The official document of Beijing Control Club calls on the CBA League to protect athletes, abandon verbal and physical violence, and maintain the competition environment!
On January 29, Liao Sanning's 21st birthday, he suffered one of the worst injuries of his career. On January 30, Liao Sanning completed surgery and hit three miniature titanium plates to fix it. After the operation was completed, Liao Sanning recorded a video to thank the fans who cared about him and said that the operation was a success. I will recover as soon as possible and return to the stadium as soon as possible.
According to domestic media reports, Liao Sanning may have been reimbursed this season. So far this season, Liao Sanning has played 28 games for Beijing Control, averaging 31.1 minutes per game, scoring 14 points, 4.5 boards, 5 assists and 1.2 steals. He shot 45.2 percent from the field and 29.2 percent from three-point range. As a rookie born in 2001, such data is already good.
In the three games before the injury, Liao Sanning scored 30 points, 12 points and 24 points respectively, and has become a young player that Beijing Control has focused on cultivating. Injuries are an athlete's biggest enemy, especially for rookies, and injuries can have a cascade of negative effects. When you come back from recovery, you will probably lose your place on the team.
Liao Sanning is a native of Nanning, Guangxi, his grandfather was the principal of a sports school, and his father was a sports worker. Liao Sanning has developed a strong interest in basketball since he was a child, and he also played various amateur games with his father. In 2013, Li Qun brought 12-year-old Liao Sanning to Dongguan Basketball School, laying a solid foundation for him to enter the professional basketball world.
In 2018, in the national "Basketball School Cup" U17 final, Liao Sanning became famous. He scored 25 points in the final and led Dongguan Basketball School to a 56-50 victory over the Jiangsu U17 men's basketball team. Dongguan Basketball School won the championship, and Liao Sanning was also awarded the MVP of the competition. In the second youth meeting in the summer of 2019, Liao Sanning averaged 22.6 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists per game, once again proving his strength.
In the 2019-20 season, Liao Sanning was given the opportunity to go to Lee Academy High School in the United States, and he also plans to play in the AAU League until he graduates from high school to compete in the NCAA. But the epidemic disrupted Liao Sanning's plans, and in June 2020, he chose to return to China and join the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball youth team. In the 2021-22 season, he began playing in the CBA.
May Liao Sanning recover as soon as possible and return to the stadium as soon as possible! I also hope that injuries can stay away from the players!
