On August 29, the CBA transfer deadline, Zhao Rui joined the Beijing Men's Basketball Team and will wear the No. 24 jersey in the new season. At the same time, the Beijing Men's Basketball Team signed Spelman and the inside was strengthened. During this offseason, at least three CBA teams chased Spellman. In the end, Beijing Shougang laughed to the end, and he was really willful with money.

CBA stipulates that a team has up to 4 foreign players at the same time, with a total foreign player cap of US$4.25 million. What if it exceeds the salary cap? Simple! Just pay the adjustment fee, similar to the NBA's luxury tax. The portion that exceeds less than US$1 million will be paid at a rate of 50%. For example, over $100,000 will be paid 50,000 US dollars. The adjustment fee will be paid at a rate of 75% for the portion that exceeds US$1 million but is less than US$2 million. For more than US$2 million, the adjustment fee is 150%. Simply put, as long as the team is rich enough. You may have noticed that the CBA is now polarized, with several teams being rich, and some teams unable to afford their wages.

Spelman was born on July 21, 1997 and is 2.06 meters tall. When he first entered the NBA, he weighed only 111 kilograms, and soared to 139 kilograms in the past two years. Spelman played in the Korean League last season, averaging 17.8 points, 9 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. He has been losing weight this year. Judging from recent photos, he should still weigh more than 125 kg. In the 2017-18 season, Spellman helped Villanova win the NCAA championship, when his teammates included Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Divincenzo and Pascal. In the 2018 NBA Draft, Spelman was selected by the Hawks with the 30th pick. The Bridge is the No. 10 show, Devin is the No. 17 show, and Brunson is the No. 33 show.

In the summer of 2019, the Warriors sent Damian Jones and a second round, and exchanged Spelman from the Hawks. In the 2019-20 season, he played 49 games with the Warriors, starting in 3 of them. He averaged 18.1 minutes per game, scored 7.6 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.7 steals, and 0.5 blocks, with three shooting percentages: 43.1%, 39.1%, and 79.3%.

In January 2021, Spellman was cut by the Knicks and immediately went to the overseas league. In the summer of 2023, he was naturalized by the Lebanese men's basketball team. The Beijing Men's Basketball Team reached the CBA Finals last season. After the offseason strengthening, what do you think of their strength next season?
