The man moved alive, the tree moved dead! Li Yueru s latest news, scored 11 points and 9 rebounds, Fans: Don t play in the Asian Cup

The sentence "Man moves to live, and tree moves to die" is vividly reflected in Li Yueru. On June 21, the WNBA regular season continued, with the Dallas Flying Wings and the Connecticut Suns in a matchup, and this game is crucial for both teams that are difficult to win. Li Yueru's outstanding performance has become a key factor in Feiyi's ability to win. Li Yueru came on as a substitute and scored 11 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, helping the Flying Wings narrowly defeat the Suns 86-83, achieving the first two consecutive victories this season! At the beginning of the game, the Suns relied on Jones and Thomas' offense to establish an advantage, and scored 23-18 in the first quarter. The Flying Wings fell into offensive stagnation, and the No. 1 pick Peppa made a brilliant breakthrough, but his teammates made three consecutive blackshots, Li Yueru sat on the bench, constantly communicating tactics with the assistant coach, and was always ready to make a debut. In the second quarter, Flying Wings head coach Harmon decisively replaced Li Yueru with two minutes after the start of the game to change the passive situation in the inside. After Li Yueru appeared, the effect was immediately effective. He pushed Thomas away from him, completed the hook score, and successfully interfered with Thomas' throw.

In the middle of this quarter, Li Yueru was smart and smooth in a fast break, and easily made a layup with Peppa's wonderful pass, helping the Flying Wings narrow the gap to 1 point. Li Yueru's performance of 2 of 3 shots and +5 in 5 minutes has become a surprise for the team. In the second half, the Suns strengthened their double-team against Page, and the Flying Wings' offense fell into a scoring drought again. At the critical moment, Li Yueru scored three consecutive offensive rebounds in the inside, one of which was forced to make a second attack under the double-team of three.

also showed support ability beyond expectations, attracting double-teams and quickly passing the ball on the outside, helping teammates hit three-pointers. At the end of the third quarter, Li Yueru faced the Suns' small defender who replaced the defense and decisively chose a mid-range jump shot to help the Flying Wings overtake the score 64-62. In the final quarter, Li Yueru played the whole quarter, gained the trust of the head coach, and became the core of the offense and defense of the Flying Wings. With 5 minutes left in the game, both sides tied 78. Li Yueru calmly hit a three-pointer after receiving the pass from Page. Not only that, Li Yueru stood on the free throw line and hit the free throw. In the last minute, the Suns adopted a foul tactic. Li Yueru withstood the pressure and scored a key goal, successfully interfering with Jones's final three-pointer on the defensive end, and finally helped the Flying Wings win with a 3-point advantage.

In June this year, when the women's basketball team was about to play a warm-up match, Li Yueru decisively chose to stay in the WNBA, withstood the pressure of public opinion and actively applied for a transaction. Unexpectedly, she could only turn to the Flying Wings with the doubts of "escaping the Asian Cup" and "unpatriotic".

After this game, I have to sigh: Li Yueru left the Seattle Storm and took the initiative to apply for a deal. She really made the right choice. Thinking about Li Yueru's life at Seattle Storm, it's really awkward. The Storm is a veteran strong team in the WNBA. The two All-Star centers occupy a lot of playing time and still have potential rookies to train. Li Yueru can only become the fourth choice.

In such a fiercely competitive environment, Li Yueru did not get much playing time and could only play about 8 minutes per game. With less time, the data is naturally not good-looking. Basically, you score 2 points and 2 rebounds per game. In fact, she has solid skills, flexible steps under the basket, and active defense, but no matter how good she is, she can't play without a chance to play.

Joining the Dallas Flying Wings became a turning point in Li Yueru's career. At this time, the Flying Wings ranked last in the record, and the main center was absent due to international competitions, and the inside line was almost vacuum. It is this dilemma of the weak team that has opened the door to opportunity for Li Yueru.

From actively fighting to win +9 plus or negative values ​​in his debut, to now scoring a quasi-double data, Li Yueru has proved his strength. In this game against the Suns, Li Yueru's value was fully reflected. She played for 12 minutes in the last quarter, and the key three-pointers stabilized the morale of the army. She made all six free throws to lock in the victory. Her five frontcourt rebounds showed her dominance under the basket, and her scored and rebounded hit a season high. In the past, she rarely had the opportunity to show herself like this.

For the Chinese women's basketball team, it is a good thing that Li Yueru can gain a foothold in the WNBA. Those fans who criticized Li Yueru before should now understand her choice. When professional players make decisions, there are many things to consider, and they cannot just look at the front of them. Li Yueru is now playing in the Flying Wings team better and better. When she returns to the national team in the future, she will definitely be the main force of the team and help the Chinese women's basketball team achieve better results!
