Ferguson enjoyed a barbecue and juice in a large house, scoring 31 points, grabbing 9 rebounds, and dishing out 4 assists to help defeat Sichuan Men's Basketball. Alongside his trainer Wallace, they prepared and savored their own meals, enjoying the feast with fresh juices. Wallace, as Liaoning Basketball's trainer, was most present for Zhao Jiwei during his injury period. He assisted him with resistance training using elastic bands and more, aiming for the quickest recovery possible. The young players of Liaoning Basketball fought bravely on the court, which would not have been possible without the silent contributions of the staff behind them. In the match against Sichuan, Patton was given significant playing time. Yang Ming fielded a new frontcourt lineup featuring Patton and Fu Hao, with Zhao Jiwei, Yan Shouqi, and Wells forming the backcourt. This new starting lineup did not give Liaoning an advantage at the beginning. Patton played very actively, as seen when he aggressively returned to defense and blocked a fast break by Maric. Upon reviewing the video, it was indeed an interference call, even though the ball hit the backboard first, demonstrating Patton's relentless effort on the court. Statistically, Patton not only outperforms Ture but also shows better ability and attitude. After the game, Yang Ming emphasized Patton's positive attitude and professionalism, stating that as long as there are no issues with his abilities, he will be a valuable asset once he integrates and gels with the team. Zhao Jiwei remained a pivotal player in this game, providing multiple precise assists to enable his teammates to…

On the early morning of December 31st, the big foreign aid that Liaoning basketball fans have been looking forward to, Patton, arrived in Shenyang. Upon stepping off the plane, he was warmly welcomed by many fans. The team's staff presented him with flowers, welcoming him to the Liaoning Bensteel men's basketball family. It can be seen that Patton is very happy to join Liaoning Basketball. He opens his arms and embraces the staff, waving his hands happily. From a distance, you can see the tall figure pulling a suitcase coming over. Patton stands at 2 meters 11 centimeters, appearing very lively and cheerful, almost like a sunny big boy, which fits the temperament of Liaoning Basketball very well. In fact, after cutting Aqiu'er, the team first sought out Patton, but due to family reasons, his wife giving birth, it delayed for some time, so they temporarily found Ture to come, to transition and play a few games. Unexpectedly, Ture turned out to be a subpar foreign aid. In the game against Beijing Shougang, he couldn't hold up Tariq Gariniu, and even had difficulty playing one-on-one against Chen Yingjun. At 2 meters 13 centimeters tall, his physical strength is average, and his basic skills under the basket are too poor. He could even miss three-point shots, which is not at all the level expected of a foreign aid. Patton, on the other hand, is much stronger than Ture. Last season, he played for Shanxi Men's Basketball Team, averaging 6.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, and 1.5 blocks per game…
