Shenzhen Men’s Basketball Team can be said to be an arsenal for cultivating CBA young players. Over the years, it has produced a large number of potential stocks such as Dehao, Gu Quan, Shen Zijie, He Xining, etc. This season, Shenzhen Men’s Basketball Team has once again ushered in a good harvest. He is the 25-year-old defender Yang Linyi. Although
is only 25 years old, Yang Linyi can be said to be one of the few "veteran" players in this Shenzhen men's basketball team. He was only 17 years old in the 2013-2014 season and he has already joined the team. At that time, the Shenzhen Men's Basketball Team was still in Dongguan. At present, only the team's Gu Quan and veteran He Zhongmian have experienced the same glorious years as him. Of course
came to the CBA stage at such a young age. Yang Linyi, who didn't have many outstanding conditions, naturally started from the end of the bench. In the first 5 seasons, he played 34 games for the team in total, averaging less than 3 points per game, basically just a cheerleader waving a towel on the bench.
But in the 2018-2019 season, due to Yu Dehao’s season reimbursement and Luo Hanchen’s departure, Yang Linyi finally ushered in a chance. That season he played 41 games for the team, including 3 starts, although he only played time. 9.6 minutes, but he did his best to show himself in the limited time, averaging 4 points and 1.5 rebounds per game. Perhaps it was Yang Linyi's daring to fight and fight that made Wang Jianjun, the coach at the time, pay attention to this "little player" who had been playing for the team for 6 years.
The Shenzhen Men’s Basketball Team, which suffered a big loss in the selection of small foreign aids last season, had to let domestic players take the lead. Yang Linyi was also given ample opportunity to show up. He played 20 minutes and averaged 9.9 shots per game with 7.3 shots per game. He scored 2.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists and made 40.9% of his three-pointers. All data set a new high since he entered the CBA. During the quarter-finals, without foreign aid in Shenzhen, Yang Linyi surrendered more than 20 points in many games and became the absolute thigh of the Shenzhen men's basketball backcourt.
After the team star Qiu Biao was appointed as the coach of the Shenzhen men's basketball team this season, Yang Linyi also ushered in the Bole of his career, thanks to Qiu Biaohui's insight. Up to now, he has played for the team in 9 of the 21 games he has played. The playing time has increased to 24.2 minutes compared with last year. He averaged 8.4 shots per game (ranked fifth in the team), which is a career high. 11.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists.
's already good three-point shooting percentage is still maintained at a good 39.4%, in the first show with the Sichuan Men's Basketball this season, Yang Linyi continued to maintain the hot performance of last season's rematch, 12 shots 8 (three-pointers) 7 of 3), with a perfect report card of 24 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal for himself.
In fact, at the beginning of the season, Yang Linyi always played as the team’s starting number one position, but then because of the arrival of the small foreign aid Booker, he had to give up the starting and return to the familiar bench again, but even so Yang Linyi can still maintain Efficient output. Among them, in the most recent game with the Shandong Men’s Basketball Team, he played the role of a bench killer. He played in 35 minutes, shot 10 of 18 (8 of 14 three-pointers), scored 33 points frantically and led the team in the final quarter. Successfully reversed and won this strong opponent.
However, the current disadvantage for Yang Linyi is that the Shenzhen Men’s Basketball team welcomes back the former feat of foreign aid Kenny Burton. The return of this super scorer will undoubtedly have a great impact on Yang Linyi’s next playing time. Only 19 minutes played in the last game with the Shanxi Men's Basketball Team is the biggest proof. However, there is pressure to be motivated. I hope that he can convert such competitive pressure into his own motivation to move forward, and continue to use practical actions to prove that he can still be the team's back thigh!
