Hey basketball fans! 🏀 Guess what happened in the Chinese Basketball Association game last Sunday?
The Sichuan Blue Whales 🐳 pulled off an amazing win against the Guangdong Southern Tigers 🐯 with a final score of 104-94 in Chengdu, China! This was a huge deal because the last time Sichuan beat Guangdong was over seven years ago!
The star of the game was Edmond Sumner, an American guard who scored 32 points and grabbed 11 rebounds! That’s called a \”double-double\” in basketball. He also had 7 assists and 3 steals. Wow! 😮
In the third quarter, Sichuan scored an incredible 41 points while Guangdong only scored 15. That’s like scoring way more points than your opponent in one quarter! They turned around a 6-point disadvantage from the first half and built a 20-point lead! Talk about a comeback! 🔥
The coach of the Sichuan Blue Whales, Han Shuo, praised Sumner, saying, \”He is very self-disciplined and sets a very good example for our players. His attitude in life, training, and towards the game is something our young players can learn from.\”
Even though Guangdong’s Xu Jie scored a season-high 32 points, Sichuan’s defense was strong. They limited his shots in the third quarter, which helped them take control of the game.
This exciting game shows how teamwork and determination can lead to amazing results! Do you have a favorite basketball team or player? Let us know! 🏀🎉
