China registered another comfortable victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina 124-57 in the women's basketball warm-up game for the Asia Cup in Jinan, east China's Shandong Province, on Sunday.

China had already defeated their opponents 101-55 on Friday, but provided an even better performance on the offensive end this time, leading the first quarter 30-8 and increasing it to 67-21 in the first half.

With a huge margin throughout the game, China's head coach Gong Luming took the opportunity to try different combinations and tactics.

China hit 17 three-pointers from 32 attempts. Yang Shuyu scored a game-high 22 points, with five assists and six steals, while 18-year-old Zhang Ziyu collected 16 points and seven rebounds.

China will face Japan in the next warm-up game in Xi'an, northwest China's Shaanxi Province, on Wednesday.
