When he was in the United States, Long Zheng knew that the men's national basketball team was the same as the men's national youth team three years ago.

Looking at the list of players, the strengths and weaknesses of this national team are very clear.

Three centers, two power forwards, two small forwards, three shooting guards, two point guards, the weakest position of the national team is undoubtedly the point guard position.

Point guards Suke Nishida and Kunihiro Tanabe are considered to be the two weakest players other than Hanamichi Sakuragi.

is also a guard, but the scoring guard is the strongest link of the national team, Ryumasa, Kota Mimori, and Raita Ito, three strong attackers provide a strong player reserve for the scoring guard position.

After leaving Japan three years ago, apart from Kota Mimori, Ryumasa has only a handful of contacts with everyone. However, Long Zheng's god-like performance in the European training was firmly remembered by everyone.

It stands to reason that Long Zheng snatched the starting position, and the scoring guard Kota Mimori must have an idea, but for Long Zheng, a fellow with unlimited potential, Kota Mimori has long lost the heart of competition.

When the difference in strength between the two is too great, the so-called jealousy and dissatisfaction are meaningless.

The first Asian professional player to join the NBA, and the only NBA player in Asia now, in other words: Ryuzheng is already the nominal No. 1 player in Asia, even though he is only 15 years old now.

The moment Long Zheng walked into the basketball hall, everyone's eyes were focused on him. (To be continued.) )
