Almost at the same time, the U19 World Youth Championship is also in progress, and the National Youth Women's Basketball Team lost to Canada with a huge disadvantage of 63 points.

Although there were some twists and turns, the Chinese women's basketball team still defeated the South Korean team in the second group stage of the Asian Cup. Coach Gong Luming used the combination of Han Xu and Zhang Ziyu in the game, which looked good. After the game, Gong Luming said that the double tower combination of Zhang Ziyu and Han Xu has not yet exerted all its power. Han Xu also bluntly stated in an interview with the media that the Shuangta only exerted three successful forces.

From the Twin Towers, it can be predicted that in the future, when facing Australia and even the fierce European and American teams, Han Xu and Li Yueru will definitely play together for a period of time to make up for the Chinese women's basketball team's disadvantage in figure and confrontation.

In the era of Zheng Wei and Xu Liming, there was also a try to combine the two towers of Han Xu and Li Yueru, but the effect was very average, and these two centers usually start in turn.

However, Han Xu is too thin and Li Yueru is too slow. Once these two people are put on the court, they will often be targeted by the opponent. More importantly, although Li Yueru is tall, other teams are not without the inside line that is close to or even more than two meters tall, so on the defensive end, the double towers have no advantage at all.

But now it is different. Zhang Ziyu, who is 2.23 meters tall, is an unshakable giant tower standing under the basket. Han Xu can also open up space for Zhang Ziyu by relying on his agility and shooting, and can fill in time when defending.

Li Yueru is playing in the WNBA now. In the future, she will definitely feel embarrassed when she returns to the national team, because her position has been completely replaced by Zhang Ziyu. After all, Zhang Ziyu can form a double tower with Han Xu, but it is difficult for her to play as the starting center. What should she do if Zhang Ziyu and Han Xu?

So the final result may be that Li Yueru will become the second or even third center, Zhang Ziyu and Han Xu will take turns starting the center, and the latter will play in the double towers together, and Li Yueru will be on standby at any time.

Almost at the same time, the U19 World Youth Championship is also in progress. The National Youth Women's Basketball Team lost to Canada with a huge disadvantage of 63 points, but Ran Kejia still performed outstandingly. She scored good data of 14 points and 7 rebounds. It can be said that the entire National Youth Women's Basketball Team expects Ran Kejia to attack.

Therefore, although the national youth women's basketball team has poor performance, at least potential stocks like Ran Kejia have emerged. She is very likely to be promoted to the national team for training in a short period of time and partner with Yang Shuyu to make up for Li Meng's absence.
