Liaoning defeats Xinjiang 115-89 in CBA regular season. Liaoning's performance was impeccable, with a defensive intensity comparable to the playoffs and high offensive efficiency, allowing them to maintain an advantage throughout the game and secure victory.
Two players received perfect scores for their performance. In particular, Wells delivered without any issues, consistently contributing points in each quarter, especially during the team's low moments, where he could score consecutively using his individual abilities. He scored a total of 50 points, which is already a remarkable feat. Liaoning made a great signing with Wells. Wang Lanqin was ready to play, despite not being recognized by Yang Ming previously. Today, he had a high offensive efficiency, scoring 20 points, and also showed great defensive intensity, making him a reliable asset.
Han Dejun, Li Xiaoxu, Fergie, Yu Zechen, Zhang Chenzhifeng, and Li Huoyi all performed satisfactorily. Especially Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu, their greatest value lies in protecting the rim. Since other players did not protect rebounds well, the game relied on these two to grab rebounds. Ultimately, they combined for 20 rebounds, which is already a good enough number. Although Li Xiaoxu's shooting percentage wasn't great, his value on the court isn't lacking. Li Huoyi didn't get much playing time, but he was fully engaged defensively, recording 5+3 assists, earning full marks for attitude.
Fergie was doing well in the first half, but unfortunately, due to physical discomfort, his energy levels dropped in the second half, along with his shooting percentage. Even so, when given opportunities, he could still seize them, providing significant relief to Wells. He scored 13 points in total, with decent defense, and his contributions were commendable. Yu Zechen and Zhang Chenzhifeng could still maintain their performance during garbage time, one scoring a three-pointer, the other stabilizing under the basket.
Fu Hao and Yan Shouqi both had poor performances. Fu Hao was doing okay in the first half, at least with 2 steals. However, he wasted too many opportunities with only 3 out of 9 shots made, and his defense had no impact in the second half. Yan Shouqi was also lost, missing shots offensively and contributing almost nothing defensively, leading to minimal impact on both ends of the court.
