  China News Service, February 20th. On the evening of the 19th, the CBA officially announced the list of free agents as of 18:00 on February 19.

Among the top Bayi players that most attracted the attention of fans, a total of 7 people entered the list.

  When the CBA official first announced the list of free agents on the 18th, the three top Bayi players, Guo Haowen, Fu Hao and Shi Yanbo, appeared on the list.

In the list announced this time, four top Bayi players, Zhang Xu, Arslan, Miao Guangyang, and Ning Hongyu, have been added.

  The Bayi Men's Basketball Team is a legendary team in the history of the Chinese Professional Basketball League. From the 1995-96 season to the 2000-01 season, they monopolized the six league championships.

  During the period, the team was full of talents, and many top domestic basketball players such as Ah Dejiang, Liu Yudong, Li Nan, Fan Bin, Zhang Jinsong and Wang Zhizhi emerged.

  However, due to many reasons, the Bayi men's basketball team has had a poor record in recent years.

The last glory of the team was 12 years ago.

In 2007, Bayi Men’s Basketball team defeated the Guangdong team, which had previously won three consecutive championships, and won the team’s 8th CBA championship.

  After that, the Bayi men's basketball record went from bad to worse and never advanced to the finals.

Last season, the Bayi men's basketball team coached by Wang Zhizhi had a final record of 6 wins and 40 losses, ranking first among all participating teams.

  In October last year, the Chinese Basketball Association issued an announcement stating: "The Bayi men's and women's basketball teams will no longer participate in the CBA League and WCBA League." Since then, the whereabouts of the original Bayi men's basketball players have been a topic of concern to fans.

  At the league conference in early February of this year, the CBA officially stated that as long as the original Bayi players who are recognized as free agents by the Chinese Basketball Association, they can register during the registration window and will be able to represent the new team after successful registration.

The player registration window period is before the start of the third stage of the league.
