Officially say goodbye to the CBA! The 34-year-old veteran was rejected for a trial and was still not satisfied after taking the 54 million contract. The current CBA league is still in the off-season, the reinforcements and layoffs of each team are in sync, Xinjiang, Shanghai and Qingdao have basically completed the preparations for the new season, while Liaoning, Guangdong and Shougang have basically not moved much. At the same time, many veterans in the league who are in the year of playing have also officially transformed and entered the pension mode in advance, like Zheng Zhun of the Guangzhou team who retired at the age of 29 and became the assistant coach of the Guangzhou team, which is puzzling.
But there is one veteran who does not plan to say goodbye to the CBA, and he is 34-year-old Li Gen. It is reported that Li Gen once went to Shaanxi Xinda for trial training this summer, and the two sides were close to signing a contract and finally failed. After that, Li Gen went to Jilin Team and Nanjing Tongxi Team for trial training, but the effect was not ideal, and the team did not express any intention to keep Li Gen. Li Gen's agents were rejected by the other party after they re-found a home for him, so in this case, the probability of Li Gen returning to the CBA is close to zero.
Li Gen was once an All-Star player in the CBA League, he was selected for the Chinese men's basketball team for many times, and played in important events such as the Olympic Games and the Asian Games, helping the team win the CBA League championship twice during his time with beijing Shougang, becoming the hottest player at that time. However, Qin Xiaowen showed insufficient enthusiasm on Li Gen's contract renewal, and finally Li Gen joined the Xinjiang team and helped the other side win the championship, which made Shougang regret it, after joining the Shanghai team with a high salary of 54 million yuan in three years, Li Gen's injury state fell sharply, and finally he was cleaned up by the team and sold to Beijing North Control.
Li Gen has just fulfilled the last big contract of his career, and it is reported that his annual salary is as high as 28 million, which is the highest in the entire history of the CBA, so Li Gen has also become a representative of high salary and low ability. After being bought out by the Beijing North Control Team, Li Gen never appeared again, and it is reported that during that period, Li Gen was in a fight with his ex-wife and eventually dealt with the court, which also caused him to eventually lose a lot of property. So the current economic situation of Li Gen is relatively bleak, so he needs a chance to re-employment, but also to ease his economy. However, the current CBA is no longer a nursing home, and some veterans want to get pension contracts that are not so easy.
However, Li Gen also does not have to choose the CBA this road, like veterans Song Jianhua, Si Kun, etc. have gone to the Hong Kong League to play, Li Gen can also follow their example to get a high-paying contract, even the field court is also a good choice, as one of the top forwards of the CBA, Li Gen has the ability to prove himself again. However, compared with veterans such as Yi Jianlian, Li Gen's dismal departure now makes people sigh. After taking another 54 million, Li Gen is now the biggest laughing stock of the CBA, and fans think that Li Gen can still get a contract.
