After the CBA issued the fine, Zhou Qi also apologized as soon as possible, saying that it was never intentional, and he took the consequences as a warning.
According to the latest fine, Zhou Qi was suspended for 2 games and fined 100,000 yuan for deliberately elbowing Li Jinxiao in the face and was expelled from power on the spot. After the game, it was determined that Zhou Qi's actions violated the spirit of sportsmanship.
Regarding being punished, Zhou Qi said, "In the last game, my behavior should not have happened, and I deeply regret and feel sad about it. Last night, I also contacted Li Jinxiao for the first time, asked about his physical condition, and sincerely apologized to him.
I really didn't mean to hurt people, and in the case of physical confrontation and impact, it was indeed a knee-jerk reaction, not deliberate. No matter how much harm has been caused to Li Jinxiao, I would like to express my deep apologies to Li Jinxiao once again.
I am aware that my actions have caused unnecessary harm to my opponents and fans, and I am very sorry for that. I am willing to take the consequences, take them as a warning, and learn from this experience!"
In the last game, Guangsha reversed by 23 points and chased the total score to 1-2, and after the game, Du Feng admitted that Zhou Qi was expelled, which had a huge impact on the team. Now, he has been suspended for two games, and how Guangdong fills Zhou Qi's vacancy is a huge challenge.
