The domestication of Li Kael will not be completed soon. It is not certain whether he can catch up with the World Cup.
The Timberwolves have ended this season, and the news about whether or not Kael Anderson (Chinese name Li Kael) can be naturalized to join China’s men’s basketball World Cup has been widely concerned by the outside world. Recently, it is reported that Anderson has promised to play the World Cup for China men’s basketball, and he plans to leave for China in 10 days. In this regard, Anderson’s brokerage team told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter on the 28th that Anderson’s domestication will not be completed soon. At present, the team is still communicating with the Chinese Basketball Association, and whether it can catch up with the World Cup cannot be determined for the time being. Anderson, 29 years old and 2 meters tall, has a Chinese father and a Jamaica mother, which makes him 1/8 Chinese descent. In the summer of 2018, he came to China to start a family search trip. He visited Xinmu village, Longgang district, Shenzhen, the hometown of his great grandfather, and was listed in the genealogy with Li Keer’s Chinese name. This relationship also made him the naturalized object locked by China’s men’s basketball. Since there was news that he would join Chinese nationality, Carl Anderson has been called Li Kele by Chinese fans. In the regular season this season, he averaged 9.4 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists for Timberwolves. In the first round of the playoffs, he played 4 games, averaging 8.5 points, 4 rebounds and 4.5 assists. However, Anderson suffered an eye injury during the playoff campaign, and he is currently recovering from injury. Anderson had talked about whether to join China’s men’s basketball in an interview before. He said: “This matter will be discussed with his family and the brokerage team before making a decision after the end of the season.” At the same time, Anderson said that he liked China very much, and his previous visit to relatives left many unforgettable memories. He also said that he was looking forward to returning to China. Now that Timberwolves have ended this season’s campaign, should Anderson’s joining China’s men’s basketball be put on the agenda? Anderson’s brokerage team told the reporter of Beijing Youth Daily that there was no precedent for this kind of thing before, so all aspects were groping for progress. At present, the team is still communicating with the Chinese Basketball Association on this matter, his affairs will not be determined soon. At present, it is impossible to judge whether he can catch up with this year’s World Cup. Anderson is an active NBA player and the main force of Timberwolves. If Anderson can join China’s men’s basketball, it will certainly enhance China’s men’s basketball strength and lay a good foundation for them to achieve the goal of obtaining the direct qualification of Paris Olympics in the World Cup. Earlier, Yao Ming, chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, made it clear: “China men’s basketball is open to naturalized players, and the higher the level, the better.” But at the same time, it should be pointed out that Anderson’s position is the front line, and China’s men’s basketball is actually not too short of people in this position, such as Zhang Zhenlin, Zhou Peng, Zeng fanbo, Zhu Junlong, etc, all have some characteristics and abilities. In fact, if Chinese men’s basketball want to compete with the strong European and American teams, their most important position is the backcourt. Because China’s current backcourt players men’s basketball still have certain competitiveness in Asia, but in the world arena, the gap is still quite obvious. **************************************************************************************************** Men’s basketball
