On August 27, a news from the Nets' reporter Brian Lewis made the Chinese basketball fans' attention focus again on Choi Yongxi. Lewis posted a training video of Choi Yongxi and captioned that Choi Yongxi was preparing for the return to the NBA. The potential star suffered a serious injury from a torn ACL while playing for the Long Island Nets (a G League team under the Brooklyn Nets) last December.

Since then, Choi Yongxi has been in Brooklyn for rehabilitation and now he has left the HSS training center to head to Los Angeles for 5v5 training, a transformation that heralds important progress in his recovery process and makes him the possibility of becoming an option for other NBA teams. Inspector Zhao, a domestic basketball media person in the football circle, revealed not long ago in the live broadcast that Cui Yongxi's US agency team has been actively looking for opportunities for him to try to win an Exhibit 10 contract. However, the registration deadline is approaching and Choi Yonghee needs to make a decision as soon as possible.

Recalling Choi Yongxi's NBA journey, he signed a two-year two-way contract with the Nets last year. He was looking forward to showing off his skills in the NBA field, but ended the season early due to injury and was later cut by the Nets. In contrast, Zeng Fanbo has been playing for the Beijing Men's Basketball Team in the past three seasons. He played 37 games in the regular season last season, and averaged 14.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. He played in 5 games in the playoffs, and averaged 15 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1.6 blocks per game, with outstanding performance. Not long ago, Zeng Fanbo was favored by the Nets and successfully signed the contract.

It is worth mentioning that the Nets and the Suns will play two preseason games in Macau, China in October. If nothing unexpected happens, Zeng Fanbo will play for the Nets. This is an excellent opportunity for Zeng Fanbo to show his strength to the world, and also allows Chinese fans to witness his style in the international arena at their doorstep. Although Choi Yongxi has experienced setbacks in injuries, his attitude of actively recovering and training hard is admirable. Whether he can seize the last opportunity and once again open the door of the NBA with his outstanding performance, return to the arena to prove himself, and become the focus of fans' attention.

Whether it is Cui Yongxi's full sprint to return to the NBA or Zeng Fanbo's upcoming debut in the preseason in Macau, China, both Chinese players are working hard for their dreams. Their experience not only inspires more Chinese basketball youth, but also makes Chinese fans look forward to the performance of Chinese basketball on the international stage. I hope they can overcome difficulties, achieve excellent results on the future basketball path, and add glory to the Chinese basketball career.
