TPBL is expected to adjust the salary cap for foreign players next season. Taiwanese media advises Yunbao: signing Rose or Westbrook

June 27, Taiwan's new basketball league TPBL is expected to adjust the salary cap of foreign players this offseason. In the past few seasons, the Taiwan Beer Golf Team, which had signed two former NBA star centers, Howard and Cousins, was unable to sign top foreign players this season due to the salary cap of foreign players. However, Yunbao executives have revealed that the team has begun to actively contact active or retired NBA stars.

Taiwan Beer Cloud Leopard CEO Zhang Jianwei said in an interview: "As long as the salary conditions are in place and a future development stage is provided, it is possible to succeed. Our goal is not to 'average level' players. Now we are no longer shocked just because there are NBA foreign players coming to Taiwan. What we want is players who can truly drive combat power and affect victory or defeat." He also revealed that the team has taken the initiative to contact "NBA-level players with active or retired backgrounds", rather than waiting for consultation by passively.

As for the direction of foreign players' choice, Zhang Jianwei believes: "Our team plays fast and needs players with mobility and speed, so that they can be compatible with the existing lineup tactics."

Then, a Taiwanese media advised Yunbao's selection and said: "At present, two of the stars on the table that match fame, mobility and speed are highly concerned. One is Rose, who has started contacting this season, and the other is Westbrook, who just entered the free market last week."
