He is simply able to attack and defend! Are the Pelicans inside star becoming more and more courageous in the African Cup?

Basketball

In the previous 1/8 match of the men's basketball team in the African Cup, Cameroon defeated the Democratic Congo 77-68 and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals. Next, Cameroon will compete with Egypt for a semi-final seat, while Democratic Congo will be eliminated.

In this game, the key figure who helped Cameroon win was the team's starting center Yves Missi. Missy played 32 minutes and 42 seconds in the whole game, made 7 of 12 shots, 1 of 1 from outside the three-point line, and 5 of 9 free throws, and got the highest score of 20 points plus 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block. It also included 4 frontcourt rebounds, 1 turnover and 2 fouls, with a plus-minus value of +8. Missy defeated all sides on the offensive end and showed her comprehensive scoring ability. He had a high threat at the basket. He even made a three-pointer, which was even more eye-catching. He also proved that he was able to take on a lot of responsibilities on the offensive end. Missy's performance on the defensive end is also quite good. He can also play his role in the defensive end and provide a lot of support to the team in terms of rebound protection and inside defense. Missy is undoubtedly the mainstay of Cameroon, and his outstanding performance is also a key factor in the team's successful advancement to the next round.

Since the start of the African Cup, Missy has played 3 games in the first four games, averaging 27.5 minutes per game, with averaging 16.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.7 blocks, including 3.7 frontcourt rebounds, 1.7 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 53.3%, a three-point shooting percentage of 50%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 60%, with a plus-minus average of +2. Missy's performance in these games can be said to be getting better. His threat on the offensive end is constantly increasing, and his score in each game is also increasing. His role on the offensive end is to exceed everyone's expectations. Not only that, Missy's performance on the defensive end is also remarkable. He can play his value in rebounding protection and rim protection. Overall, Missy's performance so far can be considered both offensive and defensive, and he is also an important factor in Cameroon's ability to enter the quarterfinals.

Misch was born in May 2004 and is 211cm tall and weighs 107kg. He is the inside star from Baylor University selected by the New Orleans Pelicans in the 21st pick in the first round in the NBA Draft last year. Last season, he got a lot of playing time and performance opportunities in the Pelicans, and he also showed quite good talent and potential. However, he is a little rough in terms of technology, and his support for the team on the offensive end is relatively limited. In this African Cup, it seems that he has indeed made some progress, and his importance in the team is also visible to the naked eye. I don’t know if he can find confidence through this African Cup and perform at a higher level in the NBA field in the new season.
