Chinese basketball star Han Xu lit up the court in her Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) debut this weekend, dropping a game-high 22 points to lead the Perth Lynx to a dominant 91-67 road win against the Canberra Capitals. 🌟
The 26-year-old center, who joined the Australian league just days ago, wasted no time making her mark. She went a perfect 6-for-6 in the first half, setting the tone for what one fan called a "hoops masterclass." 🎯
Han—a two-time Olympian and FIBA World Cup silver medalist—dominated the paint with rebounds and blocks while dishing slick assists to teammates like Amy Atwell (who also scored 22). 🏀💨
"She's an unstoppable force," tweeted one analyst after Han sealed the game with a clutch rebound-and-score in the final minutes. The Lynx now gear up for her first home game this Friday against the Southside Flyers. 🚨
Pro tip for basketball fans: Follow Han's journey as she bridges Chinese and global sports culture! 👀🇨🇳
