On the evening of the 18th, the Chinese men's basketball team 108-58, with the advantage of the largest score difference of 50 points in this competition, beat the host Indonesia team and advanced to the quarterfinals of the 2022 Asian Cup.
In the second quarter of the game, Wang Zhelin's injury frightened the fans. On the field, Wang Zhelin struggled to jump up to defend, due to the collision of the other party, the body imbalance fell, the shoulder waist hit the ground heavily, and the screen was severely painful. Just when countless fans were extremely worried about his injury, Wang Zhelin, who had left the field after adjusting, soon returned to the field tenaciously, and how many hanging hearts slowly let go.
In this campaign, Wang Zhelin played 14 minutes and 48 seconds, shooting 4 of 5 from the field, scoring 8 points and 6 rebounds, including 5 rebounds in the frontcourt. Obviously, the state of the entire team of the Chinese men's basketball team is constantly improving, and the competitive state and coordination have gradually entered a better state.
In this Asian Cup, Wang Zhelin shouldered the responsibility of captaining the Chinese men's basketball team for the first time and performed well. In the last game against Chinese Taipei, Wang Zhelin contributed a team-high 17 points, plus 7 rebounds, and the advantage of the inside line was highlighted, leading the team to a big victory over Taipei and advancing to today's play-offs.
In the next knockout match, China vs. Lebanon. I wish and firmly believe that the Chinese men's basketball team will go far and steady!
