105-90, Beijing Ducks won a key victory at home against Liaoning Men's Basketball Team, completing a double kill against Liaoning Men's Basketball Team. In this focus game, Zhou Qi, the main inside player of Beijing Ducks, returned, but due to his recent return, Zhou Qi's competitive state did not reach the best level, and he was still unable to take on the team's offensive responsibilities in the short term. After Chen Yingjun was injured and left the field unexpectedly, the three foreign players of Beijing Ducks were in a very low state, surprisingly, Zhang Cairen, the bench hero, stood out again. He continuously hit key three-point shots and scored 27 points throughout the game, becoming the top contributor to Beijing Ducks' victory.
In this focus game against Liaoning Men's Basketball Team, Zhang Cairen really played the best game of the season. He played for 29 minutes throughout the game, scoring 10 out of 15, including 7 out of 12 three-point shots, scoring 27 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist, with a shooting percentage of 66.7% and a three-point percentage as high as 58.3%. His performance on the court is comparable to that of a super foreign aid. Zhang Cairen really has the temperament of a nerve shooter. He dares to fight and fight in critical moments. When the foreign aid cannot take on the heavy responsibility of the offense, he can dare to shoot three-point shots in critical moments, becoming a big killer on the outside line of Beijing Ducks. Such a fighting spirit is very admirable.
As a meritorious old minister of Beijing Ducks, Zhang Cairen has represented the team for ten seasons, but he has never been able to make a name for himself, and even once became a marginal player. However, relying on his tireless efforts, Zhang Cairen has slowly established himself in Beijing Ducks and become the main rotation on the team's bench. In this much-anticipated game against Liaoning Men's Basketball Team, Zhang Cairen hit several key three-point shots under high-pressure defense, making up for the vacancy caused by Chen Yingjun's injury, and became the trump card for Beijing Ducks in the final quarter.
Although the CBA has opened the foreign aid policy this season, Xu Limin still chooses to believe in local players, which is also the main reason why there are such bench players like Zhang Cairen who burst out. However, in order for Beijing Ducks to go further this season, Xu Limin should also consider strengthening the foreign aid lineup. Jermaine, Omore, and Solomon are not top foreign aids. They do not have the ability to solve games in critical moments. Many times, they have to rely on local players to solve problems on the offensive end, which is easy to be targeted by opponents in the playoffs. It is hoped that Beijing Ducks can solve the problem of foreign aid reinforcement as soon as possible before the end of the second stage to help Chen Yingjun, Zhou Qi, and Zeng Fanbo find more reliable helpers.
