With Franklin's whistle-pressing three-point miss, the Shanghai men's basketball team finally lost to the Guangsha men's basketball team 100-103, and was swept away by a large score of 0-3, officially missing the finals and ending the journey of the season. For a Shanghai men's basketball team that has been restructured for less than a year, they played the third place in the league in the regular season and defeated the Shenzhen men's basketball team 2-0 in the playoffs to advance to the semifinals, which is already a very good result. In the offseason, the Shanghai team can still continue to make adjustments to the lineup and make itself more competitive!
For the Shanghai men's basketball team, next season they will usher in an important reinforcement, that is, Li Hongquan, who is known as "domestic Zion", will most likely join the team and compete with the team in the 2022-23 season. In fact, Li Hongquan signed a contract with the Shanghai men's basketball team as early as the beginning of this season, but in order to be able to exercise himself, he chose to go overseas for a year, and then joined the Melbourne Phoenix, and has now returned to China, and should practice with the Shanghai men's basketball team in the offseason.
Li Hongquan was born in September 2001, with a height of 1 meter 98, an arm span of 2 meters 03, and a weight of 103 kilograms, he has been playing abroad before, and has trained a strong physical fitness, even when fighting against some black players, he did not suffer losses, the last time he saw a Chinese player with such physical fitness was Yi Jianlian! Before joining Shanghai, Li Hongquan had played for NCAA Caspian University (the alma mater of Pelicans guard CJ McCollum), but in the end, because Caspian University did not achieve the core position given before joining, Li Hongquan chose to end his college career early and return to play in the CBA.
It is reported that before Li Hongquan was 16 years old, the Canadian national youth team had launched an invitation to him to represent the Canadian youth team, but Li Hongquan refused this invitation, because if he played on behalf of Canada and did not change his nationality before the age of 16, it meant that Li Hongquan could not play for the Chinese men's basketball team in the future! Shanghai men's basketball team next season in the back line and forward line will have Guo Haowen, Li Hongquan, Li Tianrong and Dai Hao and other people, the largest of them is Li Tianrong, but this year is only 22 years old, the youngest is Dai Hao, 2002 outstanding he is only 20 years old this year, they are very talented players, I believe that the future under the tutelage of Li Chunjiang, can make great progress (Guangsha three giants Sun Minghui, Zhao Yanhao and Hu Jinqiu also grew up from a young age), what they need is time and accumulate enough experience, I believe that one day Li Chunjiang will lead this young Shanghai men's basketball team to set off a "youth storm" in the league!
