On August 14, the WNBA officially published an article summarizing five players in the league who are unassuming but play a significant role, among them is Chinese player Li Yueru.
The article mentions: “It’s really great to see Li Yueru continuously realizing her potential. Whether it’s with the national team or in Turkey, she has performed exceptionally well, yet she plays a less critical role in the Sparks. Despite inconsistent playing time, her standout performances are becoming more frequent. Li Yueru combines height and agility, developing into one of the best pick-and-roll bigs in the league. Her screen quality and spatial awareness are improving, as is her ability to read the game. Li Yueru has proven that she has the potential to make a long-term impact on this team.”
