The two-week deadline has arrived! Lin Wei s G League is just wishful thinking from the outside world, and if he doesn t have a ball, he may return to the CBA

Previously, Lin Wei was selected by the Texas Legends with the eighth pick in the first round in the G League international draft. However, while his agency issued a relevant statement, he did not really decide to let Lin Wei play the poorly low G League, but deliberately kept it a secret. "The team will discuss the details of cooperation with the team and make a decision as soon as possible."
It is reported that the selected players will automatically obtain the G League contract, and the players can choose to give up within two weeks, and Lin Wei was selected on July 9, which is exactly two weeks now, but there is still no relevant news. Even though the outside world has "decided" that Lin Wei will play in the G League next season after being selected, for the agency, if there is no good fortune to make, Lin Wei will definitely not be allowed to play in the G League.
According to statistics, the annual salary of ordinary players in the G League is about 40,000 US dollars, which is about 280,000 yuan, which is even less than the salary of the CBA No. 1 (the CBA No. 1 salary is 500,000). Therefore, this is also one of the main reasons why Lin Wei's Chinese agency did not immediately agree to play in the G League after he was selected by the Texas Legends.
For Lin Wei, choosing to switch from Aoshida (Yang Hansen's Chinese Brokerage Company) to Elite Legend Sports also laid the groundwork for his tortuous dream pursuit journey this summer. If Lin Wei really has no ball to play next season and has to return to the CBA to play, then he will suffer the final loss. It is undeniable that Elite Legend Sports does have a lot of domestic resources, including Han Xu and Hu Jinqiu, the top stars of the women's and men's basketball teams, are all under their jurisdiction. However, Elite Legend Sports has never used the precedent for players to play in overseas leagues. They thought they could have successfully experimented with Lin Wei, but they never thought that Lin Wei became the "villain" who failed their experiments.
In fact, when Lin Wei was pursuing his dream in the United States, several NBL teams had already extended olive branches for him, including Melbourne United. As a result, Lin Wei performed poorly in the Adidas European Training Camp not long ago. After discussion by the coaching staff, he also directly rejected it. Lin Wei's plan to arrive in Melbourne for team testing was also cancelled.
If it is not a last resort, Lin Wei's current Chinese agency will definitely not let him return to the CBA. After all, because of the draft, the relationship between the two sides is also very stalemate. The reason why he is still holding back may be that the agency is collecting quotations from teams from all parties and preparing to "the higher ones win." But rational analysis shows that Lin Wei has never even played in the national team. In a mid- and downstream team in a league, who became the local scoring champion of CBA last season, it may be difficult to get some considerable salary in high-quality leagues without any reference samples.
