After wrapping up the second game against Beijing, the Guangdong men’s basketball team has officially arrived in Beijing to prepare for the decisive Game 3. The match is scheduled for 7:35 PM on May 12. As the game draws closer, new updates about Hu Mingxuan and the rest of the squad have emerged, giving fans a closer look at the team’s arrival.
According to videos captured by fans, some supporters approached Hu Mingxuan for autographs and photos at the Beijing airport. Hu graciously obliged, standing upright and looking quite composed while posing with a female fan. Although he didn’t flash many smiles, his cooperation throughout the interaction left fans delighted. Hu Mingxuan remains one of the most popular figures on the Guangdong roster, thanks not only to his impressive skills on the court but also to his handsome appearance and easygoing nature.
Meanwhile, Xu Jie also drew significant attention. Upon arriving at the hotel, a crowd of fans surrounded him, phones held high to capture every moment. However, likely due to fatigue from travel and the need to check in quickly, Xu politely turned down some requests for autographs and photos. This is understandable given the demanding schedule—fans who show their support at the arena may well find Xu more than willing to interact later.
In addition to Hu and Xu, Jiao Boqiao and Cui Yongxi also attracted fans during their arrival. The pair seemed in high spirits, engaging in a lively chat at the airport. Having previously played together for the Guangzhou team, they have developed strong chemistry as teammates. Despite limited playing time recently, Jiao Boqiao has demonstrated a growing sense of belonging with Guangdong, especially after celebrating passionately with Zhang Haojia following their buzzer-beater victory over Beijing in the previous game. Fans hope Jiao can step up and take on more responsibility in Game 3 to help the team secure the win.
Overall, the team appears tired from the journey but remains in good spirits. Both Beijing and Guangdong have had similar rest periods, but Guangdong’s younger roster gives them an edge in recovery. Maintaining confidence and giving full effort against Beijing will be crucial. Playing on the road in a hostile environment won’t be easy, but Guangdong still has a chance to fight back. Fans believe in the possibility of a miracle and hope the team can deliver good news.
