The Shanghai men's basketball team in the CBA league has suffered a major blow recently, and the team's core point guard "Li Tianrong" has been determined to be reimbursed this season due to a fractured palm. Lee's absence is a huge loss for the team, averaging 10.8 points per game and shooting 50 percent from three-point range.
In order to make up for Li Tianrong's vacancy, the Shanghai men's basketball team urgently recalled Guo Haowen, hoping that he could help the team and make every effort to hit the top eight. But Guo Haowen may not be a savior, and he may not be able to completely replace Li Tianrong. Lee's injury occurred during a match against Shandong, where he was poked in the hand during a breakaway, resulting in a fracture. Lee's injuries were initially diagnosed as metacarpal fractures and were expected to require a lengthy recovery period. This means that he will not be able to play the rest of the regular season, even the playoffs.
It was a heavy blow for the Shanghai men's basketball team, as Li Tianrong was the team's leading scorer and one of the rotation guards. The head coach of the team, Liu Peng, needs to make tactical and personnel adjustments to maintain the team's results. Despite the difficulties, Liu Peng is still full of confidence in the team's goal of hitting the top eight. Recently, the Shanghai team has quietly rushed to seventh place in the standings, and he believes that the team can achieve good results in the playoffs.
However, Guo Haowen's state this season is not ideal, he played 9 games for the Shanghai men's basketball team after his comeback, averaging 14.3 minutes per game, contributing 5.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists, shooting 34.1% from the field, 28.6% from three-point range, and 65.4% from the free throw line, all of which have set a new career low. Therefore, it remains to be seen whether he can be the savior of the team.
Overall, Li Tianrong's injury is a major blow to the Shanghai men's basketball team, but the team is still confident of hitting the top eight. The addition of Guo Haowen may bring some changes to the team, but his performance this season is not ideal, and whether he can replace Li Tianrong remains to be tested by time!
