Australia also has Yu Jiahao? Is the substitute center really struggling to face the Chinese team?

In the previous men's basketball team's Asian Cup final, the Australian team narrowly defeated the Chinese team 90-89 after a hard battle, and once again won the Asian Cup championship, while the Chinese team was somewhat regrettably ranked second.

In this game, the Australian substitute center Harry Wessels' performance was actually very average. Wissels played 5 minutes and 17 seconds in the game, made 0 of 2 shots, did not score 1 point in the game, contributed only 3 rebounds, and had 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -1. Wissels did not show his traits in scoring and finishing ability at the basket on the offensive end. Although he was able to use his strengths in body and confrontation to win the frontcourt rebounds, he was unable to score. Weissels' performance on the defensive end is also quite difficult, and his shortcomings in movement speed and athletic ability are also very obvious. Weissels' performance on the court seems to be quite struggling, and it is difficult for him to find his presence in such a high-intensity and high-tempo game. It is also because the results are not ideal, and Weissels cannot get more playing time and performance opportunities, which also shows that the team's coaching staff also disagrees with his performance.

During this Asian Cup, Weissels played 6 games in total, with an average of 11.9 minutes per game, averaging 6.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 0.2 assists and 0.2 blocks per game, 0.5 turnovers and 1.8 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 60%, free throw percentage of 88.9%, and a plus-minus value per game of +8.8. Wissels' performance in the previous games was actually quite average overall. However, in the previous game of defeating Iran, Visels defeated all sides and scored 16 points, creating a lot of threats to his opponents. In the other five games, Visels' contribution on the court was actually relatively limited. Weissels' scoring ability at the basket is not outstanding, he does not have any passing ability or support ability. Although he is tall, his ability to protect the frame does not seem to be so outstanding. It is no exaggeration to say that Weissels has a little bit of the Australian version of Yu Jiahao. Although his figure advantage is obvious, he has no idea how to play this role.

Wisels was born in August 2002 and is 24 years old, 216cm tall and weighs 125kg. He is a junior insider from St. Mary's College in California. In the NCAA game last season, Wissels made a total of 34 appearances, averaging 13.1 minutes per game, with averaging 5.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.2 steals and 1 block, and 1.1 turnovers and 1.5 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 54.6% and a free throw percentage of 82.4%. Wissels is just an ordinary substitute player in his team. He doesn't play much time, and his importance in the team has not improved significantly after several seasons, which also shows that his progress is not large, and his shortcomings are very obvious. We also didn't expect that he would be shortlisted for Australia's Asian Cup roster and be able to get the opportunity to enter the rotation lineup in every game. Obviously, Visels is far from ready to compete in such an intercontinental competition.
