Recently, the Chinese women's basketball team is indeed very busy, not only to prepare for the Paris Olympic Games qualifiers, but also Coach Zheng Wei and Li Meng also came to the good news, recently the Chinese Olympic Committee released a new appointment, women's basketball coach Zheng Wei Coach was appointed as an executive member of the Chinese Olympic Committee, which is the General Administration of Sports to coach Zheng Wei's recognition.
As a superstar of the Chinese women's basketball team, Li Meng also recently came to the good news that the WNBA Washington Mystics team intends to sign a contract with Li Meng again.
Li Meng has joined the Mystic Ball in the 2023 season, as a rookie, Li Meng played a total of 34 games last season, played an average of 15.9 minutes per game, can get 5.6 points, 1.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists, the highest score in a single game is 14 points, hit a total of 44 three-pointers, her three-point shooting, ranked first among rookies, because of her excellent performance Li Meng was also selected for the best rookie team in the WNBA2022-23 season.
However, Li Meng was disgusted by the Mystery Coach because he frequently returned to China to participate in training camps and games, so Li Meng was not only limited in playing time in the late WNBA regular season, but also abandoned in the end. Think about Li Meng's salary in the Mystics team season is only about 60,000 US dollars, which is not even comparable to Li Meng's salary in the WCBA for a month, but the income generated for the club is very huge.
Therefore, in the new season, Washington Mystics intends to continue to sign a contract with Li Meng, because Li Meng is not only a superstar of the Chinese women's basketball team, but she is also very well-known in the United States.
In the last season, Li Meng joined the WNBA with a low salary mainly because of the scandal with Zhang Long, so Li Meng planned to go to the United States to avoid the limelight. The second reason is that playing in the WNBA has always been Li Meng's dream since he was a child, so Li Meng doesn't care about the salary.
If the mystery man wants to continue to sign a contract with Li Meng in the new season, I am afraid that the salary will be increased, because Li Meng's salary in the WCBA this season should be 5 million yuan, and Li Meng's Sichuan women's basketball team is likely to continue to win the championship this season, and the WNBA mystery man wants to poach Li Meng, if the annual salary is less than 1 million US dollars, I am afraid that Li Meng will not agree to go to the WNBA.
In addition, Li Meng has a very important task this year, that is, to lead the Chinese women's basketball team to the gold medal in the Paris Olympics, so the Chinese Basketball Association will not necessarily let Li Meng go to the United States to play. All in all, the Mystics team intends to sign a contract with Li Meng, which is indeed good news for Li Meng, and I hope that Li Meng can shine on the WNBA stage. Thank you for your likes and attention, cheer for Li Meng!
