On October 8, Shanxi Zhuyeqing Women’s Basketball Team held a press conference before the new season. According to Zhang Jian, the general manager of Shanxi Women’s Basketball Team, the team has signed two powerful WNBA foreign players, Kelsey Mitchell and Olivier Ogunbowale.
Kelsey Mitchell plays for the WNBA team Fever, is a teammate of super rookie Clarke, and is also a superb scorer. This season, she averages 19.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game, tying with Clarke as the top scorer of the team. Especially after the Olympics, Mitchell was in hot form, once scoring more than 20 points in seven consecutive games, helping Fever return to the playoffs as the sixth seed in the regular season.
Olivier Ogunbowale plays for the Sun, made 37 appearances this season, averaging 11.8 minutes per game, scoring 3.4 points and 2.5 rebounds, and advanced into the playoffs with her team as the third seed in the regular season. Notably, Ogunbowale played for Guangdong Women’s Basketball Team last season, averaging 20.5 points and 11.5 rebounds per game.
The powerful foreign player duo Mitchell and Ogunbowale, coupled with local players such as Wu Tongtong and Liu Yutong, still give Shanxi Women’s Basketball Team considerable competitiveness in the new season.
