Who said that you have to lie down when you return to China? Choi Yongxi can follow Zeng Fanbo and can still return to the NBA in 2 years

In recent years, many Chinese players have not given up on their pursuit of the NBA draft even if they fail. Zeng Fanbo is an extremely typical case. This former four-star high school student in the United States lost the 22nd draft and then obtained an ex10 contract issued by the Pacers. If it weren't for the epidemic, Zeng Fanbo would have stayed in the United States and waited for an opportunity, but he eventually chose to return home and joined the Beijing Men's Basketball Team.

I thought that after Zeng Fanbo returned to China, the NBA gate would be permanently closed to him, but after three seasons in the CBA, Zeng Fanbo took the initiative to step out of his comfort zone this summer and launched another attack on the NBA. According to the US Journal ary recently, Zeng Fanbo is the last strong candidate for the Nets' two-way contract quota. As the training camp approaches, the trend of his two-way contract is becoming increasingly obvious.

Zeng Fanbo, 22, is actually younger than many older rookies who run this year. In the past three seasons, he has indeed received sufficient training in the Beijing Men's Basketball Team. Whether it is shooting stability or ball-holding ability, he has made significant progress compared to when lighting the team.

Last season, Zeng Fanbo averaged 14.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game in the regular season, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 40.5%. His data in the playoffs increased instead of falling. If he had not been seriously injured by Liu Chuanxing in the game against Shanxi, Zeng Fanbo's data might not only average 15 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1 steal and 1.6 blocks per game, and it is likely that he could even help Beijing win the championship.

In fact, for Zeng Fanbo, he can choose to lie flat in China. According to his strength, he can get a Class D maximum salary contract in a few years. But it is obvious that Zeng Fanbo still has higher pursuits, so he resolutely stepped out of his comfort zone this summer.

If Zeng Fanbo can really realize his dream this time and stand on the official NBA stage, then it will undoubtedly be a great inspiration for Cui Yongxi. This pioneer who is also brave enough to step out of the comfort zone is also a NBA draft pick. After being signed by the Nets on a two-way contract last season, he also stood on the official NBA stage. Unfortunately, due to serious injuries in the ACL in the Development League, Cui Yongxi was also cut by the Nets and returned to the CBA this summer to join the Guangdong Men's Basketball Team.

, also 22-year-old Choi Yongxi, if he can make a name for himself in the CBA in the next 1-2 years, it is not ruled out that he will be recruited again in the NBA. Because according to Xiao Cui, an NBA team this summer asked him to play 5v5 when he was recovering for eight months to decide whether to give him a two-way contract, but Xiao Cui finally chose to refuse and waited to recover from his knee injury, which is enough to prove that some teams still showed interest in Choi Yongxi. So, if he can also play in the CBA, there is not a chance to return to the NBA in the future.
