WNBA: Han Xu returns to consecutive absence + rarely wears a long skirt to watch the game The libero narrowly won and ranked first in the East
On July 9, Beijing time, the WNBA regular season continued to compete, and the New York Liberty narrowly defeated the Seattle Storm 80-76 at home, winning three consecutive games and ranking first in the East with 13-4. Han Xu, the core of the Chinese women's basketball team, failed to play, and she missed two consecutive games after returning to the WNBA, and the reason given by Mei Kee was that Han Xu was plagued by a foot injury, and Han Xu appeared on the sidelines in a long skirt.
Han Xu, the core of the Chinese women's basketball team, left the team on leave before, and she led the Chinese women's basketball team to re-win the women's basketball Asian Cup after 12 years. Han Xu performed extremely well, she averaged 22 points, 11.8 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game in the Women's Basketball Asian Cup with an efficiency value of 29.4, both ranking first in the tournament, Han Xu won the final MVP and the MVP of the tournament, and joined the selection of the best team.
It's just that after returning to the WNBA, Han Xu's first game of return was missed because of rest, and now in the second game of his return, the official reason for his absence given by the New York Liberty is still rest. However, according to Jackie Powell, "During training, Han Xu received treatment for some foot injuries, which 'have been bothering her for the past year'. Han Xu's playing time in the Women's Basketball Asian Cup made her injury even more serious. ”
Han Xu came to the sidelines to watch the game in this game, Han Xu wore a white long skirt to the sidelines, undoubtedly it is quite surprising to dress like this, after all, I have hardly seen Han Xu wear a skirt in the past, and she also communicates with her teammates on the sidelines.
Han Xu continued to miss the game, facing the Seattle Storm, the New York Liberty led 18-16 in the first quarter, and was overtaken by one point at 35-36 at the end of the first half. Heading into the second half, the New York Liberty won by seven points in the third quarter 25-18, leading 60-54 in the first three quarters, and continued to suppress their opponents in the final quarter to win 80-76.
In this game, the New York Liberty duo performed well, Stewart got 25+8+3, while Ionescu got 20+4+8, and no one else could score a double. The New York Liberty went on a three-game winning streak to continue to top the East with 13-4.
When Han Xu will be able to return to the game, there is no official further news, and netizens speculate whether they will have to wait until the Universiade later this month to see Han Xu play, after all, this season in the WNBA Han Xu only played 5 games, a total of only 18 minutes to score only 4 points.
