This year's U18 Asian Youth Championship men's basketball team can be regarded as having completed the task, but at the last moment of the last game, Duan Ruiqi had an accident. He could have played in the CBA next season, but Duan Ruiqi ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and completed surgery on September 25, confirming that he will be out for 40 weeks. After such a time is determined, Duan Ruiqi will definitely be reimbursed for the season next season.
For Duan Ruiqi's injury, it is obvious that he should not act. After all, the national youth was ahead by a big score, and it was the last moment of the game, so he still tried his best to save the ball, and finally caused an accident, which is a pity. As far as the entire Asian Youth Championship is concerned, his performance is not bad, averaging 9.8 points, 1.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 23.6 minutes per game. Especially when he holds the ball, he can stabilize the offensive rhythm of the national youth, and he is also the main rotation player of the men's basketball team.
Suffering this kind of injury has a more or less fatal impact on his career. Of course, Duan Ruiqi's injuries are the same as Ah Budu, Duan Ruiqi is the right knee, and Ah Budu is the left knee. However, through the adjustment of the past few years, Abdu has found his peak form, but his play on the offensive end has also suffered some impacts. On the other hand, Duan Ruiqi is still young, and his recovery will definitely be faster. It's just that this kind of injury will basically lose most of his athletic ability, and all of this needs Duan Ruiqi to adjust and adapt.
Anyway, Duan Ruiqi doesn't have to be too sad, many players recover well after major injuries, especially in the rehabilitation stage, Duan Ruiqi needs to go to United States for treatment as much as possible, which is lacking in China. Coupled with the age here, as long as he is not in a hurry to come back in the later stage and recovers slowly, he has every hope of returning to the court in full condition, and he may also play value in the CBA in the future, but he may not be able to play in next year's Asian Youth Championship. After he recovers, it will be July and August, and it is difficult to have such a time.
