In the early morning of the 5th Beijing time, China men’s basketball ushered in the fifth warm-up match of overseas training in the Italian Cup, and finally they beat Cape Verde 86-66. In this game, China played a relatively smooth attack men’s basketball, and the outside line also had a good hit rate. Among them, Cui Yongxi, the star of hope, once again showed amazing physical talent. Once he received Zhao Jiwei’s pass, he performed the air relay, and another time he directly broke into the inner line to complete the pull rod and put on the basket, finally, he got the highest 18 points in the team. The game of defender Fang Shuo also continued the good hand feeling when playing the Egyptian team, scoring 11 points, of which 4 shots and 2 shots were made in the third goal, this made Fang Shuo gradually increase his “trust score” in the defender competition “.
Cui Yongxi, known as “CBA Leonard”, has excellent physical conditions. Everyone knows that Zhang Zhenlin is a player with outstanding physical talent and is 2 meters tall and 05 meters tall, arm Stretch 2 meters 04, hand length 21cm, width 9cm. Cui Yongxi is shorter than Zhang Zhenlin. He is only 1 meter 99, but his arm reaches 2 meters 06, and his hand is even more amazing. His hand is 25cm long and 13cm wide. Cui Yongxi is also a player that Coach Joe Evich likes very much. Coach Joe even brought him to the starting position in Cui Yongxi’s first national team match. Moreover, it is understood that when Joe Shuai introduced the team players with Li Kele before, he focused on Cui Yongxi and thought he was a player with great talent and development space.
Cui Yongxi went to the United States for special training this summer. After coming back, he became stronger and had better confrontation ability, which laid a more solid foundation for him to participate in the warm-up training of the national team now. Cui Yongxi got the highest score of the whole team in the game against Cape Verde on the 5th. He showed amazing physical talent in the game, and one of the air relay was even more amazing. At the same time, Cui Yongxi broke through the opponent fengshui ball and came to the basket. The air completed the difficult goal of the pull rod. This shows his strong core strength and confidence in the competition, and such Cui Yongxi undoubtedly makes people have higher expectations for his future development.
Defender Fang Shuo is also consolidating his position in the eyes of the coaching staff. In previous warm-up matches, China men’s basketball could not open the outside line. They were still looking for stable outside shooting points. Shooting has always been the characteristic of Fang Shuo, and it is also the aspect that he can take advantage in the competition in the same position. In the previous match with Egypt, Fang Shuo seized the opportunity and showed his own characteristics. At that time, he scored 4 in 7 points.
In this match with Cape Verde, Fang Shuo continued his outside state. The three points were 4 shots and 2 shots, and once it was still the three points that almost pressed the whistle at the end of the festival. At the same time, Fang Shuo also has the emergency stop investment center after blocking and dismantling, which is indeed characteristic in the current competition of China’s men’s basketball rear guard line. If Fang Shuo’s state can continue, it is very promising that he will be included in the list of the last 12 people.
In this game, China’s attack on men’s basketball was relatively smooth, and the external hit rate was also very high. Among the 11 shots of 21 three-point goals, the three-point hit rate reached 52.4%, which was also the highest since the recent warm-up match. The naturalized player Li Kael did not appear in this game, and the coaching staff still hoped that he would continue to be familiar with the team’s tactical system and play.
Through this competition, we can see that China has made great progress in men’s basketball, especially more skilled in cooperation. More importantly, the confidence of these players is constantly improving, which is also very helpful for them before the World Cup.
