Possible to join the CBA League? Dinwiddie was revealed to have been laid off by the Hornets

The new NBA preseason is in full swing, and there has been a lot of news recently that veteran Dinwiddie will be waived by the Hornets. According to insiders, the Hornets chose to waive veteran guard Dinwiddie, who was signed in July this year, in order to release a guaranteed salary before the start of the regular season. What is concerning is that former NBA All-Star guard Westbrook also recently signed a minimum salary contract with the Kings. However, a defender like Dinwiddie, who is strong in offense and weak in defense, may not be favored by other NBA teams before the start of the regular season. There is a high possibility of joining an overseas league in the future. Therefore, many fans also predict that the CBA League may be Dinwiddie's potential next home.

From the perspective of personal characteristics, Dinwiddie is very suitable for the fourth foreign aid candidate of the Guangdong Men's Basketball Team, a traditional powerhouse in the CBA League. The 32-year-old Dinwiddie still has 2-3 years of his peak period. His height of 1.96 meters can be used at both the second and third positions, which is very suitable for the Guangdong team's small and fast tactical system. According to statistics, as an experienced NBA veteran, Dinwiddie was able to average 11 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal in 28 minutes per game last season, and his three-point shooting percentage was 33.9%. Although Dinwiddie's offensive ability is still very high-quality, his defensive ability is no longer qualified for the regular rotation of NBA teams. Even a player as strong as Westbrook will only receive the Kings' basic salary in the end, and Dinwiddie will most likely miss the new NBA season.

There is no doubt that joining the CBA league, which emphasizes more offensive play, may be Dinwiddie's best choice. Recently, there has been no substantive news about the Guangdong team's relationship with the Sichuan team's super foreign aid Sumner, which makes many fans believe that the latter's worth and signing and transaction fees have forced Zhu Fangyu to withdraw. In other words, the Guangdong team may look for new candidates in the fourth foreign aid link. By then, Dinwiddie, who is not claimed by an NBA team, may be a target that Zhu Fangyu can consider. After all, Dinwiddie's position in the NBA league is that of a violent defender with extremely strong scoring ability. He was able to swing at the third position after joining the CBA league. This will give the Guangdong team greater guarantee whether Cui Yongxi can return to his peak in the future.

Of course, Dinwiddie, as an active top defender who is also capable of competing in the NBA league, may have a high personal value contract. However, the Guangdong team's huge investment this summer is indeed worth betting on Dinwiddie. After all, Zhu Fangyu not only acquired the two national players Cui Yongxi and Jiao Boqiao through overdraft future transactions, but the three foreign aids introduced by the Guangdong Men's Basketball Team, Sullinger, Quinn and McCall, may be worth close to US$3 million in total. If the Guangdong team takes Sumner by force, the budget for foreign aid may exceed expectations. At this time, Dinwiddie, who can be easily signed without paying the fee for trading signing rights, will be a better candidate for the Guangdong team's general manager as the fourth foreign aid.

It has to be said that at this stage, the Guangdong team really needs a super scorer like Dinwiddie to fill the vacancy of the fourth foreign aid in order to make up for the loopholes in the inability to introduce Sumner, who has excellent hard solution ability.
