Marbury has agreed to sign with the Shanxi team playing in the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). Shanxi owner Wang Xingjiang said: “Marbury's salary is not an astronomical figure because by coming here he also hopes to open up the Chinese market and sell his shoes.”
Xingjiang said the the signing of Marbury was “a reward to our fans” – the team is currently struggling in 12th-place in the 17-team CBA league.
