On May 30, according to domestic media reports, the Tianjin team had the idea of ​​naturalizing the inside and foreign aid David James, but there has been no substantial progress yet. According to the fact that James has settled in China and has family members, if the Tianjin Men's Basketball Team offers a relatively sincere contract offer, James has a plan to settle in China for a long time, which is indeed the most suitable candidate at present, almost no one.

James is 29 years old this year. He has played for three seasons in the Tianjin Men's Basketball Team. Compared with most super foreign players, James is not the kind of top foreign players who can completely determine the trend of the game with his personal ability. However, James can guarantee a strong lower limit. There is no technical shortcomings on the offensive end. As long as he is physically sufficient, he can meet the needs of the Chinese men's basketball team at the Asian level, especially familiar with the current situation of the Chinese men's basketball team. If Zhao Rui, Zhou Qi, Zeng Fanbo, Hu Mingxuan, Zhao Jiwei and others stay healthy and then configure James to compete with the national team led by Japan, Lebanon, and Iran. The Chinese men's basketball team has ushered in the backbone on the offensive end. Guo Shiqiang can also prepare for the national team-level game tasks based on the CBA team.

is only 2-3 months away from this year's Asian Cup. If the Tianjin Men's Basketball Team does not make substantial progress, at least under the guidance of the relevant procedures of the Basketball Association, even if the club intends to accelerate the naturalization process, it is more difficult to catch up with the Asian Cup game. On the contrary, once the Asian-level game fails to introduce naturalized players to play, it is extremely difficult to achieve results. In addition to Australia, New Zealand's two traditional strong teams, Japan, Lebanon and other teams, also have naturalized players. Among the Chinese Men's Basketball Team players, Zhou Qi, Zhao Rui and others have certain injuries. It has been many World Championships that have proved that it is difficult to achieve the goal of carrying the banner alone. As the current head coach of the men's basketball team, Guo Shiqiang needs to ensure results, which is a very critical factor, and it is also an important stage to save the Chinese men's basketball team at a low point. Most Asian teams have naturalized players in charge. It is not realistic for the Chinese men's basketball team to continue to focus on Zhou Qi, Zhao Rui, Zhao Jiwei and others. After Yi Jianlian retired, Chinese basketball has no world-class players. Yang Hansen went to the United States to participate in the NBA draft. Zeng Fanbo is not sure about playing. Perhaps the outside world needs to lower the performance requirements of the Asian Cup.
