CBA Triple Crown champion Beijing Shougang has not performed well this season, and after coach Lydon was sacked, the new coach Jorio did not lead Beijing Shougang out of the slump, and his ability to adjust on the spot was unanimously questioned by Beijing fans and the media. Although Beijing Shougang barely won a place in the playoffs, they were still eliminated by the local tyrant team Shanghai without any suspense. After the end of this season, the contracts of Beijing Shougang's two champions, Zhu Yanxi and Zhai Xiaochuan, expired, and both of them expressed the idea of staying in the team, but from the perspective of the lineup, Beijing Shougang is currently in urgent need of completing the replacement of the old and the new.
After Beijing Shougang was eliminated, many fans also contributed to the reconstruction of Beijing Shougang. Recently, many domestic self-media broke the news: Beijing Shougang is likely to send away the team's inner core Fan Ziming through a 3-for-1 transaction this summer. 26-year-old Fan Ziming, who is 2.11 meters tall, averaged 14.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game in 50 games for Beijing Shougang in the regular season this season. During Du Feng's coaching of the Chinese men's basketball team, Fan Ziming was selected for the Chinese national team and represented the men's basketball team in the men's Asian Cup. The Beijing Shougang team hopes to use Fan Ziming, plus a player and some cash as trading chips, to get their playmaker Sun Minghui from Zhejiang Guangsha.
Sun Minghui's contract with Zhejiang Guangsha will expire at the end of this season, and the Beijing team's backcourt core Fang Shuo is older, the young player Zhang Cairen's growth rate is slow, and the Beijing team lacks an organizational offensive core, and Sun Minghui is undoubtedly the best candidate. As the backcourt brain of Zhejiang Guangsha, Sun Minghui sorted out Guangsha's offense in an orderly manner, and he and Hu Jinqiu formed Guangsha's domestic double star, if it were not for injury factors, Zhejiang Guangsha was likely to become a strong contender for the championship this season. If Guangsha can't reach an agreement with Sun Minghui on contract renewal, Guangsha is likely to use Sun Minghui's important trading chip to exchange for powerful players from other teams to strengthen the lineup.
If Beijing Shougang and Zhejiang Guangsha are successfully completed, the swap transaction between Sun Minghui and Fan Ziming, Fan Ziming, who joined Zhejiang Guangsha, will form Guangsha's domestic inner twin towers with Hu Jinqiu, the inner line of Guangsha. Hu Jinqiu has been plagued by injuries in the last two seasons, which is not unrelated to Guangsha's overuse of him. The addition of Fan Ziming can reduce the pressure on Hu Jinqiu on the inside. The Beijing Shougang team can get the new and old replacement of the guard line after the completion of Guangsha bigwig Sun Minghui through this deal. From both perspectives, this deal can be called a win-win deal for Zhejiang Guangsha and Beijing Shougang.
