25+ Zhang Fan, who scored 3 consecutive games, went from a marginal player to a top CBA scorer

Zhang Fan's counterattack may continue.

When Zhang Fan from the Bayi youth training system joined the Beijing Control men's basketball team in 2018, the player who was depressed in the Guangzhou men's basketball team (Foshan men's basketball team) once said that this (joining Beijing Control) will be a new starting point for his career! At that time, Zhang Fan, who was at best a role player, and even regarded him as a marginal player, said so, I am afraid that it will not attract too much attention, but today, looking at Zhang Fan's "new starting point", everyone may have to admit that Zhang Fan really did it!

In the 30th Beijing Control men's basketball team 108-101 reverse Nanjing Tongxi, winning the fourth win of the season, Zhang Fan once again played the role of the team's "mainstay". In addition to his 11 points in the fourth quarter, the 8 points that the North Control men's basketball team completed in the last 3 minutes of the game were also all related to Zhang Fan.

After assisting Yu Changdong to hit a three-pointer to help the North Control men's basketball team to surpass the score 103-101, Zhang Fan immediately completed the steal against former teammate Wang Zirui and hit a three-pointer, after Nanjing Tongxi attacked again without success, Zhang Fan's layup helped the North Control men's basketball team finally freeze the score at 108-101.

The North Control men's basketball team can reverse Nanjing Tongxi, which is indeed not unrelated to Zhang Fan's performance. In this game, Zhang Fan not only scored a team-high 26 points, but also his 6 steals were a career high. What makes the North Control men's basketball team and Marbury feel even more excited is that this has almost become a routine operation for Zhang Fan this season, especially in the last three games.

In the game in which the Beijing Control men's basketball team defeated the Shanxi men's basketball team 97-102, Zhang Fan contributed the highest 25 points of the whole team; in the game in which the Beijing Control men's basketball team defeated the Shandong men's basketball team 105-95, Zhang Fan scored 30+ for the first time in his career, contributing the same game-high 33 points... Coupled with the fact that he once again contributed 26 points in this game against Nanjing Tongxi, this is also the first time in Zhang Fan's CBA career that he has been able to play 25+ in three consecutive games.

Zhang Fan's performance this season is not just the last three games, in the Beijing Control men's basketball team 116-105 victory over the Xinjiang men's basketball team, Zhang Fan contributed 24 points and 10 assists, which is also the first double-double of Zhang Fan's CBA career. After the game to help the North Control men's basketball team defeat the Shanxi men's basketball team, Zhang Fan has hit 251 three-pointers after joining the North Control men's basketball team, thus rising to the first place in team history; Zhang Fan has contributed 1616 points to the North Control men's basketball team, and also rose to the first place in team history.

It is also worth saying that as of this game against Nanjing Tongxi, Zhang Fan has averaged 24.1 points per game this season, and looking at the entire CBA game so far this season, his average score per game is only inferior to guo allen (29.0 points) and Felder (25.6 points) and other two players.

So far this season, Zhang Fan's progress may be staggering enough. Especially in the three-point shooting rate, as of this game with Nanjing Tongxi hit 6 three-pointers (6 of 12 shots), Zhang Fan's three-point shooting rate this season reached 47.2%, which is not only a new single-season high in his CBA career, but even this season's CBA game is a terrifying statistic.

Back to this game against Nanjing Tongxi. Xi Relijiang, who hit four three-pointers at the three-point line in this game, reached 1213 CBA career three-pointers, and he also surpassed Wang Shipeng (1210) to rise to the third place in the CBA's all-time three-point list.

XiRelijiang looks more eye-catching than Zhang Fan, but another statistic proves that at least this season, Xirelijiang's feel on the outside is completely inferior to Zhang Fan's. A great coincidence is that in this game, Xi Relijiang and Zhang Fan have both shot 72 three-pointers this season, but Zhang Fan hit 34 of them, and Xi Relijiang only hit 23 of them. This contrast in the number of hits (hit rate) may be a better proof of whose shot is more reasonable, or whose shot is more certain.

Comparing with his opponents is of course only one aspect, And Zhang Fan may be able to prove more than himself.

Zhang Fan, who made his CBA debut with the Foshan men's basketball team (now the Guangzhou men's basketball team) in the 2015-2016 season, played for the Guangzhou men's basketball team and only got 42 appearances in three seasons, and 25 of them appeared in his rookie season. Equally dismal with the number of appearances is his performance, in his last season with the Guangzhou men's basketball team, Zhang Fan averaged only 2 points per game.

It is indeed not too much to say that Zhang Fan is a marginal player and role player at this time, and the "new starting point" after he joined the North Control men's basketball team is therefore difficult to really attract too much attention. It is gratifying that Zhang Fan did seize this opportunity, from firmly grasping the first place in the history of the North Control men's basketball team, to becoming the scoring strongman of the North Control men's basketball team and even so far this season, Zhang Fan, who refused to bow his head, did wait for his own peak moment.

Zhang Fan's counterattack is of course his personal pride, but the CBA League is not happy to see this kind of small person's counterattack, because Zhang Fan will let more marginal players and role players see that they may also become the protagonists of this league - of course, this must be based on the premise that they are unwilling to accept defeat and are not satisfied with the status quo.
