On July 31, in the second round of the women’s basketball group stage at the Paris Olympics, the Chinese women’s basketball team, coming off a loss in their first game, faced off against the Serbian women’s basketball team. At halftime, China trailed 39-45, with the overall situation relatively dull; they were down 17-23 after the first quarter and briefly took a three-point lead in the second quarter. However, Serbia’s excellent three-point shooting led to a 22-22 tie for the quarter, and at halftime, Serbia led 45-39. Statistically, Serbia hit 5 out of 6 three-point attempts for an impressive 83.3% success rate, while China shot only 9 for 27 from the field and 4 for 15 from three-point range, for a meager 26.7% success rate. One area where China performed relatively well was free throws, scoring 17 points from 20 attempts in the first half.
The veteran’s ending is very satisfactory! Diana Taurasi averaged 1 point, 0.8 rebounds per game, and a field goal percentage of only 16.7% in this Olympic Games.
