The Shenzhen New Century Leopards () or Shenzhen New Century or Shenzhen Leopards are a professional basketball team which plays in the South Division of the Chinese Basketball Association. New Century is the club's corporate sponsor and its mascot is a leopard. The team is based in Longgang District, Shenzhen, Guangdong, and plays its home games at the Shenzhen Universiade Sports Centre (). ==History== The club was founded in Dongguan, Guangdong, in 2003 and played its first 12 seasons in that city before moving to nearby Shenzhen in 2015. Success came early in their existence for the Leopards, as they were runners-up in the 2004 Chinese Basketball League (CBL) championship, and were "promoted" to the CBA for the 2005–2006 season. In its first season in the CBA in 2005–2006, Dongguan finished in seventh and last place in the South Division, and out of the playoffs. The team would soon battle its way to respectability, however, becoming somewhat regular participants in the CBA's postseason over the ensuing years. In July 2011, seven months before achieving worldwide fame in the NBA, point guard Jeremy Lin played for the Leopards during a three-game summer tournament, and was named MVP of the competition. On December 26, 2013, Leopards player Bobby Brown scored a franchise-record 74 points in a game against Sichuan Blue Whales.〔(Bobby Brown scores 74 points and the game winner in China! )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shenzhen Leopards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
