On June 21, the WNBA continued to play, and today the Dallas Flying Wings played against the Connecticut Suns. In the end, the Dallas Flying Leopards defeated the Suns 86-83. In this game, Chinese player Li Yueru played for 24 minutes, played in the fourth quarter, and scored 11 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists in the game.

Li Yueru welcomed this game and joined the second game of Dallas Flying Leopards. Through the first game, the coach and teammates were very recognized and hoped to perform better in this game. After the start of the game, the Flying Leopards entered the state first and took a 6-4 lead. The Suns were not showing any weakness, and the score was tight and overtook the last quarter. However, the Flying Leopards led again in the final quarter, and the Flying Leopards ended 21-16 Suns.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Suns scored three points in a row, narrowing the score to 1 point, and then overtaken the score. Fortunately, Li Yueru scored and reversed the score again. After that, the two sides were in a stalemate, and the Flying Leopards 42-40 Suns ended in the first half.

Back in the second half, the Suns hit a three-pointer, overturned the score and scored in a row, widening the score to 3 points, but the main player of the Flying Leopards made the field and quickly overturned the score and led 3 points again. At the end of the third quarter, the Flying Leopards led by 3 points. In the fourth quarter, the Flying Leopards were always in the lead, but the Suns counterattacked strongly in the end. Fortunately, Li Yueru scored 4 points in a row, stabilized the situation, and finally won the game.

In this game, Li Yueru got a lot of playing time. He played 24 minutes in the whole game and played in the fourth quarter. His playing time was no less than the starter. Li Yueru also used his performance to repay the coach's trust. She was very active, running non-stop, pick-and-roll for her teammates, and then returned to the inside to make up for defense. Although she didn't shoot much, her defense, support, and impact are all very needed by the Flying Leopards. He contributed 11 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists in the game, and grabbed 5 frontcourt rebounds, with very comprehensive data.

Li Yueru took the initiative to ask for trading from a strong team and came to a weak team to increase the appearance time and play more games. From the current perspective, she chose the right choice, and made 20 minutes into two games, and was valued by the team, and she also played at her due level. I hope Li Yueru gets better and better.
