Recently, the NBA officially announced the large list of elite training camps in the G League that go directly to Chicago for joint training. Only five people are on the list. However, Cui Yongxi, a Chinese player, failed to obtain the pass through qualification. According to the rules of the NBA, he was not eligible to participate in the NBA draft conference.
The new regulation of the league is that players who want to participate in the draft need to participate in a joint trial before this. The joint trial is the threshold for entering the draft conference. Now it can be said that Cui Yongxi is already a talent draft. But for him, the door to enter the NBA has not been completely closed. He can still get a two-way contract or a training camp contract by participating in the trial training of each team or playing in the summer league on behalf of the team.
This year's joint trial will be held in Chicago from May 12 to May 19.
Cui Yongxi was born in Nanning, Guangxi in 2003, but his ancestral home is Maoming, Guangdong. Cui Yongxi is 200 cm tall, 93 kg in weight, 208 cm in arm span, and a small forward. His dynamic data are as follows: standing height: 264 cm, standing height: 337 cm; Bounce in situ: 73cm, approach height: 365cm; Run up bounce: 100+cm, 3/4 field sprint speed: 3.00 seconds.
Maybe these data are hard to understand in terms of intuitive experience. But for a template player, the Pelican's starting shooting guard, Herbert Jones's data is similar to Cui Yongxi's.
The Xinhua Sports News Agency once commented that Cui Yongxi is one of the best outside defenders in the CBA league. The rate of steals and blocked shots is the top level in the same position. Among them, the rate of blocked shots ranks sixth among local small forwards, which is more intuitive than his average of 0.7 blocked shots per game.
On the offensive side, his assists rate is among the top players in the same position, and his offensive rebounding rate is also very excellent. Cui Yongxi has only 2.7 assists per game, but his assists rate ranks fourth among local small forwards, which is very good in terms of his less ball power. The advantages of good passing also helped him to play guard in the national team later.
Rocket Surprise
In the draw of the draft conference, the Houston Rockets got the exploratory lot. It is reported that this signature came from the transaction of Harden. After the draw, the Rockets official sent a social media message saying: "We have exploratory draw for this year's draft, what do you think?"?
We will go back to 2021, when the Rockets and the Nets got a number of first round signings. The Nets have a record of 32-50 this season, belonging to the team with fish belly in the east. In the first round of the draw, 4.5% of the winners, 4.83% of the model, and 5.23% of the fans were top scorers. For the Rockets, it took a 15% probability to get this valuable exploratory stick. It has also greatly accelerated the pace of reconstruction of the Rockets. They can choose potential rookies or trade them for instant combat power.
In the latest edition of the NBA simulated draft list, the player ranked in the exploratory draw is the No. 1 scorer of the University of Tennessee, Kneckett. With a height of 198cm and a weight of 89kg, he serves as a shooting guard. He won the best player in the SEC league. Last season, he played 36 games, averaging 21.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists, of which the three-point shooting rate was 39.7%. The draft template given by the scouts was Mike Miller.
The Rockets' final record of this season is 41-41, just one step away from the playoffs. But they have improved a lot compared with last season. If the Rockets choose to trade, they are expected to get an All Star level player, who can impact the playoffs next season!
