Detailed explanation of the final list of men s basketball team: Zhou Qi and other 7 main players missed + 9 players for the first Asian Cup, with a goal not to compete for the championship

On August 4, with the final 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball team going to the Asian Cup, Zhou Qi failed to catch the last train, and the Chinese men's basketball team lacked seven main players in this competition, Zhou Qi, Yang Hansen, Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng Fanbo, Zhao Jiwei, Sun Minghui and Cui Yongxi, and it is unlikely that he will compete for the championship with the remnants of the team. Perhaps the upper limit is what captain Zhao Rui said to strive for the medal.

The final 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball Asian Cup:

Guards: No. 0 Gao Shiyan, No. 3 Hu Mingxuan, No. 5 Liao Sanning, No. 6 Cheng Shuipeng, No. 8 Zhao Rui

Frontlines: No. 10 Wang Junjie, No. 17 Zhao Jiayi, No. 26 Zhu Junlong, No. 39 Leimon, No. 35 Li Xiangbo

Inside: No. 11 Yu Jiahao, No. 21 Hu Jinqiu

players not selected: Zhang Ning and Xu Jie

Players who missed the opportunity to compete for various factors: Zhou Qi, Yang Hansen, Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng Fanbo, Zhao Jiwei, Sun Minghui, Cui Yongxi

Among the current 12-man lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team, only Zhao Rui, Hu Mingxuan and Hu Jinqiu have participated in the Asian Cup of Men's Basketball Team. Among them, Zhao Rui and Hu Mingxuan have participated in the Asian Cup of the 2022 Men's Basketball Team in 2017, and the remaining 9 players have participated in the Asian Cup of the Men's Basketball Team in 2017.

Xu Jie and Zhang Ning were not surprised. Xu Jie was a shortcoming on the defensive end. Zhang Ning's 3D attributes were not as good as Raymond. Guo Shiqiang paid more attention to defense. Therefore, Gao Shiyan, Raymond and Zhao Jiayi were selected, while Li Xiangbo was likely to reach the inside position. After all, only Yu Jiahao and Hu Jinqiu were pure inside.

After the Chinese men's basketball team lacked the seven main players Zhou Qi, Yang Hansen, Zhang Zhenlin, Zeng Fanbo, Zhao Jiwei, Sun Minghui and Cui Yongxi, the goal of this men's basketball team's Asian Cup is naturally not to compete for the championship, but also agreed that Yang Hansen would not participate.

As for the goal that captain Zhao Rui had expressed before, it was to strive to win medals, but the Chinese men's basketball team needs to strive for first place in the group stage, otherwise it is likely to meet the defending champion Australian men's basketball team in the quarter-finals, and they may be eliminated early by then. If the Chinese men's basketball team can win the first place in the group, it is likely to encounter the Korean men's basketball team or the Lebanese men's basketball team in the quarter-finals, and the goal of reaching the semi-finals is expected to be achieved.
