With four out, the Chinese men's basketball team will be: guards: Zhao Jiwei, Liao Sanning, Cheng Shuai Peng, Hu Mingxuan, Xu Jie; frontline: Cui Yongxi, Abdusalamu, Qilin, Zhu Junlong; inside: Hu Jinqiu, Yu Jiahao, Yang Hansen, a lineup that's pretty much the middle generation + new generation.

In the two group games, facing Mongolia men's basketball team we don't have much problem, but against the full-strength Japan men's basketball team, especially they are very eager to avenge the mentality of two years ago when they lost the game with a 49-point difference, the Chinese men's basketball team's situation is not optimistic. But in order to encourage the Chinese men's basketball boys, Yao Ming's side is also spreading his voice.

We are out of touch with the world of basketball and in order to avoid falling behind, we need to have a clearer perception and awareness of change, Yao said. Yao also made it official that he wants the Chinese men's basketball team to improve the level it deserves and he wants a new core of these young players.

The statement released by Yao brought a sense of reassurance to the youngsters, who were told that they have a chance to become the future core of the Chinese men's basketball team if they dare to fight hard in the game. Especially for Hu Mingxuan, who is aggressive on offense, Yao's words are a boost to his confidence. Hu Mingxuan can put his best foot forward without fear and find proof for his mistakes. Unlike the men's soccer team, they are no longer afraid to act for fear of mistakes. We believe Hu Mingxuan has heard Yao's words, and we look forward to him and the young players of the Chinese men's basketball team to show wonderful performance.
