On March 29, the CBA officially announced the winner of the 2021-22 regular season MVP, and Hu Jinqiu from the Guangsha men's basketball team was elected as he wished, which was also the first time in his career that he received this honor.
Previously, the CBA official listed a total of 12 MVP candidates, namely: Hu Jinqiu, Shen Zijie, Chen Yingjun, Sun Minghui, Zhao Jiwei, Zhao Yanhao, Fan Ziming, Wu Qian, Zhu Xuhang, Zhu Junlong, Gu Quan, Yu Jiahao. In the end, the contribution value reached 8.99, and Hu Jinqiu, who ranked first among all candidates, stood out.
Hu Jinqiu, who has experienced the Tokyo Olympics, has improved in terms of timing and personal skills in handling the ball this season, playing a total of 37 times, averaging 21 points and 7.6 rebounds in 31.6 minutes per game, although the data is slightly lower than last season, but the number of shots has decreased from 14.3 to 11.8 last season, the shooting rate has risen from 64.8% to 73.1%, the highest of all players. In addition, Hu Jinqiu's three-point shooting rate this season is 33.3%, more than double that of last season (15.8%).
In the Guangsha team, Hu Jinqiu's role is irreplaceable, his playing time and scoring rank first in the team, rebounds and blocks rank third, and shooting percentage ranks second. It is worth mentioning that Hu Jinqiu's average score per game also ranks third among all local players in the league, and he is the only player in the all-star Southern Division starting lineup this season who is not from the Guangdong men's basketball team.
In the third stage, after the arrival of Okafor, Hu Jinqiu had a better chemical reaction with the former NBA tanhua show, with the "twin towers" sitting on the inside line, and the Guangsha men's basketball team ranked second after the regular season, second only to the leader Liaoning men's basketball team. The team's outstanding performance is a major reason why Hu Jinqiu overpowered the candidates to be elected MVP.
Since the 2015-16 season began to represent the Guangsha men's basketball team in the CBA, Hu Jinqiu has rapidly grown into the mainstay of the team, is a "model worker" in the team, plays extremely stable, and is a player with good character and ball quality. This season, Hu Jinqiu's personal data is bright, and his team has achieved good results, so his election as MVP is well deserved.
