After the CBA window opened, each team began to make certain adjustments, some teams introduced local players to strengthen, and some teams introduced foreign aid. As the only team in the all-Chinese class this season, the Jiangsu men's basketball team has bid farewell to the playoff competition in advance, and the record of 4 wins and 24 losses has allowed Li Nan to give up the competition in advance. However, the Jiangsu men's basketball team in this window period is also completed an important signing, CBA hope star Liu Zexi has joined the Jiangsu men's basketball team, has now followed the team training, the future will represent the Jiangsu men's basketball team, to Li Nan in the back line to provide more help, eager to make a splash.
Liu Zexi is a young player trained by the Jiangsu men's basketball youth team, 1 meter 9 tall, only 18 years old this year, once led the Jiangsu men's basketball team to win the bronze medal in the 14th Games Futsal Basketball Men's Under 19 Group Competition, in the face of the luxurious lineup of Beijing Shougang, Liu Zexi cut 24 points and 17 rebounds in the game. More importantly, Liu Zexi also had a magical performance of 50 points and 16 rebounds in a single game, showing extremely strong offensive ability. It is understood that Li Nan is very satisfied with the performance of this young player and will be trained as the core of the team in the future.
The backline rotation of the Jiangsu men's basketball team is also very tense, Shi Hongfei is older, the last few seasons have been plagued by injuries, Shi Yi's ability is also limited, the score of the back line is mainly from Huang Rongqi, Li Nan needs to consider the future of the team. A potential star like Liu Zexi has already issued invitations to him by many teams, and there are teams willing to spend heavy salaries to introduce this youngster, but under the efforts of Li Nan and others, Liu Zexi still chose to leave the team and continue to play for his hometown team.
Although the results of the Jiangsu men's basketball team this season are average, Li Nan's guidance has been affirmed in the use of young players, and in the face of strong teams, the Jiangsu men's basketball team has played a wonderful performance in many games and showed strong tenacity. The reason why Liu Zexi chose to join the Jiangsu men's basketball team is also very simple, Li Nan promised to give him enough playing time and ball rights, if he joins other teams, Liu Zexi's playing time cannot be guaranteed. The lineup configuration of the Jiangsu men's basketball team is still full of potential, and I hope that after having foreign aid next season, Li Nan can lead the team to impact the playoffs.
