Michael Beasley is one of the luckiest people on Earth.
Chance after chance and he still gets paid for lacklustre basketball. I don’t know how he does it.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Michael Beasley has decided to ditch the Memphis Grizzlies and is now off to China to play for the Shanghi Sharks. Who are owned by none other than Mr Yao Ming.
Beasley had come to the Grizzlies’ camp on a non-guaranteed deal and his chances of making the opening night roster were still uncertain. The opportunity to accept a lucrative one-year deal with Shanghai proved too difficult to pass on.
Once the CBA season ends in March, Beasley will be free to sign with an NBA team.
The Sharks are owned by Yao Ming, the former Houston Rockets star.
I can’t fathom how mediocre players get stacks of money to go to China. I should go there and get scouted!
