As a potential rising star who was once the focus of the Bayi men's basketball team, Guo Haowen once emerged in the national youth period, when guo Haowen, who represented the Chinese men's basketball team in the U19 World Youth Championship, cut a triple-double of 34 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists in the match against Puerto Rico, becoming the first Chinese player to play a triple-double in the tournament. Back in the CBA league, Guo Haowen also had a good performance in his rookie season (18-19 season), averaging 9.13 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in 17.6 minutes of playing time, and at that time, Guo Haowen was only 18 years old, and he could hand over such a data list, which was indeed expected in the future.
And the reason why Guo Haowen did not get too much playing time, the immaturity of experience is indeed an important factor, after all, the team at that time in the backfield there are Han Shuo, Arslan and other senior players, and Guo Haowen as a fledgling rookie, naturally will not have a particularly high tactical status, under the then coach Wang Zhizhi, he basically can only occasionally play offensive and defensive conversions, but where the position falls, basically handed over to the more experienced Han Shuo to deal with, so as long as there are some low-level mistakes, Or a few shots to hit the iron, Guo Haowen will be replaced by Wang Zhizhi and sit on the cold bench. But this is precisely the most common mistake for young players, and if he is not given enough room to make mistakes, then his fault tolerance rate will only get smaller and smaller.
Because the tactical status of the team is not high, coupled with a series of negative news off the field in the middle of the second season, Guo Haowen was also directly blocked by the Bayi men's basketball team and once disappeared from the public eye. After the Bayi men's basketball team officially withdrew from the CBA stage in the 20-21 season, Guo Haowen was also able to lift the ban and ushered in a comeback in the Shanghai men's basketball team, and it coincided with the shortage of manpower in the team's backcourt at that time, basically relying on a Luo Hanchen to single out the beam, Guo Haowen's joining, but also the Shanghai fans placed high hopes. Throughout the season, he played 15 games for Shanghai, averaging 13.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game in 25.9 minutes of playing time, and also gained sufficient shooting rights when playing time was guaranteed, which also made Guo Haowen finally cash in his talent.
After the end of the season, Guo Haowen also intends to participate in this year's NBA draft, under the operation of the agency, Guo Haowen can also go to the United States in the offseason, and Jaylen Sagas, Evan Mobley and other popular rookies to train together, perhaps in this training time to see the gap between himself and these talented players from all over the world, so that Guo Haowen chose to abandon the final moment, returned to the CBA to continue training, waiting for the time to be ready to attack the NBA again. Although he failed to successfully run for the election, the special training in the United States during this period also greatly improved Guo Haowen's ball skills. After returning to the Shanghai men's basketball team this season, Guo Haowen scored 28 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block in the fourth peak showdown with Guangdong, creating the best performance of the season. Although it failed to help Shanghai win, Guo Haowen's progress was indeed visible to the naked eye if it was able to break the high-intensity defense of this champion division.
After 8 games (with 2 rounds off), Guo Haowen could efficiently contribute 16.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3 assists in only 22.3 minutes of playing time, and the three shooting rates were 59.4%. 41.2 percent and 80 percent, with points and three shooting percentages both setting the highest points of his CBA career. In order to cultivate this 21-year-old young man, Li Chunjiang can be described as painstaking, not hesitating to sacrifice the veteran Kolan Baike and the former Guangsha love general Liu Zheng's original tactical position. In terms of key balls, it was basically left to him and Franklin to handle.
Although Guo Haowen's average of 2.3 turnovers per game this season has created the highest value in his career, but compared to the previous mistakes made in Bayi directly sitting on the cold bench, this time in Shanghai Guo Haowen can be said to be cultivated as the core of the team, Li Chunjiang gave him a sufficient fault tolerance rate, although from time to time to "spit out the fragrance" of the beloved disciple, but Yan Shi out of the high apprentice, if you really do not strict requirements for him, according to Guo Haowen's habits, it is easy to flutter, want to play the best performance of his career this season, it is even more foolish. However, the season is still very long, and if Guo Haowen can maintain such a stable output, it will really be a transformation.
