Liaoning team made a lineup adjustment in this game, Guo Allen did not play, Zhao Jiwei and Fogg partnered in the backcourt. After the start, Zhao Jiwei performed very well, not only on the offensive end, he also sent 7 assists in a single quarter, and the offensive and defensive core had nothing to say. Zhao Jiwei's previous offseason was very hard, in which the preparation of the Chinese men's basketball team consumed a lot of energy, but it was very rare to return to the league to still play a good performance. Zhao Jiwei can be said to have been competing all year round, and the labor model is not blown.
Liaoning team young player Yu Zechen shined on the field, he was a substitute, but played a wonderful performance. Originally, the Liaoning team's front line was Cong Mingchen's start, but he came up many fouls, and head coach Yang Ming had to make adjustments, so Yu Zechen quickly appeared. Yu Zechen first sent a one-arm dunk after the appearance, and then hit two three-pointers in a row at the end of the first quarter, and personally scored 8 points in a single quarter. Yu Zechen became famous in the National Games, but when it came to the CBA regular season, he obviously needed to play to practice, and today it seems that the effect is good.
In the second quarter, the Liaoning team was a bit of a heartbeat, and they who originally led by 8 points in the first quarter were actually overtaken by Ningbo. Fortunately, later Zhao Jiwei continued to lead the team to rush, and his scores and assists revitalized the whole team, and the Liaoning team was able to surpass the score again. Liaoning led 69-62 at halftime and is expected to widen the points difference in the second half.
