The match between Beijing and Liaoning received high attention as both teams are traditional powerhouses. However, during the game, Chen Yingjun suffered an ankle sprain in the third quarter, which had a significant impact on Beijing. Despite this setback, Beijing managed to stabilize in the final quarter when Liaoning was catching up and ultimately secured the victory, a result that brought relief.
The injury process for Chen Yingjun appeared quite severe. While attempting a shot, he stepped on Wang Lanqin's foot. He was even escorted off the court, unable to put any weight on his injured foot, with multiple people supporting him throughout the difficult process.
Fortunately, according to the latest updates, Chen Yingjun's condition is not serious. After the game, Xu Limin addressed Chen Yingjun's injury, stating: "His foot is somewhat swollen, and we've taken X-rays, but he needs to rest temporarily." This statement is reassuring, as Chen Yingjun is the team's offensive core, determining the fluidity of Beijing's offense. If Fang Shuo were to be heavily relied upon in the future, there is a possibility that he could disrupt the rhythm, given his previously proven decline. Chen Yingjun's absence has a considerable impact on the entire team.
The exact number of days he will rest is still unclear, but I personally estimate it to be around 1-2 weeks, considering it's just a swollen foot. Beijing should make an official announcement later, and we also hope he can recover and return as soon as possible. You should know that Beijing's recent record hasn't been great; they finally managed to relieve some pressure by defeating Liaoning. If Chen Yingjun is absent, their subsequent games remain uncertain.
During his trip to the hospital, Chen Yingjun's actions were heartwarming. Throughout the process, he kept watching the game, closely monitoring the outcome. Ultimately, securing the victory allowed Chen Yingjun to breathe a sigh of relief.
