On June 24, Beijing time, the NBA draft was held at the Barkley Center, Paul Banquero became the new draft pick, and Chet Homegren became the top spot and will go to the Thunder. Big hit Jabari Smith is a flower seeker and was picked by the Rockets. Although Zeng Fanbo, who has attracted the attention of Chinese fans, participated in the draft, no one had to lose the election from beginning to end. Although in theory there are still opportunities to impact the NBA, for example, Jeremy Lin did not successfully enter the NBA through the draft before, in the author's opinion, two points decided that Zeng Fanbo is difficult to become a copy of Jeremy Lin, representing Shougang to fight in the CBA or the final destination.
Zeng Fanbo is 2 meters 11 tall, only 19 years old this year, in theory he still has enough time to impact the NBA, even if the draft is not successful, he can also participate in the summer league or develop the league, in the NBA team when the second reinforcement to strive for a two-way contract, step by step to achieve their NBA dreams, in theory. And Jeremy Lin played a famous role in the NBA as a lost draft.
However, objectively speaking, two factors make it difficult for Zeng Fanbo to become Jeremy Lin. First, the technical characteristics of the two are completely different, Jeremy Lin is a ball-holding defender and has more ball rights on the field. Zeng Fanbo is the no. 4 position of the spatial type, and the ball holding ability is average. Moreover, from the perspective of power confrontation, Zeng Fanbo did not have an advantage. The second is the comparison of data over the air: last year, Zeng Fanbo joined the NBA Development League Ignition Team. Last season, he averaged 5.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.5 blocks, and in the previous year, Jeremy Lin averaged almost 20 points per game in the development league, and finally failed to enter the NBA again, so it is not difficult to see that the current Zeng Fanbo does not have the strength to impact the NBA.
If Zeng Fanbo fails to storm the NBA, Beijing Shougang will be his platform to realize his dream of a professional basketball league.
