Women s Basketball Team s No. 1 Winner in the World Universiade! Genius Guard won a contract of 3 million: Annual salary exceeds the WNBA No. 1 pick

Who is the biggest winner after winning the World League of Women’s Basketball Championship? Is it Li Sunnan who is in good command, Liu Yutong, a 260-pound big treasure, Chen Yujie, who is experienced in many battles, or Tang Ziting, an anti-aircraft turret? Actually, none of them. After defeating the US team in this World League, the biggest winner of the Chinese women's basketball team was actually Tian Yuanyuan. This unknown little guard became famous overnight and not only gained a large number of fans. Moreover, she also received a contract worth 3 million for four years. In terms of conversion, Tian Yuanyuan's annual salary has exceeded that of the WNBA No. 1 pick. This made Liu Yutong very envious.

This time, the Chinese team was not favored by the outside world at the beginning. Compared with the previous World League, this time without Zhang Jingyi and Han Xu, it is still very difficult for the Chinese team to defend the title. Although the Chinese team has three college students, Liu Yutong, Tang Ziting and Chen Yujie, who are competing in the WCBA. However, the decline in the current lineup and overall strength of the women's basketball team is an indisputable fact. On the eve of the World University of China, the outside world generally predicts the prospects of the Chinese team to be the top 8, and the semi-finals are already the limit of the Chinese team.

But after the group stage began, the Chinese team made rapid progress, defeating Portugal, Romania and Chile, successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, and then overturned Japan and Poland, directly reaching the finals, and defeated the United States in the finals and successfully won the championship. In the three games of the knockout stage, Tian Yuanyuan made great contributions to her performance. Facing the Japanese team, she exploded in the final quarter, scoring 14 points in a row, helping the Chinese team to perform a major reversal. In the subsequent semi-finals, she stood up against Poland and scored 7 points in a row in overtime to help the Chinese team secure the victory. In the final against the US team, she scored 8 points in a row in the third quarter, leading the Chinese team to a 17-2 climax, completely widening the gap.

After winning this championship, Tian Yuanyuan also let the outside world fully see her strength. Look, as super rich people in the WCBA League, they have already extended an olive branch to Tian Yuanyuan. It is reported that this time, the Sichuan team offered Tian Yuanyuan a high salary that was hard to refuse, with a top contract of 3 million in four years. You must know. As a newcomer, it is really enviable that Tian Yuanyuan was able to get such a high salary as soon as she debuted. After all, looking at the world, the salary of the women's basketball league is notoriously low.

In the world's number one league like the WNBA, the average annual salary of players is only barely $100,000, while the annual salary of newcomers is even smaller. Even as the WNBA No. 1 pick, their annual salary for the first year is less than $80,000. If calculated based on this, the annual salary of the WNBA No. 1 pick is actually less than 600,000 yuan. And what about Tian Yuanyuan? After signing a four-year, 3 million contract with the Sichuan team, this means that her average annual salary has reached 750,000 yuan, which has exceeded the annual salary of the WNBA No. 1 pick.

Tian Yuanyuan, born in 2001, is 23 years old this year and is 1.79 meters tall. At the beginning of her career, she played for the Sichuan Youth Team and was selected for the U16 Women's Basketball National Team. However, unlike other players, Tian Yuanyuan chose to continue her studies between studies and career. In this World League, with the Chinese team winning the championship, Tian Yuanyuan also became famous overnight and became the key queen in the minds of fans. After seeing Tian Yuanyuan's excellent performance, the Sichuan team couldn't help but take action and gave her a high-paying contract.
