NBA rumors: Ex-Celtics forward Guerschon Yabusele to sign with Chinese team

Share

It didn't take long for Guerschon Yabusele to find a new team, but it's not in the NBA.

The former Boston Celtics forward has agreed to sign with Nanjing Tongxi of the Chinese Basketball Association, Sportando reported Friday.

The French forward was waived by the Boston Celtics in July, ending a disappointing three-year career in Boston after the C's selected him in the first round (No. 16 overall) of the 2016 NBA Draft. Jaylen Brown is the only one of the Celtics' three first-round draft picks from 2016 still on the roster today.

Playing in China is nothing new for Yabusele. He played for the Shanghai Sharks during the 2016-17 campaign.
