Both sisters grew up with a sports family. At first, they played basketball just because parents wanted the two to "exercise". Unexpectedly, both of them entered the national youth team and finally even entered the national team. In 2021, the two represented the Chinese team in different basketball events to participate in the Tokyo Olympics. The sister's words "Meet at the top" before the game became a witness to the courage and friendship of the sisters.

Therefore, she has always regarded the glory of the women's basketball team as her mission. In the semi-finals of this World Cup against Australia.

After appearing at the last moment, he completed high-difficulty scores continuously and firmly grasped the score. Only then did I have the chance to score a penalty at the last minute.

Huang Sijing No. 11 26-year-old
knockout match in the first game against France. Huang Sijing played for 38 minutes and 30 seconds. That is, she only rested for 1 minute and 30 seconds in total. In fact, this key player of the women's basketball team almost became a football player.
Huang Sijing was born in Meixian, a famous football hometown in China. My father is also a professional football player. However, the Huang Sijing sisters have liked playing basketball since they were young. It’s just that my sister is over the age and cannot enter the sports school. This led Huang Sijing to the path of a professional player alone.
Huang Sijing, who has been active since childhood, has always had short hair and will not wear brightly colored clothes. Just like her performance in the national team. Usually, he does not reveal the water leakage, but stands up at the moment of life and death. He scored 18 points against France and scored a goal in the last moment of the game against Australia. Talking about why you can stay calm all the time.
She said: "We have experienced many failures before, so we have been training and preparing for so long."
has the ability to be good-looking and has been shouting for teammates to dizziness
1 Zhang Ru No. 10 23-year-old
Zhang Ru did not play basketball since she was a child like most players. She was just on the holiday at the age of 12, and her parents signed her up for a basketball training camp in order not to let her be too idle. As a result, Zhang Ru was noticed by the coach at first sight, and eventually put the girl on the path of a professional player. She spent 8 years from a layman to become a member of the national team.
Although she is just a substitute, she still cheers her teammates in every passion, and even shouts to the point of being dizzy. After Li Meng was unable to play, Zhang Ru was ordered to replace her position in a hurry. Ultimately help the team beat Australia.
Now, this girl with outstanding looks and often loves to laugh has gained a large number of fans with her strength and appearance. At the age of 23, she still has a lot of opportunities to show her style in the national team.
The runner-up curse of "The second-year-old second"
Pan Zhenqi No. 12 27-year-old
95 Pan Zhenqi seems to have always had a "runner-up curse". In addition to winning the Military Games Championship in 2019. She has won the second runner-up of National Games, two runner-ups of WCBA, one Asian Cup runner-up, and now she has another runner-up of the World Cup.
Although she didn't play much in this World Cup. But at the age of 27, she is baptized by the Olympics and can still exert her energy every time she appears.
group pet "Dabao" is a crybaby
Li Yueru No. 14 23 years old
Li Yueru has been taller than others since she was born, as if she was destined to play basketball. Sure enough, she started from the physical training team and played all the way to the national team and grew into the team's offensive core. In 2019, it was even selected by the dream team of WNBA.
Because Li Yueru looks cute, her mother often calls her "baby" or "baoer". When she enters the sports school, the coach calls her "dabao", so this love name continues to this day. With her sweet and cute appearance and cool style, Li Yueru has always been very popular on the Internet. The cute girl's stance of snatching meter balls has always been talked about by fans and is called the "cuteest big center". However, Li Yueru does not want to be regarded as a "silly big guy" or "silly sweet" by others, so she has to work harder than other athletes every time in training. If she plays on the court, she will be very serious and serious.
Off the court, "Dabao" is a crying man. Every time the coach criticizes her, she always has tears in her eyes, but her expression is always strong. At the Tokyo Olympics, the scene of her holding her teammates and crying after losing impressed all the fans.
At this World Cup, Li Yueru started every game, no matter what kind of top players in Europe and the United States, she was fearless. In the finals, she made 8 of 10 shots and scored the team's highest 19 points and 12 rebounds, becoming the decisive needle for the Chinese women's basketball team.
If she were there, would we win the championship?
Li Meng No. 9 27-year-old
If the Chinese women's basketball team, which won the silver medal, had any regrets in this World Cup, it must be that they lacked the most ace player in the last two games - Li Meng. It also leaves unlimited imagination to the fans. If Li Meng is here, will we really have a chance to win the championship?
Li Meng, born in Liaoning, a basketball province, started to get involved in basketball at the age of 5. Because of the bad family environment, she will subsidize her family income from her first professional player salary. Because she likes star LeBron James , she likes others to call her "LeBron Dream", but more fans and players are still willing to call her "Sister Dream".
Li Meng's career might have been even better. She became the MVP of the U17 women's basketball team at the age of 15. But at the age of 16, she suffered a ruptured cruciate ligament of her right knee that was enough to destroy her career. Five months later, she suffered the same injury on her left knee when she returned. Both legs have suffered major injuries, and the career of ordinary people may have ended here.
But Li Meng stood on the court again and ruled the WCBA again. Now she is a 7th WCBA All-Star and two WCBA regular season MVP. She also received a formal offer from the WNBA in 2019.
In this World Cup, Li Meng has always been the best player on the court. In five group matches, she averaged 14.6 points per game, making her the scoring champion in the Chinese women's basketball team. In the group stage against the United States, her 21 points helped China save the suspense of the game to the end. In the game of eliminating France, Li Meng brought a high fever to the court and still scored the highest 23 points in the team.
However, because of the high fever, she could not play in the semi-finals and finals. While taking a photo with the Chinese team, Li Meng wore a T-shirt with opinions on the list of training teams. She said that it was to prevent everyone from leaving any regrets and help them realize their wishes in a special way. But the regrets of the fans may not be changed.
From female middle school students to the patron saint of the Chinese women's basketball team
Han Xu No. 15 23-year-old
0
The biggest contributor to the Chinese women's basketball team's victory over Australia must be Han Xu. In that game, just like the giants in Chinese basketball history such as Yao Ming and Zheng Haixia, she was able to hit the ball again and again while defending the Chinese team's basket.
Han Xu, born in a basketball family, is called "female version of Zhou Qi " because of his tall and thin figure. Since the age of 12, she spent 6 years in Tsinghua High School . She was supposed to be in the professional team, but she actually waited for the national team to be called up first. He was 18 years old and was a high school student, and he shined in the last World Cup. He scored 20 points on the side of the United States, and then from the WCBA to the WNBA, Han Xu became the Chinese female basketball player with the highest draft pick in history.
In this World Cup, Han Xu was elected as the semi-final MVP for his outstanding performance and was selected into the best team of the event. The Australian head coach is also Han Xu's head coach in the WNBA team commented on her: "Han Xu is too difficult to prevent, it is very comprehensive. My disciples are a bit too ruthless to attack me today. It's a pity that she is not on our side this night."
The youngest and shortest
Li Yuan No. 4 22-year-old
Li Yuan not only looks inconspicuous on the court, she is also the only post-00s in the Chinese team. She had never played professional games in 2018 and was recruited into the national team in the previous World Cup.
Li Yuan has been questioned all the way. Although she has won many games in the youth team with Han Xu and Li Yueru, her abilities are doubtful around these dazzling stars. In this World Cup match against France, she scored 10 points and 7 assists on the bench to stabilize the situation and became a key player to help the team win. It was the best fight back to doubts.
One day, the world is the best
Wang Siyu No. 5 27-year-old
After this competition, Wang Siyu made the whole world remember her name. With key steals and two free throws at the last moment, she is the direct creator of the Chinese women's basketball team entering the World Cup final.
Wang Siyu is also an eyewitness to the rise of the Chinese women's basketball team. Since the Asian Games in Jakarta, she has followed the women's basketball team all the way. Although her physical condition is not outstanding, she always gets stronger when she meets strong. The former national team coach once commented that she was a player whose game level was greater than her training level. Wang Siyu put a saying on her personal social media: "Don't be timid when you are in the wind, and don't be timid when you are in the wind." This is the best portrayal of her current state.
Northeastern girl from Lake Normal University
Wu Tongtong No. 6 28-year-old
Wu Tongtong was born in Fuxin, Liaoning on June 27, 1994. After graduating from junior high school, she went south to Hunan and joined the basketball traditional principal county middle school. In 2013, she graduated from Changjun Middle School and was admitted to Hunan Normal University , and led the team to the top 16 in the country. However, her national team journey was not smooth.
After becoming a professional player, she was the absolute main player in the club. She once scored 52 points in one game, but after joining the national team, she never got any chance to perform. It was not until this year after Zheng Wei took office in , her opportunities became more and more.
She has made many wonderful performances in this World Cup. In the final, she scored 13 points and left the court after being injured, which moved all fans. After the game, she said at a press conference: "We have achieved our current goal. So we have the next goal, so see you in Paris, thank you."
Xinjiang girl
Dilana Dilishati No. 13 25-year-old
Xinjiang girl
Dilana Dilishati No. 13 25-year-old
Dilana from Xinjiang entered the Women's Basketball World Cup roster at the last moment. Compared with Han Xu and Li Yueru in the same position, she is much inferior in fame and ability, and her playing time is very limited.
In National Urban Games , she is actually a star with outstanding performance, but in the national team, she will do everything off the court. After each game, Dilana will carefully and carefully distribute the water to each teammate one by one according to the name on the bottle. Although there are not many opportunities to play, I am still meticulous in taking water or handing towels on the sidelines.
Her best performance in this World Cup was when she played against the United States in the group stage. Facing high-level American athletes, Dilana used her energy to provide defense after she came on the court, allowing the game to reach the last moment.
"Bing for call" veteran
Jin Weina No. 8 30-year-old
Jin Weina is the oldest member of this women's basketball team. At the age of 30, she is definitely a veteran in front of other sisters. In fact, in 2014, Kim Vina played in the Incheon Asian Games with the National Olympic Women's Basketball Team, but for 8 years since then, she has never played in major competitions for the national team.
Jin Weina didn't have many opportunities to play before this World Cup, and she often performed too conservatively.In the big victory over Korea, she was the only player in the team who had no points. But after Li Meng was absent, the head coach still gave the opportunity to the veteran. It allowed her to get a lot of playing time in the last two games. Jin Weina did not disappoint the coach's trust either. A layup against Australia at a critical moment was a buzzer-beating three-pointer in the United States at the halftime. All are very critical manifestations.
As she said on social media, for this veteran, no matter what role or task, "will be answered, and the mission will be achieved."
Red flowers and green leaves, no matter which part it is, the final composition is the dazzling golden orchid of the Chinese women's basketball team. This is this Chinese women's basketball team. We absorb the energy from the sun and finally grow into a forest of hope.
