According to lazy bear sports reports, the candidate players who meet Yao Ming’s domestication conditions are very limited, and Li Kele can almost be said to be the only one.

The original text is as follows:

Although naturalized players did not bring substantial improvement to the Chinese men’s football team, at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, naturalized players from many projects participated in the Chinese delegation, especially Gu Ailing’s strong performance, to some extent, it reduces the external doubts about the use of naturalized athletes.

Therefore, China men’s basketball had a naturalized player in 2023 and faced different public opinion environments. This is also the essential reason why Yao Ming can directly respond to domestication for many times. For example, on the Chinese basketball media day held on April 7, 2023, he said that domestication requires cultural identity, the higher the level, the better, don’t refuse. At this time, the issue of domestication of Li Kael seemed to have been put on the agenda. According to Lazy Bear Sports, the internal process of the Chinese Basketball Association began as early as the beginning of this year, to this end, he also made a detailed feasibility report to the General Administration of Sports. The candidate players who meet the above three conditions of Yao Ming are very limited, and Li Kele can almost be said to be the only one.
