He was ordered to hit a three-pointer! Is his right choice to be shortlisted for the Chinese team roster?

In the previous Asian Cup semi-finals of the Men's Basketball Team, the Chinese team defeated New Zealand 98-84 and successfully advanced to the finals. Next they will compete for the championship between Australia and Iran, while New Zealand will compete for the third place in the game with the loser between Australia and Iran.

In this game, Raymond, the Chinese team's substitute wing player, still got some playing time, and his performance also has certain highlights. Raymond played 8 minutes and 06 seconds in the game, made 1 of 3 shots and 1 of 2 shots from outside the three-point line, scored 3 points and 2 rebounds, and had 1 foul, with a plus-minus value of +5. Raymond's playing time on the court is not particularly large, and his shots are relatively limited, but in this case he still hit an outside shot, providing certain support to the team on the offensive end. Raymond's performance on the defensive end is also very outstanding. He maintains an extremely high defensive intensity, and he dares to take strength and confrontation. His physical fitness and confrontation ability are also very good, and he also maintains an extremely high defensive focus. Raymond also completed the tasks assigned to him by the coaching staff very well when he was on the court. His overall performance is also worthy of recognition. He also made his own contribution to the team's victory.

Since the start of the Asian Cup, Raymond has played 4 games in the first five games, averaging 6.3 minutes per game, averaging 1.3 points, 1 rebound, 0.3 assists and 0.5 steals, and 0.5 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 28.6%, a three-point shooting percentage of 20%, and a plus-minus value per game is +0. Raymond's playing time in the first few games was very limited, and his fragmented playing time also led to his very average offensive efficiency, and his scoring ability and shooting ability were unable to fully display. However, in this game, head coach Guo Shiqiang still dared to trust Raymond and gave him the most playing time in the Asian Cup so far. Raymond still repaid the trust of the team's coaching staff through his own efforts and posed a certain threat to his opponent.

Judging from the situation of this game, Raymond also used his actual actions to fight back the outside world's controversy about his shortlist of the Chinese team. Raymond's performance last season was very average and did not show particularly outstanding personal abilities, but Guo Shiqiang still brought him to Saudi Arabia. Raymond didn't play much time in the previous games and did not have any effect on the court, which also made everyone question him more. In this game, I believe everyone will not have any doubts about his shortlist in the national team. Being able to shoot in such a game is enough to show his value.
