On June 26, it was reported that on June 26, according to the latest report of domestic media, Liu Wei, a former Chinese national basketball player and assistant coach of the national team, officially joined the Xinjiang men's basketball team, replacing Qiu Biao who had voluntarily resigned as the head coach of the Xinjiang team.
In 2022, Qiu Biao took the post of Xinjiang coach. In the season just ended, Qiu Biao led Xinjiang men's basketball team to win the second place in the CBA regular season with a record of 41 wins and 11 losses. In the series between the finals and Liaoning men's basketball team, Xinjiang team, which was short of major generals, was unable to recover and lost 0-4.
This season, Xinjiang Team's average points lost, defensive rebounding rate, and ability to make opponents' mistakes ranked top in the league, and Qiu Biao also won the best coach of the regular season this season.
However, according to media reports, the management of the Xinjiang Club is not satisfied with the results of the runner up and the 4-0 sweep by Liaoning. Although Qiu Biao still has one year left in his contract, he is willing to change the coach. Qiu Biao offered to resign and go to Shandong to coach the men's basketball team.
On June 26, according to the latest report of domestic media, the 44 year old former main point guard of the Chinese men's basketball team, Liu Wei, will officially take over as the head coach of the Xinjiang men's basketball team this week.
Liu Wei once played for Shanghai Sharks, Xinjiang Guanghui, Sichuan Jinqiang and other clubs in his career, and helped Shanghai Team win the championship in the 2001-2002 season, and became the main point guard of the national team.
After retirement, Liu Wei did not serve as the official coach and team leader, but served as the temporary coach of the Shanghai Men's Basketball Team for a short time. In January 2023, he was selected into the Chinese men's basketball coaching team, and served as the Chinese coach to assist Joergevich together with Guo Shiqiang.
Liu Wei had just been reported by the media that he would coach the Ningbo team, but soon there was a big reversal, and Liu Wei turned to coach the Xinjiang team.
As for Liu Wei's appointment, netizens said, "Another good tempered man is coming, and some people will pretend to work hard."
"Then respect and bless Director Qiu. Welcome Liu Wei's guidance and write a new history with the Xinjiang team!"

"The coach is warming up"
"More than the NBA Bridge deal"
"Surprise, I believe we can build a champion"

"I am not optimistic about this operation. If Liu Wei joins Ningbo or Sichuan, we can expect it. Last season, Xinjiang was close to the last leg. If Liu Wei didn't win the championship, it would be a failure. This is a huge pressure for a rookie coach."
"I don't care about who is the head coach. I care about who is the" consultant "."
"Will Yao Ming pass the ball to him?"
"Is it a little big? We should take some more exercise. After all, Xinjiang needs achievements. Don't look down on Liu Wei."
