Chinese Players' NBA Single-Game Highest Scores: Zhou Qi with 6 Points, Yi Jianlian with 31 Points, Yao Ming's Record Ceiling A total of seven Chinese players have competed in official NBA games: Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, Mengke Bateer, Sun Yue, Yi Jianlian, and Cui Yongxi. Let's take a look at their brightest moments on the NBA court. Cui Yongxi Although Cui Yongxi's NBA career lasted only a few months, his efforts and dedication to his dreams are still commendable. On December 3, 2024, in a game between the Nets and the Bulls, Cui Yongxi scored 2 points and 2 rebounds with 1 out of 6 shots, which is currently his highest scoring record in an NBA game. Zhou Qi On November 23, 2017, in a game between the Rockets and the Nuggets, Zhou Qi came off the bench for 12 minutes, made 2 out of 6 shots including 2 three-pointers, and finished the game with 6 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block, and 1 steal, refreshing his personal career scoring record. Sun Yue During the 2009-10 season, Sun Yue performed outstandingly in his debut against the Bucks, coming off the bench for 5 minutes and efficiently scoring 4 points with 2 out of 3 shots. Although his playing time was limited, Sun Yue's performance was still recognized by his teammates and coaches. Mengke Bateer On April 17, 2002, while playing for the Nuggets, Mengke Bateer started in a game against the Timberwolves. Throughout the game, Bateer played for 27 minutes, made 3 out of 11 shots, made…

On the night of January 11th, not only did Fan Ziming lose face, but also the entire Beijing men's basketball team! Netizens hotly debated and pointed out incisively and vividly: Fan Ziming, who is currently on top salary, seems to be working hard in every game, but then performs poorly. He goes back to post on social media after winning against weak opponents, but when he loses or performs badly, it's as if he doesn't even exist. Under the basket, it's either a mismatch or an open basket, but none of them go in, and he even gets blocked twice by the guard. His performance is really too abstract. Players like Fan Ziming, Zhou Qi, and Wang Zhelin are not good enough; they lack fundamentals. Especially Zhou Qi, who plays one game and rests for three. Beijing BAW should practice shooting more tonight because they missed many shots. There is no main shooter, and in the fourth quarter, foreign player No. 5 kept making mistakes while dribbling, wasting time! Fan Ziming has been practicing for so many years in vain. When he gets the ball under the basket, he doesn't look at the hoop first; instead, he looks for the guard first. I'm really convinced. With his physique and height, he should have an advantage under the basket, but on Fan Ziming, it's all disadvantages. Fan Ziming is completely inconsistent with the development of modern basketball. He is soft on offense under the basket, poor at defensive rim protection, unable to create space, and unable to act as a center…

Zhou Qi Out with High Fever, Beijing's 24 Million Contract at Risk?‌ On January 12th, Beijing time, Zhou Qi was forced to rest due to a high fever of 37.6°C, putting his 24 million yuan, four-year contract with Beijing in jeopardy. Netizens are expressing their frustration, calling him a disappointment. Beijing's men's basketball team is currently struggling. In a recent match, they suffered a crushing defeat against Zhejiang. Why did they lose? Zhou Qi unexpectedly announced his absence due to a fever before the game, as he has been frequently unwell this year, either with a cold or a fever. He has already missed three games due to illness, not including those he missed due to injury this season. How can the team compete without him? Prior to this, Zhou Qi had not fully recovered from a cold but insisted on returning for the Liaoning game. After playing against Liaoning, he developed a fever again. For a professional athlete, the frequency of illness seems unusually high. Beijing relies heavily on Zhou Qi, but he is often sidelined due to injuries or illnesses, doing little work while earning a substantial salary. With Beijing investing 24 million yuan in a large contract, it seems like money down the drain if he cannot perform. After the game, Beijing's coach, Xu Limin, expressed his helplessness, stating that Zhou Qi's temperature was measured at 37.6°C in the locker room, so they decided to protect him by letting him rest instead of allowing him to cheer from the sidelines. Zhou Qi wanted to support his teammates…

Zhang Ben Tianjie, who joined Japanese nationality and helped Japan defeat China, now wants to return to China for development?‌ Facing the interview of the reporter, Zhang Ben Tianjie said so. Can you imagine that he used to be a Chinese person when he said this? Born in China, he went to Japan with his father when he was young. Originally thought he would come back to serve the motherland like many overseas students, but he joined the Japanese nationality. Not only that, he also represented the Japanese national team to play against the Chinese team, and even fouled the Chinese players rudely in the game. What makes him so forget his ancestors, and why does he become a target of public criticism with his talent? Immigration to Japan There is a Chinese athlete Zhang Ben Zhihe in the table tennis world, and a naturalized player Zhang Ben Tianjie in the basketball world. However, unlike Zhang Ben Zhihe, who was born in Japan, Zhang Ben Tianjie was born in China. Born in Shenyang, Liaoning, Zhang Tianjie grew up in an athlete family. Father Zhang Jian is a basketball player, grandfather is the head coach of the provincial fencing team, uncle is a badminton player. Mother Zhang Shuping is a volleyball player. After retiring, she went to Japan for further study and later opened a Chinese restaurant in Japan. In the sixth grade of elementary school, he followed his father to Japan to reunite with his mother and stayed in Japan. Thus, the young Zhang Tianjie became a "Japanese". Inheriting the…

Let's take a look back at the highlights of this game. The Guangdong team showed a strong desire to win and excellent tactical execution from the beginning of the match. They were in full bloom on the offensive end and impenetrable on defense, making it difficult for the Beijing team to find a breakthrough. In terms of statistics, Guangdong had a field goal percentage of 52% and a three-point shooting percentage of 40%, which undoubtedly contributed significantly to their victory. The reason why Guangdong was able to gain such a significant lead is not only due to the individual abilities of the players but also because of the chemistry and tactical sophistication they displayed as a team. During the game, Guangdong repeatedly used fast breaks and accurate three-point shots to demoralize Beijing, while also exerting immense pressure on the defensive end. This balanced performance is what allows them to remain invincible on the CBA court. In this game, Morand, Guangdong's interior powerhouse, undoubtedly became one of the team's highlights. He played at an extremely high level on both ends of the court, successfully limiting Beijing's interior play and scoring multiple times using his height and wingspan advantage on offense. More notably, Morand's performance in assisting was also eye-catching. He often created scoring opportunities for his teammates with precise passes after receiving the ball in a high position, adding more vitality to Guangdong's offense. The reason why Morand was able to quickly integrate into the team and perform at such a high level after joining Guangdong is not only due to…

On January 11th, the CBA regular season features four matchups: Shenzhen vs. Shandong, Sichuan vs. Ningbo, Tianjin vs. Jilin, and Zhejiang vs. Beijing. While there aren't many clashes between top teams, most of the matchups involve closely matched opponents, making the competition more intense than expected. Here's a brief pre-game analysis. The game between Zhejiang and Beijing has a small gap in strength, with Zhejiang ranked 6th and Beijing 8th. Both teams face similar issues, mainly injuries to key players. Zhejiang is missing Wu Qian and Yu Jiahao, but fortunately, these are minor issues that won't keep them out for long. Wu Qian has been watching from the sidelines recently and seems in good spirits. Beijing's Chen Yingjun is out due to an ankle sprain and won't be back for the second stage. Zeng Fanbo has a cold, similar to Zhou Qi's situation, and they're alternating absences. Both teams have 19 wins, so even if they lose, they won't drop too far in the standings. Zhejiang has a slight home advantage, but it's uncertain if Yu Jiahao and Wu Qian will return, or even just one of them. Especially in the paint, if they lack height, they'll struggle against Zhou Qi, even if he's not at his peak. However, Zhejiang's advantage lies in their perimeter shooting, with accurate guards like Gabe York and Lu Wenbo, who have strong three-point shooting capabilities. Beijing relies on Germain's individual ability, and if other positions can provide support, their chances of winning increase. Overall, this game is evenly matched, and it's unpredictable who will…

Translation of the article content into English: The CBA league has entered its "deep waters," and the performances of national players are like sharpened blades, revealing a clear hierarchy. If there is one player who stands out as the biggest surprise this season, it must be Xu Jie. With an average of 15.9 points and 7.9 assists per game, he has become the core brain of Guangdong team, firmly occupying the top tier. On the other hand, Zhou Qi, due to his "stop-and-go" state, has become "pending." The stratification of national players reflects the underlying concerns for the future of Chinese basketball: Is it a lack of talent depth, or do injuries lead them astray? This time, the focus of the CBA regular season is not limited to any single match but rather a trend—national players' performances are being reshuffled on a seasonal basis. Judging from the overall data of the first 28 rounds of the CBA, national players can be roughly divided into four tiers, with distinct levels. Tier 1: Xu Jie stands alone, becoming the absolute core of Guangdong team Xu Jie's performance is phenomenal. This season, his average score has soared from 10.9 points last season to 15.9 points, and his assists have increased from 4.9 times to 7.9 times, directly ranking him sixth in the league's assist list. This is not only a breakthrough in statistics but also a change in role. From a "puzzle-type" player on the court to the organizer of the team, his coordination in the offensive end and his initiative in defense…

The CBA regular season is in full swing, with Guangsha welcoming the challenge of the Beijing team. Guangsha men's basketball team defeated the defending champion Liaoning men's basketball team in the previous game, which can be said to have greatly boosted their momentum. The current state of the Beijing team is also good, although they are without Chen Yingjun and Zeng Fanbo, but Beijing's Zhou Qi has returned, which is also the first meeting between the two sides this season. After a fierce battle, Beijing narrowly lost to Guangsha with a score of 79-83. It can be said that Beijing started well, but collapsed in the last quarter. In the last quarter, relying on the outstanding performance of Sun Minghui and Carton, Guangsha launched a counterattack of 13-2 to overtake the score. Although Beijing took the lead again later, Zhu Junlong fouled and made free throws to overtake the score again. In the final moments, Beijing continuously failed to score and had to resort to foul tactics, but then they committed a five-second violation on their own serve. Eventually, Guangsha reversed Beijing 83-79 to win their fifth consecutive victory and also welcomed their 15th consecutive home victory. This game saw Beijing lose due to poor player performance on one hand, and the issue of home whistle bias on the other. This game was played at Guangsha's home court, and the referees were clearly biased towards Guangsha. For example, Zhang Cairen played 10 minutes in the first half, shooting 3 out of 5, including 2 out of 3 three-pointers, scoring 8…

Beijing has lost another game, failing to secure a strong victory that was almost within their grasp, suffering a reversal at the hands of the home team, Guangsha, which they should not have allowed and felt very unwilling about. Throughout the match, only three Beijing players - Lei Meng, Zhang Cairen, and Fan Ziming - performed normally, while the other domestic players and foreign players had low efficiency. Among them, two "moocher" players caused the most harm to the team, with the lowest efficiency and the most turnovers, truly ruining the team and squandering the victory that was almost theirs. Despite the absence of two key players, Chen Yingjun and Zeng Fanbo, Beijing played tenaciously with good defense, holding Guangsha to only 17 points in the first quarter and 34 points at halftime, suppressing Guangsha throughout the game and leading by as many as 17 points. However, in the fourth quarter, Beijing could not withstand the counterattack, losing by 14 points in a single quarter, being overtaken by the opponent. Beijing still had a chance for a buzzer-beater at the end, but missed it, ultimately suffering a 17-point comeback defeat. Guangsha did not perform well in this game, scoring low with a low three-point shooting percentage of only 19%, failing to play to their strengths. It can be said that Beijing did not lose to Guangsha, but rather defeated themselves. The two "moocher" players caused the most harm to Beijing. The first is Fang Shuo, who, despite a severe decline in form, continued to receive heavy reliance from Xu Limin,…

On January 8th, Beijing time, the game between Guangsha and Beijing was a nail-biter that went down to the wire in the final quarter, with Guangsha ultimately pulling off an incredible comeback, winning 83-79. This game marked the debut of Guangsha's super fourth foreign player, Bojan, who proved his worth by dominating Zhou Qi in the limited time he was on the court. More alarmingly, the authority he displayed may well have been intended for Han Dejun and Guangdong. Bojan Marjanovic became Guangsha's fourth foreign player, and for this match against Beijing, Guangsha specifically arranged his debut, with a very simple reason: to deal with the "Great Demon Lord" Zhou Qi. In his brief playing time of just 7 minutes and 26 seconds, Bojan made an impressive showing, going 2-for-3 from the field for 4 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 fouls. Despite the short playing time, the 2.26-meter-tall player executed a ferocious dunk right over Zhou Qi. When Guangsha brought Bojan onto the court, Beijing immediately countered by putting Zhou Qi in to face him, setting up an NBA-level matchup, as both players have NBA experience. However, Zhou Qi didn't have much of an advantage against Bojan. On his first possession, Bojan posterized Zhou Qi with a powerful dunk. Zhou Qi had initially intercepted a pass from the opposing team, but the ball was snatched away by Bojan, who then followed up with a one-handed dunk over Zhou Qi, humiliating him. Zhou Qi was left stunned on the spot after being dunked on, taking a while to recover, as he…
