"Guo Shiqiang has always told us that even if you are a college player, as long as you work hard, you will be given a chance! Guo Dao has formulated an offseason training plan for us, hoping that Guangzhou team can become a real strong team next season, and entering the national team is always my goal, although I am not capable enough now, but I will continue to work hard. Recently, Guangzhou player Zhu Mingzhen accepted an interview with the media, while revealing that he will renew his contract with Guangzhou team, Zhu Mingzhen and Guangzhou team's 2-year A rookie contract has ended, the two sides will sign a B contract, we also want to congratulate Zhu Mingzhen, got a big contract, this is an affirmation of him.
Most of the CBA teams rely on youth training to train players, such as Liaoning, Guangdong, Shenzhen, Xinjiang, Shandong, etc.; some teams rely on buying, such as Beijing Shougang, Shanghai, Beijing Men's Basketball, Qingdao and so on. There is only one team in the CBA that has risen by the draft, and that is the Guangzhou team! Guo Kai, Chen Yingjun, Jia Mingru and Zhu Mingzhen all came to Guangzhou through the CBA draft, and under the tutelage of Guo Shiqiang, the progress was obvious. This success of the Guangzhou team is difficult to replicate, the Guangzhou team has not entered the CBA for a long time, there is no mature youth training system, the boss is not willing to invest too much to buy players, and can only supplement the combat effectiveness through the draft conference, fortunately, the talent vision of the Guangzhou team is still relatively unique, plus there is Guo Shiqiang, a good coach.
Zhu Mingzhen was selected by the Guangzhou team with the second pick in the 2020 CBA Draft, Zhu Mingzhen was lucky, just entered the CBA to meet Guo Shiqiang, and the rookie season Zhu Mingzhen became the starter of the Guangzhou team. This season, Zhu Mingzhen can average 12.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, shooting 49% from the field and 39% from three-point range, which is already a statistic for the top CBA forwards, and the three-point shooting has improved a lot and the defense is also very good. However, in the playoffs, Zhu Mingzhen's performance is very general, with The three games with The Shanxi team, averaging nearly 40 minutes per game, only 10 points, and the efficiency is relatively low, with only 32% of the two-point shooting rate and only 26% of the three-point shooting rate. For a young player who has only played in the CBA for two years, Zhu Mingzhen still has a lot of room for improvement, and he also said that he will train hard in the offseason and continue to hone his skills.
Zhou Peng, Ren Junfei, Zhai Xiaochuan, these forwards are older, Zhu Mingzhen, Zhang Zhenlin, Qi Lin, Fu Hao, these CBA hope stars, is the future of the Chinese men's basketball team.
