Just now, the official Weibo of the Chinese Basketball Association released a message saying: Welcome Li Kaier! With the promotion and support of all parties, Li Kaier has obtained Chinese nationality this morning and met with Yao Ming, chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association. Thank you for the support and help of all parties, thank you to the support of Li Kyle's family, and thank the fans and media for their long-term attention to the Chinese men's basketball team.
Li Kaier's naturalization road finally came to an end after half a year, and after the Chinese men's football team, the Chinese men's basketball team also began its own naturalization road, and Li Kaier also became the first naturalized player in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team.
As an excellent forward swingman, Li Kyle is also the team's main rotation player in the Timberwolves, the 29-year-old Li Kyle can average 9.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.1 steals, 0.9 blocks per game in the Timberwolves. At the same time, in the current situation of the poor performance of the guard line of the Chinese men's basketball team, Li Kyle can also make a cameo appearance as a point guard of the team, and the scoring organization can be caught at the same time.
The addition of Li Kyle can greatly enrich the tactical system of head coach Jordjevic. In recent years, with the fall of Ding Yanyuhang, Zhou Peng is gradually aging, the forward line of the Chinese men's basketball team has once again appeared in the state of no successor, although Zhang Zhenlin is gradually growing, but still has not grown into an Asian or world-class forward level, with the addition of Li Kyle, the problem of the forward line can also be solved. With height, experience, and ball control, it may be a perfect fit for the Chinese men's basketball team.
Of course, Li Kyle is not the savior of the Chinese men's basketball team, not because his addition can improve the level of a lot, basketball is a team sport after all, every position on the court is indispensable, and can not pull the crotch. But think about the front line with Li Kyle and the inside line with Zhou Qi, the picture is quite beautiful.
The addition of Li Kyle will mean that the 16 players currently training overseas will also eliminate 5. Here I predict the final 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball team:
ZHOU Qi, WANG Zhelin, HU Jinqiu, ZHAO Jiwei, ZHAO Rui, ZHANG Zhenlin, SUN Minghui, CUI Yongxi, ZHOU Peng, ZENG Fanbo, HU Mingxuan, LI Kaier.
Do you have any expectations for the Chinese men's basketball team after Li Kyle's successful naturalization?
