The CBA playoffs are in full swing. However, there is also heavy news that Cui Yongxi of the Guangzhou men's basketball team has announced that he will participate in the NBA2024 draft! Prior to this, Yang Hansen, who has attracted attention in the CBA, has announced that he will not participate in the NBA draft for the time being. So, as the only two local players in the CBA who have been linked to the NBA, which of the two is more talented, or who is closer to the NBA?
Let's compare the two of them in the CBA this season.
常规赛
In the regular season, Choi Yong-hee played in 50 games, scored a total of 783 points, ranking 29th in the league, and also scored 302 rebounds, 165 assists, 17 blocks and 83 steals, ranking 27th, 165th, 70th and 10th in the league.
Choi Yong-hee made 88 of 242 three-pointers, ranking 37th and 37th in both stats, and he made 159 free throws all season, ranking 53rd in the league.
Yang played in 51 games, scoring 762 points, 549 rebounds, 199 assists, 112 blocks and 36 steals, ranking 31st, 4th, 29th, 1st and 87th in several statistics. He made 218 free throws, which ranked 22nd in the league, and he had 33 double-doubles all season, ranking third in the league.
Judging from the situation in the regular season, Yang Hansen's statistics are better.
季后赛
Yang Hansen played two games in the playoffs, averaging 8 points, 13.5 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists per game! Compared with the regular season, the data is mainly due to the serious decline in scoring data, and the average points per game have not been double-doubled! This shows that Yang Hansen is still a little uncomfortable in the face of high-intensity confrontation.
Choi Yong-hee averaged 17.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game in the playoffs! This statistic is 2 points higher than his average data per game in the regular season!
Horizontal comparison, Choi Yong-hee's playoff play and role are more intuitive!
去NBA,崔永熙前景如何?
Through a horizontal comparison with Yang Hansen's data, Choi Yongxi's performance in the regular season is basically the same as Yang's, and his performance in the playoffs is better. However, Choi Yong-hee's position is forward, and this position is much more competitive for Asian players than Yang Hansen's center! Choi Yong-hee, come on!
