China won another gold from women’s basketball in the 2018 Asian Games after defeating Unified Korea with a score of 71-65 in the final game at Senayan Stadium, Jakarta, on Saturday.

It was the seventh victory for China, making it the country with the most wins in women’s basketball in the 2018 Asian Games.

Efficiency and strength were the key factors in China's win, as they secured 45 rebounds in the game, or 14 times more than Unified Korea's rebounds.

On the other side, Unified Korea attempted more three-pointers during the match but with only 29 percent accuracy in 17 attempts. The same cases occurred with free throws, which only reached 76 percent.

China dominated the match with all players who played more than 10 minutes contributing at least two points for their team’s victory.
