Liaoning's first warm-up match of the summer, the team finally lost to the old rival Jilin team 67-70, a three-point difference. Despite the team's black opening, the Liaoning team still gained a lot in this battle. In this campaign, Li Xiaoxu returned again after 358 days, and he played 14 minutes in the whole game, shooting 4 of 7, cutting down a comprehensive data of 10 points, 2 boards and 2 steals, and his physical condition recovered very well.
Born in 1990, Li Xiaoxu, the oldest veteran of the Liaoning team, is only 31 years old this year, but since landing in the CBA in 2005-06, the new season will become the 16th season of his career. In the Liaoning team, although Li Xiaoxu is not the oldest one, he is the oldest one. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the soul of the Liaoning team.
In the first quarter of the game, although Li Xiaoxu did not appear in the starting position, after coming on as a substitute, he quickly seized the opportunity, easily made a layup, and then accurately hit three points on the outside line, personally scoring 5 consecutive points, helping Liaoning to start with a 19-11 lead. Judging from Li Xiaoxu's performance in the first half, after more than half a year of rest, he has recovered very well.
After entering the last quarter, Li Xiaoxu was once again sent out by Yang Ming, and this time, he once again seized the opportunity to perform. After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Li Xiaoxu successfully snatched the hand, and then counterattacked in the next round, attacking and defending, showing the style of a general. Immediately after, Li Xiaoxu hit again and added 2 more points. Unfortunately, the subsequent penalty failed to hit, missing the opportunity to play 2+1.
Li Xiaoxu has been resting for nearly a year since he was accidentally injured in the rematch against Shanxi on July 24 last year. After more than half a year of rest, Li Xiaoxu finally returned. In Liu Zhixuan's season reimbursement, He Tianju left the team, Zhang Zhenlin was temporarily absent from the team, and Li Xiaoxu's return was undoubtedly a great good news. After the Liaoning team waited for 358 days, the soul of the former team finally returned.
