On May 5, Beijing time, according to US media reports, among the Asian players who automatically qualified for the 2022 NBA draft this year, they were Zeng Fanbo, Yu Jiahao, and Soto (American high school graduation + one year of professionalism). Guo Haowen is a national player who has reached the age of 22. Chinese players here are all post-00s players to determine the challenge to the NBA, and Zhang Zhenlin is 23 years old, belongs to the overage player, can only play in the summer league as a free agent, or a team under the G League, which means that the conditions Zhang Zhenlin faces, overall, are the most difficult, and also the oldest Chinese player to challenge the NBA league this summer.
From the level of Zeng Fanbo's joint trial training, it can basically be said that among Chinese players, the player who is favored by the NBA is also a management team that proves that he is 19 years old, excellent athletic ability, and strong business ability, which is the embodiment of Zeng Fanbo's advantages. The entire NBA league may not lack forward players with explosive physical fitness, but they can hold the ball, have the ability to shoot three-pointers, coupled with a height of about 2 meters 10 meters, backed by the Chinese market, can attract huge market exposure, Zeng Fanbo is expected to get the second round of the pick.
Yu Jiahao is the no. 5 position of the traditional interior line, with a height of 2 meters 20, has been in high school in the United States before, the adaptability is not too much of a problem, but from the current league, he is not a stable medium and long-distance projection ability of the big player, unless it is to get the special attention of the follow-up NBA team, otherwise, if you want to get the possibility of being selected, you need to train in the United States, or in the training camp, play enough to prove their performance.
Guo Haowen is 22 years old, automatically get the draft opportunity, for him, has missed the best time to log on to the NBA draft, in this regard, this time to the United States special training, the probability will also enhance their own main, in order to find their own position, once all aspects can not meet expectations, it is possible to quit the NBA draft like last year.
Zhang Zhenlin is the most unexpected part, 23-year-old overage players, continue to toss with a group of draft players, essentially there is not much sense, if you decide to challenge the NBA, the best way is to play the NBA Summer League directly, get more self-presentation opportunities, rely on his physical fitness, 2 years of professional league experience, and some of the lost draft to compete for positions, has a certain advantage, but it is also difficult to have NBA teams directly send out contracts, in this process, will face extremely cruel selection and competition, Zhang Zhenlin is needed to prove himself.
