'''Fujian SBS Xunxing Sturgeons''' ([[Simplified Chinese character|Simplified Chinese]]: 福建SBS浔兴鲟) or '''Fujian Xunxing''' or '''Fujian SBS''' are a Chinese professional men's [[basketball]] team in the [[Chinese Basketball Association]], based in [[Jinjiang, Fujian|Jinjiang]], [[Quanzhou]], [[Fujian]]. The "SBS" reflects corporate sponsorship from the Jinjiang-based Fujian SBS Zipper Science and Technology Corporation.<ref name="SBS Zipper">{{cite web|title=SBS Zipper|url=http://www.sbszipper.com/gyxx/|access-date=22 April 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130424080329/http://www.sbszipper.com/gyxx/|archive-date=24 April 2013}}</ref> Unlike all the other teams in the CBA, the team originally had no English–friendly animal–type nickname. 

The Fujian Sturgeons made their debut in the 2004&ndash;2005 season, and finished in seventh and last place in the South Division, out of the playoffs. In 2005&ndash;2006, they tied for fifth, just one win away from making the [[playoffs]].
