Teams Preview

Zhejiang Lions

Zhejiang Guangsha enter this matchup following a controlled 87-72 win over Ningbo Rockets, where they demonstrated strong defensive structure and clear rebounding dominance. In that game, Rayjon Tucker led the scoring with 29 points and 8 rebounds, while Hu Jinqiu added 16 points and JaKarr Sampson contributed 14 points and 8 rebounds, highlighting balanced offensive production. Offensively, Guangsha average 89.8 points per game, shooting 47.8% from the field and 34.6% from three-point range.

Defensively, they remain one of the most efficient units in the league, allowing just 78.2 points per game. Their rebounding control was evident in the 37-25 advantage against Ningbo, alongside superior shooting efficiency in that game (53% FG vs 50%). Guangsha also maintain a strong assist structure at 20.4 per game, reflecting organized ball movement and half-court execution. This combination of efficiency and defensive discipline gives them a clear structural edge.

Across their last 10 matches, Zhejiang Guangsha hold a 6-4 record, showing relatively stable form with consistent scoring production but occasional dips against stronger defensive opponents. Despite those minor inconsistencies, their overall balance on both ends and home-court control position them as a tactically reliable side in this matchup.

Beijing Royal Fighters

Beijing Royal Fighters come into this contest after a close 102-107 defeat to Shanxi Loongs, where offensive production was strong but defensive lapses proved costly. In that game, Jaelen House led the scoring with 28 points, while Zhu Songwei added 21 points and Reggie Perry contributed 20 points, highlighting their multi-option scoring structure. Over their last 10 games, Beijing hold a 5-5 record, reflecting inconsistency largely driven by defensive inefficiency. They allow 93.4 points per game.

Offensively, Beijing average 88.2 points per game, shooting 47.7% from the field, which is nearly identical to Guangsha’s field-goal efficiency. Their scoring depth remains a key strength, with multiple players capable of producing 20+ points. However, their assist numbers (18.1 per game) indicate weaker ball movement, clearly visible in the 15-25 assist deficit in their last outing.

Defensively, Beijing continue to struggle with rebounding and interior containment, as shown by a 31-38 rebounding deficit against Shanxi. This lack of control leads to second-chance opportunities for opponents and disrupts their defensive structure. From a betting perspective, Beijing remain a scoring-reliant team whose chances depend heavily on offensive efficiency rather than defensive stability.
