Wang Junjie has a promising future. Xinhua News Agency reported that in the early morning of August 18, the men's basketball team's Asian Cup final whistle sounded, and at 89:90, the Chinese men's basketball team lost to the defending champion Australian men's basketball team. Although he won the silver medal, the young Chinese men's basketball team has burned out and showed hope. The 1 point lost is the infinite imagination left to the future.

The average age of the Chinese men's basketball team participating in the Asian Cup is 25.9 years old, and Guo Shiqiang calls it the "young team". The reason is not only because of their young age, but also because there are only three players in the team who have experienced the Asian Cup, and most of them are "recruits" in the Intercontinental Competition. Before the game, the prospect of the Chinese men's basketball team playing in this Asian Cup was not optimistic. Zhou Qi, Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng Fanbo and other major players were absent due to injuries. Yang Hansen, who was selected by the NBA Portland Trail Blazers, did not participate in this event, and the Chinese men's basketball team's combat power did not reach the best; from the perspective of external conditions, the joining of the Australian and New Zealand teams has made it more difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to achieve good results in the Asian arena exponentially.

But it is such a young team that has overcome all the difficulties and rushed to the finals, writing a gorgeous chapter of "Heroes have become young since ancient times."

Among them, the biggest surprise is 20-year-old Wang Junjie. As the only young player in the United States who has not experienced traditional youth training, has no CBA experience, and has directed from campus basketball to the list of the men's basketball national team's main team, he has demonstrated comprehensive offensive methods and has become one of the most stable players in the team.

data shows that Wang Junjie averaged 23.5 minutes per game in this Asian Cup, scoring 13 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists, ranking third in the team in scoring and rebounding average, with a shooting percentage of 56.1%, a three-point shooting percentage of 47.8%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 75.0%. In the finals, during the period when the Chinese men's basketball team needed someone to stand up and score, Wang Junjie scored 5 points in a row with a three-pointer and a "Golden Rooster Independence" jump shot. Such high offensive efficiency also made him successfully selected for the best team in the tournament. This slightly young big boy will be the best answer for the fourth position of the Chinese men's basketball team in the future. Liao Sanning on the

back line also grew a lot during the baptism of this competition. Although there was silence, in the semi-finals against New Zealand, he repeatedly used sharp breakthroughs to tear open the defense line and wiped out the opponent's counterattack. At the same time, after 6 games, he ranked first in the team in terms of assists per game.

The future Chinese men's basketball team will have more young players on the stage of the international arena. Yang Hansen and Zeng Fanbo, who failed to participate in the competition, Zhao Weilun, Wang Junjie's alumnus, potential new star Pang Qingfang, and mixed-race young player Zhu Zheng, these flames are waiting for the prairie wind to burn.
