Jiangsu vs Nanjing Preview: Jiangsu on a Winning Streak with Hot Form, Guo Haowen’s Participation Draws Attention, Tongxi Hopes to End Losing Streak

At 8:30 PM on August 26, the CBA Summer League Yumin matches continue, with Jiangsu facing off against Nanjing Tongxi.

Nanjing Tongxi has played three games in the Yumin matches, currently holding a record of one win and two losses. They defeated Tianjin 110-99 in their first match, then lost to Xinjiang 88-101, followed by a 78-100 defeat against Zhejiang. In their last game, Nanjing Tongxi handed Zhejiang Chouzhou, who had been suffering consecutive losses, their first win of the summer league. It’s worth noting that Zhejiang had performed poorly this summer, but unexpectedly, Nanjing Tongxi performed even worse in this game. The highly anticipated new signing Guo Haowen did not play in this game, and only three players from Nanjing Tongxi scored in double digits. Zhang Xinyu led the team with 18 points and 4 rebounds, Abudusalamiti contributed 16 points and 2 rebounds, Zhao Baiqing added 11 points and 3 rebounds. Apart from a low shooting percentage, Nanjing Tongxi also struggled with fouls and turnovers.

Of course, Guo Haowen, who was in hot form, did not participate in this game. He had previously scored 35 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists in the first two games, and also recorded 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists against Xinjiang, showing excellent form. Nanjing Tongxi made some adjustments during the off-season, with Wang Lanqin leaving the team to join Liaoning, Wang Zirui joining Ningbo, and Lin Wei and Zeng Fanri among others not participating in the summer league with the team.

Jiangsu has been performing exceptionally well in the Yumin matches. After previously suffering four consecutive losses, they have now won three straight games, narrowly defeating Xinjiang 77-73, overwhelming Zhejiang 101-75, and edging out Shenzhen 110-108. Notably, the victory over Shenzhen marked Zhou Peng’s first loss as a coach, ending Shenzhen’s five-game winning streak.

In the match against Xinjiang, Wu Yujia of Jiangsu scored the highest for his team with 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists, Ma Guodong added 10 points and 2 rebounds, and Jiang Haoran contributed 10 points and 3 rebounds. The collective effort of the entire Jiangsu team was key to their victory. In the second match against Zhejiang, all 11 players who took the court for Jiangsu scored, with Yan Shi coming off the bench to score the highest for the team with 18 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists, Liu Zexi added 16 points and 9 rebounds. The key to Jiangsu’s victory remained their balanced scoring. In the last game against Shenzhen, Cui Xiaolong was in scorching form, scoring a game-high 34 points, 4 rebounds, and 9 assists, Zheng Qilong added 22 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists, helping the team secure a hard-fought victory.

The performance gap between the two teams is significant. Whether Guo Haowen will participate in this game is a focal point for fans. Meanwhile, it is without a doubt that Jiangsu will be aiming for their fourth consecutive win in the Yumin matches. Let’s see how the game unfolds.
