The final whistle sounded, the score was fixed at 73-70, no one thought that in the U17 World Cup, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated the world's second-ranked French team in the group stage, you know, in the first game, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to Guinea.
In this game, the Chinese men's basketball team played a smooth offense, Zhang Boyuan became the biggest contributor, the whole game, he scored 18 points and 8 boards, Xun Sinan got 12 points, 10 boards and 2 hats. Under the leadership of the two, other teammates are also very powerful, Chen Yixiao 6 points, Li Yuezhou 14 points and 3 breaks, Shen Wudi 9 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, Wang Hongze 4 points, Fu Wenhao 4 points, He Wenwei 6 points and 4 assists.
There is no doubt that although the Chinese men's basketball team won this game unexpectedly, it was also natural to win. Because, they did their best. Especially at the last moment, Zhang Boyuan threw first, and then the whole team worked together to defend, causing the French team to make a mistake and completely win. In the past, we were forced by our opponents to make mistakes. Whether it was the World Cup against Poland or the Asian Games before, we didn't play well at the last minute.
After the game, many fans also spoke highly of this game, believing that this was another important victory for the Chinese men's national men's basketball team in the World Series after the Beijing Olympics.
Seeing this game, the happiest person is obviously NBA legend Yao Ming. As we all know, the Chinese men's basketball team is really uncomfortable now, and lost to the Macau Black Bears in the previous warm-up game, so we urgently need some big wins to boost morale. And the game played by the U17 undoubtedly gave everyone confidence. Although there are some differences between the youth team and the senior team, being able to win the game proves that our talent pipeline is okay.
It can be said that as long as these people are carefully cultivated, such as Xun Sinan and Zhang Boyuan, it is entirely possible to become the main players of the national team in the future.
