Recently, an NBA deal about Chinese player Wang Zhelin has attracted many concerns from the outside world, the Lakers have done a number of operations in order to send away veteran Rondo, including sending Wang Zhelin's signing rights to the New York Knicks, Wang Zhelin was selected by the Grizzlies in the second round of the 2016 draft, but did not land in the NBA, the Grizzlies retained the signing rights to follow up the trade to the Lakers, and now the Lakers have traded Wang Zhelin's signing rights to New York, an NBA game has not been played, Wang Zhelin has been traded twice.
Although it is only a signing rights transaction, Wang Zhelin himself also pays attention to this transaction news about himself, and has made a simple small video to respond to the outside world, and alternatively said that he will stay in the Shanghai men's basketball team in the CBA League and will continue to be the hope of the whole village!
The video released by Wang Zhelin was first a photo of himself wearing a Lakers jersey, then a Jersey of the New York Knicks, and finally a reversal, becoming a jersey wearing the Shanghai Shark, while Wang Zhelin also held a fan, the fan said "The hope of the whole village" Although it has a funny meaning, it also reflects the current Wang Zhelin mentality, staying in the Shanghai Shark to play CBA is his pursuit.
Shanghai Sharks in the 2021 offseason through the transfer fee and player trade to get Wang Zhelin, this season is Wang Zhelin's first year to play for Shanghai team, currently contributing an average of 19.2 points and 9.9 rebounds per game, Shanghai team after playing 17 rounds of regular season record reached 14 wins and 3 losses, ranking third in the league, for comparison, Shanghai team last season in the same period of only 5 wins and 12 losses. It can be said that the addition of Wang Zhelin has made the Shanghai men's basketball team make obvious progress. In addition, in order to get Wang Zhelin at that time, the Shanghai Sharks gave a lot of transfer fees, only from this point of view, it will not easily let Wang Zhelin leave, at least need to impact to get a CBA championship will let go.
Considering that Wang Zhelin is now 27 years old, not the 22 years old who was selected at that time, there is no potential to be tapped, once he chooses to stay in the CBA league, the door to the impact of the NBA will be completely closed to Wang Zhelin.
Although there is still a gap between the ability of the players and the NBA level, but the Chinese basketball world in recent years has given up the opportunity to try to impact the NBA, wang Zhelin, Shen Zijie, born in 97, during the youth team's special training in the United States and when representing the Chinese men's basketball team in the NBA Summer League in 2019, he has received invitations to NCAA first-level league teams and contracts from the NBA Development League, and Shen Zijie has chosen to refuse twice.
The NBA theory is not the right path for the development of Chinese basketball, but only from the player's personal ability, being able to have the opportunity to play on a larger stage will certainly improve his personal ability. It's just a pity that Wang Zhelin and Shen Zijie both gave up this opportunity, and also highlighted from another perspective that Zhou Qi's difficulty at this stage, rushing to the Australian League to play and continue to pursue the NBA dream in his heart, Zhou Qi's behavior is commendable!
