With the departure of Chinese men's basketball head coach Jorjevic, the Chinese men's basketball team will see new changes. According to scout Zhao, a famous ball circle, it was revealed that
Guo Shiqiang (1976-), Chinese footballer
It is expected to take over the position of head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team. The Basketball Association has already reported the matter to the General Administration for approval, but since the General Administration has not yet given a final answer, Guo Shiqiang's current position is still an assistant coach. However, with the Guangzhou men's basketball team's foreign coaches and assistant coaches entering the Chinese men's basketball team, it is only a matter of time before Guo Shiqiang takes over.
While Kwok may take over the head coaching position, previously mentioned as a favorite for the
Liu Wei
Instead, he has chosen to make the transition. Liu Wei has reportedly left his position as an assistant coach for the Chinese men's basketball team and joined a young CBA team
Ningbo Fubon
, as head coach for the upcoming season.
Liu Wei joined Ningbo Fubon, on the one hand, because there are a large number of young people in the team, which makes Liu Wei has a unique advantage in cultivating young people; on the other hand, due to the youth of the team, Liu Wei will have more time and space to practice his own philosophy and experience, which is of positive significance to the future development of China's men's basketball coaching team.
Despite his extensive resume at the national team level, Liu Wei's lack of coaching experience at the CBA level may affect his salary package. However, over the course of a season, Liu Wei's combined income is expected to reach seven figures, much more than what he earns with the national team.
Guo Shiqiang's appointment and Liu Wei's transformation signify that the Chinese Men's Basketball Team will move forward towards new goals and directions under the leadership of a new coaching team. Fans are looking forward to Guo's ability to lead the Chinese men's basketball team to better results, and are also looking forward to Liu Wei's coaching career at Ningbo Fubon.
