After signing Kamiran Sidikejiang, the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team selected another Xinjiang player in the draft, Adili Kurban. At present, Adili has been with the team for more than half a month and is fully preparing for the new season. Yesterday, this reporter interviewed Adili, who said that he hoped that the new season would start from scratch and "fight for his life" for the team in the CBA.
Adili Kurban, born in 1998, is 23 years old. He is 1.91m tall and weighs 86kg and plays as a defender.
Pay attention to the Xunxing men's basketball team for 2 years, often watch live broadcasts at 5 o'clock in the morning
In fact, before being selected by the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team, Adili had a very special understanding of the team. Because in the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team, there is another player from Xinjiang - Kamilan Sidikejiang. The reporter learned that Adili and Kamiran are a pair of good brothers, after Adili returned to China, he also came to Jinjiang to find Kamiran, and the two went to Xiamen Beach for training together.
"I've been following the CBA for a long time, and I've been following the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team for 2 years." Adili joked that the teammates of the Xunxing men's basketball team did not know that he had known them for two years, not only the style of play, but even the habits and characteristics of each person. It turned out that when Adili was in college in the United States, he had been paying attention to every game between Kamiran and the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team. "Since the 2019-2020 season, I have watched the live broadcast of the Xunxing men's basketball team every day, and because of the time difference, I often have to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to watch the game." Adili said that it is a very happy thing to finally enter the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team and become a teammate with his good brother Kamilan.
After coming to the team, Adili and Kamiran can finally fight together. Talking about his good brother, Adili said, "The month I came to the team was the month with the least WeChat chat record in the past 10 years, because we met every day, and if there was anything, I would run directly downstairs to find him." ”
Refuse to give up, burst with energy, position yourself is to "play with your life"
Adili's basketball career began at Fuxin Basketball School and entered the youth teams of Liaoning and Xinjiang. In high school, Adili studied at Sierra Canyon Middle School in Los Angeles, USA, and played for Kennesaw University in the NCAA first-class league, and was the first Chinese Uyghur basketball player to receive a full scholarship from the NCAA first-class league. Representing Kennesaw State in the NCAA First Division in the 2019–2020 season, Adili made 27 appearances and averaged 3.6 points and 2 rebounds per game.
The experience of playing in the United States gave Adili a style of American basketball, but after entering the CBA, Adili felt that he needed to change. "After coming to the Xunxing men's basketball team, the coach assigned me a task, and I may switch between the two roles of organizational guard and shooting guard." Coming to the professional league, Adili believes that the requirements for coaches must be absolutely obeyed, "when I need to organize the team, I will be in tandem, and when I need to score, I will show my strength. Adili's positioning for himself is to "fight for his life."
As for what help he can bring to the team, Adili believes that he is a person who does not give up lightly and always maintains a "momentum". "Just like when I played in the NCAA before, our team is not the top team in the league, and sometimes we are behind the opponents by big scores, and I will still be the first to stand up and cheer on my teammates." After coming to the Xunxing men's basketball team, Adili is the same, in training, Adili's team was once behind, he will still give his teammates encouragement one by one, hoping that they will rekindle the war.
"My personality is like that, if I become very quiet, it will affect the state of the game, and then I really don't know how to play." Adili believes that by shouting and motivating his teammates, he can keep his emotions high, and at the same time, this is also the source of motivation for him to play.
Hope to take off the "variety" label The new season starts from scratch
For domestic fans, the understanding of Adili is through a domestic variety show "This! It's what Slam Dunk knows. In that show, Adili's outstanding performance has received the attention and love of many fans. But this also brought some trouble to Adili.
"After the variety show went viral, everyone thought I came out of the variety show, so I left the impression of a 'variety player' to the fans." Adili said that he hopes that fans will pay attention to a person to understand his efforts for basketball, rather than the brilliance of the surface, and he hopes to remove this "variety" label.
The higher the popularity, the higher the demand. The reporter learned that after Adili was selected by the Fujian Xunxing men's basketball team, some fans expressed the hope that Adili would lead the team into the playoffs, hoping that Adili could single out CBA professional players. It's an invisible pressure on the players," so, I don't read the comments now. Adili said while taking out his mobile phone, let the reporter look at his vibrato number, "the message comments, private messages have been '99 +', I now just want to play well and bring help to the team." ”
The new season is coming, and Adili believes that no matter what his previous achievements are, he now only wants to start from scratch. "What I expect of myself is to be myself and follow my heart." Adili said.
The reporter learned that in addition to basketball, Adili also has a hobby - aviation. "I've loved airplanes since I was a kid, so I pay attention to every airline, and as long as the planes fly a little lower, I can basically know which airline and which type of aircraft." Talking about airplanes, Adili gushed endlessly, he told reporters that in his Taobao shopping cart, there are a variety of aviation aircraft models, and his wish is to be able to collect all these aircraft one day.
