Liaoning's Young Players Show Talent in Summer League: Li Huyi and Zhang Chen Zhifeng Make Clear Progress, Two New Additions Impress

In the CBA Summer League, Liaoning defeated Fujian 72-66. Liaoning played with considerable aggression in this game, controlling the match against Fujian for most of the contest and eventually securing the victory. With this Summer League now concluded, Liaoning also gained valuable evaluations of its young players.

Among them, Li Huyi and Zhang Chen Zhifeng showed very clear improvement. Li Huyi in particular had a strong impact on the game when given enough opportunities with the ball. He was able to handle offensive responsibilities, maintain tough defense, and compete for rebounds, allowing him to produce an all-around performance. However, he still made relatively many mistakes while organizing plays, while other aspects did not present major issues.

Zhang Chen Zhifeng has maintained his mobility since the first game, which has made him much more efficient offensively. As long as he does not simply stay in the paint to play, he can take control of the situation. He went 6-for-6 from the field for 13 points in the game, while also showing solid rim protection. Compared with the past year, his improvement has been substantial.

Duan Ruiqi also received a valuable test. Although he made relatively many turnovers and his shooting percentage was not very good, among this group of players he is the only backcourt player who can handle the ball and stabilize the tempo. This is also something Liaoning currently needs. If they rely only on Zhao Jiwei, their pressure will be very high. As long as he develops chemistry with teammates and improves his shooting efficiency, his ceiling is still promising.

Dai Yanlong can maintain toughness around the basket, and his physical style is even stronger than Zhang Chen Zhifeng's. Despite being only 18 years old, he has performed well on both offense and defense, enjoys physical battles, and has shown decent efficiency. This is a characteristic he needs to continue maintaining.

Fu Yuanxu's current issue remains his poor shooting percentage, but he can contribute with rebounds and defense in every game. Both of these players are newly promoted additions, and this level of performance is already enough.
