Chinese Basketball Association Round: Guangzhou Loong Lions 85-98 Beijing Shougang Ducks
The Beijing Shougang Ducks claimed an important 98-85 road victory against the Guangzhou Loong Lions in CBA action on March 14, 2026. The win solidifies Beijing's push for a favorable playoff seeding, as they used a dominant second-half performance to overcome a sluggish start and silence the home crowd at Guangzhou's arena.
Beijing struggled to find their offensive rhythm early, allowing Guangzhou to build a modest lead fueled by aggressive perimeter defense. The Loong Lions' guards found success in the first half, penetrating and kicking out for open looks. The momentum shifted decisively after halftime, as Beijing's defense tightened and began forcing turnovers. A 15-2 run bridging the third and fourth quarters, orchestrated by Beijing's star import guard, turned the game on its head. Guangzhou's offense became stagnant, and they were unable to counter Beijing's balanced scoring attack down the stretch.
The focus of the match was the tale of two halves and the pivotal role of Beijing's foreign player, who took over the game after the break with a combination of scoring and playmaking. Guangzhou's reliance on jump shots proved their undoing when their shooting cooled off. A controversial no-call on an apparent charge against Beijing's big man in the key third-quarter run also drew the ire of the home fans and coaching staff.
This result sees Beijing climb in the tightly contested middle of the CBA table, picking up a vital win on the road. Guangzhou, meanwhile, misses a chance to gain ground and will rue their inability to maintain their early intensity for a full forty minutes.
Beijing's coach praised his team's resilience: "We showed our character in the second half. We adjusted, defended as a unit, and executed our plays." The Guangzhou manager was frustrated, stating, "We played 20 good minutes. Against a team like Beijing, that's not enough. Our consistency must improve."
The Ducks' starting lineup featured their dual-import combination alongside domestic stars, while Guangzhou countered with their own foreign talents leading the backcourt.
