Fujian Sturgeons advances to the CBA playoffs

On the evening of July 20, the Fujian Sturgeons, a team owned by Fujian Panpan Foods, defeated Xinjiang Yilite with a score of 106:101. They sealed their qualification for the playoffs in this key battle and became the last team to enter the CBA playoffs.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Zhelin has already made 27% of his three-pointers this season, but he played his role as the team's "strong heart" for the second time, scoring the decisive three-pointer in the game.

"Being promoted to the playoffs again, I feel the only difference from last season is that we were 7th last year, but I don't know which ranking we are now." Wang Zhelin's words show that he or the whole team's goal is to win more games and to move towards higher team rankings.

After the game, the head coach of the Fujian Sturgeons said in an interview with reporters that the process of playing from last but one in the league to being qualified for the playoffs was indeed very difficult. It felt like winning the championship for them. Their next goal is to play well. "It's not sure how much energy we still have for tomorrow's game, yet we should forget the success we had in the past and do our best to maintain our momentum and bring fun to the fans."

  福建豹发力男篮晋级CBA季后赛

　　7月20日晚，福建盼盼豹发力男篮以106∶101击败新疆伊力特队，用一场关键战役，锁定了季后赛资格，成为最后一支进入CBA季后赛的球队。

　　值得一提的是，本赛季虽然王哲林的三分球命中率为27%，但他已经第二次扮演球队“大心脏”的角色，命中制胜三分。

　　赛后，福建豹发力队主教练在接受记者专访时表示，球队从联盟倒数第二到晋级季后赛，过程确实非常困难，有种夺冠的感觉。接下去的目标就是打好比赛，“现在不确定明天的比赛大家还有多少能量，但我们应该首先忘记过去的成功，尽最大的努力去延续我们的势头，给球迷带来快乐。”
