cba has played so far this season, and five local players have averaged 20+ points per game. This phenomenon has not been seen in ten years.
These five people are Hu Jinqiu (21.4 points), Sun Minghui (20.9 points), Yuan Shuai (20.7 points), Wang Zhelin (20 points) and Arslan (20 points).
It is worth mentioning that Lin Wei, ranked sixth, averaged 19.9 points per game, which was very close to averaging 20+ points per game.
Five of the local players averaged 20+ per game. The last time this happened in the CBA was in the 2012-13 season.
In the 2012-13 season, Yi Jianlian (25.9 points), Liu Wei (21.3 points), Wang Zhizhi (20.8 points), Wang Zhelin (20.3 points) and Zhang Nan (20.3 points) all averaged 20+ points per game.
In the following ten years, there were four local players averaging 20+ per game in the 2019-20 and 2021-22 seasons. However, five local players averaged 20+ per game, and they have only appeared since the 2012-13 season until now.
Among the five players who averaged 20+ per game this season, the most surprising one is Ningbo defender Arslan.
As the son of Adijian, Arslan, who entered the CBA from the 2014-15 season, was once questioned. Before this season, his highest scoring average in a single season was only 10.9 points. But after joining the Ningbo team this season, Arslan gained unlimited firepower in his father's system, averaging 15.2 shots per game (shooting rate 41.6%), ranking third in the league, which is one of the reasons for his soaring score. one.
Of course, not every player with unlimited firing rights can perform like Arslan this season, which also requires a certain level of strength. Just like he scored 42 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists against the Nanjing team before, not everyone can do this. In the end, with the blessing of unlimited fire rights, Arslan, whose ability has improved compared to the past, also averaged 20+ per game.
