However, on April 7th, Li Yueru's appearance in the United States was overshadowed. According to the well-known basketball blogger "disciple of Solomon", when Li Yueru just came out to reach a contract with the WNBA Chicago Sky Team, chinese basketball association contacted Li Yueru's parent team and made it clear that he disagreed with Li Yueru's plan to play in the American WNBA! To put it bluntly, Li Yueru wanted to play in the WNBA, but Yao Ming and the Basketball Association were the first to disagree.
Moreover, according to Disciple of Solomon, even if Li Yueru has made a statement to the Basketball Association, even if she plays in the WNBA in the United States and there is a competition in the women's basketball team in China, she is willing to return to China in advance to participate in the joint training and competition of the national team. Basketball Association and Yao Ming remain firm. Therefore, judging from the current situation, it is basically difficult for Li Yueru to rush to the United States to participate in the WNBA League in the new season.
Soon another basketball blogger "We Love Women's Basketball" also forwarded the report of "Solomon's Disciple" and said that the news he got was the same! After Li Yueru's beautiful wish to attend the WNBA in the United States was blocked by chinese basketball association, Yao Ming was quickly pushed to the forefront. We should know that the famous basketball players in those days, including Yao Ming and Wang China, were also hard to match in China when they were players, but Bayi and Shanghai were unwilling to let go, so it was difficult to break through many obstacles and gain NBA experience.
It stands to reason that Yao Ming, who has experienced such things and encountered such troubles, should better understand the idea that players want to go to the United States for promotion. However, when Li Yueru signed a contract with Chicago Sky, chinese basketball association suddenly stepped in and told Li Yueru's home team that Li Yueru was not allowed to play abroad, even though Li Yueru had shown sincerity. Yao Ming, as a player who once played in NBA, even stepped in to prevent Li Yueru from playing WNBA in the United States. Many fans call Yao Ming short-sighted.
Soon, Zhu Yanshuo, a famous mouth in Taiwan Province Province, stood up and spoke. Zhu Yanshuo learned that, firstly, the contract between Li Yueru and the home team of WCBA has not yet ended. Second, Li Yueru's agent is not registered with the Basketball Association, so there is no way to contact the Basketball Association. Third, WNBA did not send all clarification letters to the Basketball Association through FIBA. It is not unreasonable that the Basketball Association is unwilling to release people. Judging from the fact that the Basketball Association is willing to let Han Xu play in the United States, Yao Ming has no reason not to let Li Yueru go.
Soon Zhu Yanshuo corrected the report, and the contract between Li Yueru and Guangdong team will expire in July this year. In addition, although Li Yueru's agent is not registered with the Basketball Association, it is not stipulated that the agent must be publicized. Wang Fang, the main person in charge of the women's basketball team in China, has been in contact with Li Yueru's agent. Finally, only after Li Yueru arrived in the United States can WNBA clarify this letter through FIBA. Zhu Yanshuo said that if Li Yueru wants, she can still go to WNBA.
Judging from the report of Taiwan Province famous mouth Zhu Yanshuo, we really wronged Yao Ming and chinese basketball association. At present, Li Yueru is not sure whether she can compete in the WNBA, mainly because of the contract. If Guangdong women's basketball team can make concessions, I believe Li Yueru can successfully land in WNBA. Here we also apologize to Yao Ming.
