Lu Anyu was selected for the U19 national youth training team this year, and the reason why he was able to "skip the level" to be selected for the U19 national youth is that his outstanding physical fitness is one of the important reasons. Lu Anyu had a surprising performance of 45 points in a single game when he was in junior high school, and in the 2018 National U17 Men's Basketball Preliminary Tournament, he led the Jilin team to the 3rd place and advanced to the final stage, while in the U18 club group competition of the Second National Youth Games, Lu Anyu contributed an average of 18 points per game.
At the NBA Elite Program Training Camp held at the end of September 2018, Lu anyu won the Will Character Award in recognition of his perseverance, selflessness, dedication and collaborative spirit. In December, Lu Anyu was awarded the title of First Class Athlete.
In fact, in August 2018, Lu Anyu was selected for the national youth team at the age of 16 to prepare for the 26th China-Japan-Korea Youth Games held in Yeosu, South Korea.
It is worth mentioning that in October 2018, Lu Anyu once singled Maddy during training in the United States. At that time, he actually dribbled through the crotch and passed Maddy.
A layup was then scored and Maddy failed to block.
Then the youngster was overjoyed and cheered, while Maddy kicked the basketball away in anger. His talent is astonishing.
It is worth mentioning that Lu Anyu also has a younger brother named Lu Anyang, only 1 year younger than his brother, born on April 21, 2003, also playing in the Jilin team, 1 meter 9 tall, appeared at this year's Nike All-Asia Training Camp, and was selected for the U16 National Junior Training Team.
Starting June 29, the 2019 U19 Men's Basketball World Cup will start in Greece. The Chinese team was divided into Group D with the powerful Puerto Rican team, France team and Serbia team. We also look forward to Lu Anyu's men's basketball debut to have a brilliant performance in this cup.
