Ye Li is a former China women's basketball player and center. She used to play for Shanghai Oriental Octopus Team. Ye Li was born in 198 1. She was much taller than other children when she was a child, and she liked playing basketball very much, so she was sent to a juvenile sports school to study specially. 15 years old, Ye Li was selected for the Shanghai Youth Women's Basketball Team.
1998, Ye Li finally left the national team, and she had to go back to the club and rest in peace. But to make matters worse, she hurt her knee again in a training session. When it comes to the cause of injury, intensive training is naturally on the one hand, but on the other hand, it may also be fate. Ye Li's right knee is born with two more patellas than others, and it is easy to get injured after long-term wear and tear.
National team experience
In 2004, at the 20th Asian Women's Basketball Championship held in Japan, Ye Li scored an average of 12 in six games in seven days, because her performance was related to her qualification for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. In the match between China and China Taipei, she scored 17 and grabbed 1 1 rebounds, becoming the player with the most rebounds in China. Ye Li won the first Asian Championship trophy and sent her to the Athens Olympic Games for the first time.
In Athens in 2004, although China ranked ninth in the women's basketball team, Ye Li's performance in the team was remarkable. At the closing ceremony, the scene of her traveling hand in hand with Yao Ming became a classic at that time, but since then, Ye Li has gone further and further with the national team. In 2005, she won the 2 1 Women's Basketball Asian Championship with the team. In June 5438+10, Ye Li went to the United States for surgery for the second time because of a bone spur in her right knee. The long recovery time made her miss the whole 2005-2006 Shanghai women's basketball team in WCBA.
