Gave It Their All! Shaoyuke’s Hollow Performance of Points, Rebounds, and Assists & Fuge’s Contribution as Liaoning Loses in Overtime

On the evening of October 4th, in a CBA preseason game, Liaoning lost to Jilin 109-111 in overtime, failing to secure consecutive wins.

The match began with an intense offensive battle. Liaoning started strong, quickly establishing an advantage, but Jilin responded swiftly, both teams scoring over 30 points in the first quarter for a combined total of 72 points. In the second quarter, Liaoning’s shooting percentage dropped while Jilin kept pace, ending the half tied at 61-61. In the second half, both sides’ offensive efficiency declined sharply, neither managing to break the 20-point mark in a single quarter, with Jilin only scoring 11 points in that period. In the decisive moments, Liaoning struggled to break the deadlock, while Jilin scored eight straight points to level the score. The game remained neck-and-neck until the final second, with Shaoyuke securing two crucial points from the free-throw line, Newman tying it up with a three-pointer, and the game going into overtime.

In overtime, the two teams continued their fierce struggle, with Jilin’s three successful three-pointers proving key to their victory. Wang Lanqin’s last-second three-point attempt narrowly missed, allowing Jilin to edge out Liaoning by a slim margin in overtime.

Throughout the game, foreign player Shaoyuke had an outstanding performance, playing nearly 35 minutes, making 12 of 21 shots (including 4 of 10 three-pointers) and all five free throws, leading the team with 33 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists, along with 1 block, 2 turnovers, and 2 fouls, finishing with a +6 plus-minus rating. Additionally, Fuge also made significant contributions, coming off the bench to make 7 of 12 shots (5 of 8 three-pointers) and both free throws, scoring 21 points, grabbing 2 rebounds, and dishing out 7 assists. Han Dejun was also highly efficient in this game, contributing 14 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 steals; if not for Jilin’s accurate three-point shooting, Liaoning might not have suffered defeat.
