He is a player ranked high in the world in China,” Liu Zhen continued. The analysis of the opponents and the careful consideration of the coaching staff resulted in the selection of Li Haonan and Yan Peng. They ranked first and second in the domestic three-player basketball events. Both of them are swing players.”

Speaking of Olympic opponents, Liu Zhen said: “There are six European teams in the Olympic Games, which are our main opponents. They are the pioneers of three-player basketball, and the penetration rate of three-player basketball in Europe is extremely high.
