The Chinese men's basketball team announced the 14-man squad for the 2025 Asian Cup qualifiers, but two outstanding players unfortunately failed, which sparked heated discussions in the basketball circle, and the attention was particularly focused on whether Guangdong team forward Du Runwang is expected to play.
In order to prepare for the Asian preliminaries, the Chinese men's basketball team, under the leadership of coach Djordjevic, has participated in the training since the beginning of the year, including Zhao Jiwei, Hu Jinqiu, Hu Mingxuan, Fu Hao and other seniors with rich game experience, as well as emerging rookies such as Yang Hansen, Qi Lin, and Zhao Jiayi, everyone is highly anticipated!
As the Asian Cup qualifiers approached, the Chinese men's basketball team announced a 14-player lineup for the first time. Unfortunately, Xinjiang men's basketball player Qi Lin, who was unable to participate due to a knee injury, and Zhao Jiayi, who performed slightly worse, were not selected. After careful selection, Du Runwang, Hu Mingxuan and Xu Jie from the Guangdong men's basketball team were lucky to be among the national teams.
In response to the announcement of the normal announcement of the Chinese men's basketball team, Mai Suifeng, a well-known industry person, expressed his incomprehension and confusion. He asked through social platforms why Du Runwang, a player, could be included in the squad? This seems to indicate that Djordjevic has a special preference for similar players. However, no matter what, Mai Suifeng hopes that Du Runwang, who has entered the lineup, can devote himself to the game and live up to the heavy responsibility entrusted to him by everyone.
Looking at Du Runwang's personal statistics, since he joined the CBA in the 2018-2019 season, he can contribute an average of 59 points and 23 rebounds. In particular, he shot a staggering 46% from three-point range. However, although there is still room for improvement compared to other excellent forwards, such as Liaoning's Zhang Zhenlin averages 182 points, Shenzhen's Gu Quan averaged 12 points per game, and Jilin's Jiang Yuxing averaged 16 points per game6 points. But given his height advantage and consistent three-point shooting skills, we believe he will still play an important role in Djordjevic's system.
Experts do have different views on whether Du Runwang meets the standards of the Chinese men's national basketball team. According to Coach Djordjevic, Du Runwang has the qualities and skills to adapt to the requirements of the national team.
Recently, the Chinese men's basketball team announced a list that has attracted much attention, among which the addition of Du Runwang has caused a lot of heated discussions. While some fans expressed doubts, there were also many who supported his excellent performance at the Asian Games and the perfect fit with Djordjevic's tactical philosophy. This controversial choice may bring new thinking to the Chinese men's basketball team, which is stepping up preparations for the 2025 Asian Cup qualifiers.
After the Chinese men's basketball team announced the 14-man roster, the focus mainly fell on Guangdong small forward Du Runwang. Although there are some comments questioning his strength, Coach Djordjevic still firmly believes that Du Runwang is one of the best players for the team's tactical needs, which will have an important impact on the men's basketball team's preparation for next year's game.
We sincerely invite everyone to share their views and opinions on the Chinese men's basketball roster in the comment area below, so that we can work together for an in-depth **. What do you think of Du Runwang's eligibility? We look forward to hearing from you.
