Liaoning Gain Plenty from Summer League! Young Players Show Value, Duan Ruiqi and Li Huyi Form Backcourt Duo

CBA Summer League: Liaoning defeated Guangsha 80-72. The game was still quite difficult for Liaoning. They trailed in the first quarter, came back to take the lead in the second and third quarters, and were tied again in the final quarter. Fortunately, they scored consecutively at the crucial moment to regain and maintain their advantage. In this Summer League, multiple young players showed their value.

Li Huyi and Duan Ruiqi have already developed into Liaoning's backcourt duo. Both players can handle ball responsibilities. Of course, Duan Ruiqi's shooting efficiency was not ideal, as he made 5 of 15 shots in the game. However, he hit two consecutive three-pointers at a key moment. He can also connect the team through playmaking and is a player who can keep the offense running smoothly. Li Huyi can also handle ball responsibilities now. Even though he did not make the key shot, he scored 17 points overall, and his defensive effort was also positive. This kind of performance from the two players is what people hope to see.

At the same time, Zhang Chenzhifeng has also shown some growth. Although his statistics were not particularly high, he was able to create for teammates and distribute the ball from the high post. His defensive focus improved, and he made key defensive plays at important moments. In addition, his hook shot was also on display. He finished with 6 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, showing an all-around performance. This can help strengthen Liaoning's advantage in the interior. Of course, his physicality still needs improvement, which is something he must work on, but his defense has already improved significantly and he can make an impact when he steps onto the court.

Fu Yuanxu also performed very well. He does not dominate the ball and showed strong confidence. During this game, he once scored 5 consecutive points, including a buzzer-beating three-pointer. Unfortunately, he did not receive many opportunities, especially after finding his rhythm in this game, and he was unable to get enough chances, which was disappointing. Based on his current development trend, he remains a player with significant value for further development.
