yueru, being able to land in the WNBA is really a twist and turn, but she finally joined the Chicago Sky as she wished, and after going to the United States, she embarked on a journey to chase her dreams. Li Yueru also finally ushered in her debut in the WNBA, she played 4 minutes and 25 seconds, with 2 points, 3 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 assist. This data is not amazing, but what is surprising is that Li Yueru's plus-minus is +5, ranking first in the team, which is also the moment when the Chinese women's basketball center's dream comes true.
In addition to Li Yueru and Han Xu, another women's basketball center who has already played in the WNBA, Chinese men's basketball players have also begun to chase their dreams in the United States. Zeng Fanbo, 19, and Yu Jiahao, who is the same age, recently decided to participate in this year's NBA draft, and Zeng Fanbo played in the United States for many years before playing for the American Development League Ignition Team. The youngster, who previously withdrew from a joint trial in Chicago in the middle of this month, instead took part in a trial organized by his brokerage company CAA a few days ago, and Yu Jiahao, who has played for the CBA Zhejiang team this season, is also affiliated with the brokerage company, and both participated in the trial.
The two youngsters showed very good potential in the trial, Zeng Fanbo showed excellent outside three-point shooting ability, shooting 18 consecutive shots, which was amazing, and Yu Jiahao showed the comprehensive skills under the basket, especially the rather gentle shooting skills that were appreciated by many NBA executives who came to watch. Both of these youngsters have received high reviews, and perhaps we will get more surprises at next month's NBA draft. Nowadays, more men's basketball and women's basketball players can land in high-level leagues, which is bound to play a role in promoting Chinese basketball.
