On September 29, Beijing time, the women's basketball team 8th quarter officially started. Chinese women's basketball team 85-71 French women's basketball team, got the chance to advance to the semi-finals. In this game, the substitute guard Li Yuan played for 25 minutes, made 4 of 9 shots, and scored 10 points and 7 assists. The overall performance was very outstanding, especially in terms of the right to guide the ball. She gave Huang Sijing , and Han Xu 's assist was very timely, helping the women's basketball team that needed someone to stand up the most. Li Yuan withstands the pressure and proves herself.
Many fans saw Wang Siyu , who performed very well in the group stage before. They only played for 9 minutes in this game, and had a very small playing time in the second half. Li Yuan instead became the team's core defender.
actually has a direct relationship with France's defense. France continues to shrink its defense, causing Li Yueru to make frequent mistakes in . Han Xu is not an offensive inside line. Huang Sijing and Li Meng are core strikers, and someone needs to hand the ball to them in time. Li Yuan can adapt to France's defense and obviously has the ability to become such a player. This is also an important opportunity for Li Yuan to get into the 12-man rotation.
The most important point is that Li Yuan has an offensive threat in this game. Whether it is a steal score for counterattack or a three-point shooting, France cannot empty her defense. As for her ability to handle balls after pick-and-roll, she is known as the Zhao Jiwei of , and she must have strong personal ball handling ability. The outbreak in this game also confirms that the number of players in the women's basketball team is large. Zheng Wei can adjust the appropriate main rotation according to the competitive state of different opponents and main players.
For Li Yuan, she gradually realized a very realistic problem, that is, in the Xu Limin era, she did not need too much personal attack at all, she just needed to guide the ball to Li Yueru, and then she could complete the coaching team's tasks. However, in the Zheng Wei era, there was an offensive threat, and the opportunity would dare to end, and the physical confrontation would not have an advantage, and the ball would be handled more decisively. In the last game, the women's basketball team played in Belgium, Zheng Wei did not dare to use it for a long time. After a quiet game, Li Yuan proved himself with practical actions and became the surprise soldier on the bench. Zheng Wei saw that the effect on the field was extremely significant, and the employment of people was adjusted very timely, giving up Wang Siyu and further reusing Li Yuan.
