Shanghai bounced back from last week's shock defeat to Aolong and beat Zhejiang 137-98 in the 20th round of CBA action on Wednesday, while Guangdong overwhelmed Shanxi 124-93.

It took Shanghai only three quarters to secure their 17th victory of the season. Four Shanghai players scored double-digit points. Jimmer Fredette finished with a team-high 31 points, six rebounds and five assists. Guerschon Yabusele added 30 points, four rebounds, four assists and three steals.

Willie Warren led Zhejiang with match-high 34, and Lorenzo Brown had 26.

Yi Jianlian had 31 points and 12 rebounds as Guangdong claimed their 15th straight victory of the season. Guangdong jumped to 32-19 ahead in the first quarter and never looked dangerous from then on.
