The Chinese Basketball Association announced this morning that Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club Co., Ltd. will resume its registration as a new athlete starting from today. This is seen as a new breakthrough in the Zhou Qi incident, which means that this mutually damaging farce is expected to have a grand finale.
In February of this year, the Chinese Basketball Association imposed severe penalties on the Xinjiang men's basketball team, stating in the penalty ticket: "From the date of the penalty decision, Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club will be restricted from registering new players for one year. During the aforementioned period, except for domestic athletes who have completed valid registration for the 2022-2023 season, they are not allowed to register new domestic athletes and are prohibited from participating in or engaging in domestic athlete transfer exchanges." At the same time, the relevant person in charge of the Chinese Basketball Association determined that Zhou Qi has regained his freedom and can join other teams.
But the Xinjiang men's basketball team does not agree with this punishment, and they have decided to withdraw from the 2022-23 season and the CBA league. Afterwards, the incident underwent significant changes, and through multiple mediation and mediation, the Xinjiang men's basketball team returned to the league in the late third stage of the regular season. Among them, the 7 regular season games they missed were all judged 0-20 losses and their points were all 0 points. The Xinjiang men's basketball team finished 17th in the regular season. At the recently concluded shareholder meeting, a resolution was passed that Xinjiang men's basketball team will automatically receive the 8th and 18th pick in this year's draft, but they can only be used for trading and cannot choose players.

The official announcement from the Chinese Basketball Association means that the Xinjiang men's basketball team has lifted its "seal" ahead of schedule and resumed the qualification to register new players.
The Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) wrote in an official statement regarding the Xinjiang men's basketball team, "The CBA has accepted your company's application, and after acceptance, it is determined that your company has completed the rectification of the violations listed in the Discipline and Ethics Committee's" Notice on Punishing Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club Co., Ltd. "Your company has a positive attitude towards rectification, measures in place, and clear commitments. The CBA has decided to restore the registration of Xinjiang Guanghui Basketball Club Co., Ltd. as a new athlete from the date of this notice."
The current conflict between Zhou Qi and Xinjiang Men's Basketball Club has become a dead end. The two sides have been exposing each other's shortcomings in the past few seasons, tearing apart their faces in public, so it is impossible for them to reunite; However, Zhou Qi's ability remains the strongest player representative in the 5th position in China. His whereabouts and ability to play can even change the pattern of the CBA league championship and affect the men's basketball team's preparation plan for the Paris Olympics; In addition, not allowing Xinjiang men's basketball team to register players in the new season is not conducive to the development of this team in youth training, and it is also a huge loss to the Chinese basketball industry.

Based on the above, the current "judgment" of the Basketball Association is equivalent to a concession made after careful consideration. As a result, the Xinjiang men's basketball team has truly entered the right track and is expected to conduct player transactions during the offseason. This is the fundamental prerequisite for the resolution of the "Zhou Qi incident".
It seems that during the offseason, the Xinjiang men's basketball team will actively operate Zhou Qi's trading matters. If any club can give enough chips to impress the Xinjiang men's basketball team, it will be natural. At present, Shanghai men's basketball, Beijing men's basketball, and other clubs are considered the most likely to become Zhou Qi's new owners. The Xinjiang men's basketball team can also use the trade of Zhou Qi to strengthen the team's weaknesses, such as strengthening the defensive line, and also receive a large transfer fee. So, that's the best ending to this farce.
