Foreign players policy

All teams except Bayi Rockets can have two foreign players, while the bottom 5 teams of last season have an extra right to sign an Asian player. In addition, due to the NBA 2011 Lockout, any international player that signs to any CBA team have to abide by their contracts signed. The rule of using players in each game is described in this chart:
