Amazing! 13 for 10 in two games! The biggest surprise of Chinese men's basketball has emerged.

Not afraid of being double-teamed, he made difficult reverse layups while fighting through defenders.

He made long-range three-pointers with ease.

His passing awareness was quick and accurate, assisting veteran Hu Mingxuan for scores.

With decent athletic ability, he blocked opponents' three-point shots.

For a relatively insignificant event like the Asian Games, results are secondary; the main goal is to discover and develop new players. Of course, if possible, the best outcome is to have both.

So far, the Chinese men's basketball team has played two Asian Games matches, beating Kazakhstan 99-61 and Bahrain 105-59, with a total net margin of 84 points. They have accumulated four points, topping Group C, and have advanced to the knockout stage early.

19-year-old Li Yuezhou, the youngest player on the current Chinese men's basketball team, was playing in his first official tournament for the senior national team. However, his performances in these two Asian Games games were commendable and he showed no signs of nervousness. In total, he played 47 minutes, making 10 of 13 shots (77% shooting), contributing 27 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks. Against Bahrain, he was a perfect 6 for 6 from the field.

This guy stands 1.88m tall with a 1.91m wingspan. He was already well-known during his time with the national youth team. At the U17 World Cup, he averaged 15 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.7 steals per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 52.9%. At the U18 National Games, he averaged 42.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 4.5 assists, including two games of 50+ points, shooting 52.3% from the field.

Long ago, outsiders predicted that Li Yuezhou might become the latest answer for the Chinese men's basketball guard line. However, his performance in the Asian Games, donning the national jersey for the first time, has already made him one of the best players on the team, which is truly surprising. His brilliance can even be compared to Wang Junjie at the Asian Cup last year.

The upcoming season will be Li Yuezhou's second year in the CBA. Barring any surprises, he will receive more opportunities from the Zhejiang team. His rookie season stats are as follows:

Regular season: averaged 16.7 minutes, 5.8 points, 1.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, shooting 36.2% from the field and 27.5% from three.

Playoffs: averaged 21.5 minutes, 8.3 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, with shooting percentages of 40.7% from the field and 29.4% from three.

Actually, Li Yuezhou should consider playing in the NCAA now~
