On May 23, Beijing time, the dust has settled on this year's CBA finals, and Liaoning swept Xinjiang with a total score of 4-0 to achieve three consecutive championships. Now that the CBA has officially announced a new award, 25-year-old Zhang Zhenlin won the "latest star" in this year's finals, but it has caused a lot of controversy in public opinion.

According to the official information released by the CBA, in this season's finals, Liu Yanyu from Liaoning 2019, Zhang Zhenlin and Yu Zechen from 2020, Zhang Junhao and Li Huyi from 2023, Huang Rongqi from Xinjiang 2017, Qi Lin, Li Yanzhe, Sirzati, and Rutubula from 2019 are all representatives of the new generation of players.

After the finals, among the ten newcomers from Liaoning and Xinjiang, the one with the best performance in the competition was named the "latest star" in the finals.

In the four games of the comprehensive finals, Liaoning's 25-year-old star Zhang Zhenlin played an average of 45 minutes per game, and played a full 48 minutes in the G3 game of the finals.

Zhang Zhenlin became the "latest star" of the finals by virtue of his average of 12 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists per game, plus an average of 0.8 steals and 0.5 blocks per game in the finals.

Zhang Zhenlin has helped Liaoning achieve 3 consecutive championships, but the controversy over the "latest star" in the finals has caused controversy in public opinion, mainly from two levels:

First, the "latest star" of the finals is a new award, which was not awarded in previous seasons, and there are no similar awards in leagues such as the NBA, which naturally raises doubts.

Second, Zhang Zhenlin is 25 years old and has been in the CBA for 4 seasons, and he is also defined as a "rising star", which is undoubtedly biased, after all, the NBA's rookie award is only limited to rookie players, and the rookie challenge is also participated in by first- and second-year players. As for the CBA Star Player Award, it is also a first- and second-year player, and the "latest star" Zhang Zhenlin in the finals is 25 years old, which is undoubtedly a huge deviation from the new star everyone imagined.
