Here we go! Exposed to join CBA! The center who outperformed Yang Hansen

Oh~

The big one is coming.

A well-known domestic basketball platform reports:The defending champion Guangsha team is close to signing Malik Williams and is expected to play in CBA next week.

This guy was born on August 26, 1998, a 22nd-round draft pick, a center standing 2.11 meters tall and weighing 113 kilograms, a versatile inside player with spacing ability. This season, he played 17 games for the South Bay Lakers in the G League, averaging 14.4 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.3 blocks, with a three-point shooting percentage of 36.9%.

In the recent two games between South Bay Lakers and Rip City Remix, Williams shot 17 out of 27 (7 out of 16 from three-point range) and totaled 43 points and 16 rebounds with 4 assists;对面的杨瀚森，合计投篮17中7，总共得到21分10板5助。

Williams gained more attention from CBA teams precisely because he outperformed Yang Hansen in the G League, which led him to now secure a contract and embark on a new chapter in his career.

Guangsha team remains a favorite to win the championship this season, but they no longer possess the same dominance as last season. Currently, with a record of 29 wins and 7 losses, they rank second in the league, trailing behind Shanghai team (32-4). Besides the increased competition this year, they have also suffered a severe wave of injuries, especially in the backcourt positions, which has reached an unbearable level.

FMVP foreign player Barry Brown Jr. has been sidelined for nearly two months due to a back contusion. This season, he has averaged 19.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.6 steals per game, with shooting percentages of 38%, 36.2%, and 82.9%. Local playmaking core Sun Minghui has also been out for about two months due to a partial tear of the right anterior talofibular ligament. This season, he has averaged 10 points, 2.1 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.2 steals per game, with shooting percentages of 41.4%, 31.6%, and 88.5%.

Fortunately, according to the expected recovery timeline, both Brown and Sun Minghui are expected to return before the playoffs begin, but whether they can regain their competitive form in time remains a big question?

Regardless, Guangsha team's goal of aiming for the championship remains unchanged, as can be seen from their move to bring in Williams even towards the end of the regular season.

Indeed, the view from the summit is always so desirable and never tiresome.
