The leak of a past image has brought the past interaction between Cui Yongxi (2003) and Wang Junjie (2005), the two new generation Chinese basketball players, back to the public eye. Many people may not know that these two young people whose popularity has soared this summer have actually been sweating on the training ground in a foreign country. Choi Yongxi, two years older, and Wang Junjie, who always can't hide his smile on his face, were both members of the Australian NBA Academy. A group photo of the players having a dinner in a Chinese restaurant at that time recorded those green years. In the photo, not only Josh Giddy, who has grown into a "quasi-All-star" in the NBA, but also two hope stars in the Asian basketball world, Choi Yongxi and Wang Junjie, and even the main player of the Korean forward, Lu Junxi. This experience of training in top youth training camps has undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for their future careers.

In the leaked video data, there is also a video that happened on the court, which vividly shows the character characteristics of the two at that time. In the video, Choi Yongxijun introduced his teammates to the camera in fluent English, looking calm and responsible. When the camera was given to Wang Junjie, the iconic and unhidden smile on his face became the highlight of the entire picture, showing his true nature. This precious image is not only a testimony to their friendship, but also a preview of their different future development paths. One is restrained and mature, the other is sunny and cheerful, and both of them have shown extraordinary talents on the basketball road. After playing the "strongest summer job" performance in the Asian Cup, Wang Junjie has returned to the United States to continue his "leveling" career in the NCAA. His goal is very clear, that is, to use the American College Basketball League as a springboard and ultimately strive for the NBA, the highest palace in the world basketball. Judging from the latest developments, he has been involved in the joint training of the University of San Francisco men's basketball team, and even had a direct conversation with another young player in the United States, Zhao Weilun, who was part of a different group in a team competition. In the training video, Wang Junjie once again showed off his signature back-to-body singles skills, showing a good competitive state. This thorny road to studying in the United States tests not only his football skills, but also his patience and willpower. Countless Chinese fans are cheering him from afar.

is different from the path Wang Junjie chose, Cui Yongxi is about to start a new stage of his career in China. It is reported that he will return to China in a few days and first participate in the China tour series held by basketball superstar LeBron James in the Northwest as a special guest, which is enough to prove his current business value and influence in China. He will then go to Guangdong Hongyuan Club to meet. Although the official has not officially announced it, multiple reliable sources have long confirmed that he will join the traditional CBA giant through a heavy deal. On the one hand, they choose to hone their personal skills in higher-level leagues, and on the other hand, they join top domestic clubs to strive for team honors. Cui Yongxi and Wang Junjie, these two former comrades-in-arms, are following two different trajectors, heading towards their respective bright futures.
