BEIJING — Stephon Marbury’s agent says they are in talks with several clubs in China after the former NBA All-Star parted ways with the Beijing Ducks at the weekend.
Wang Meng told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Marbury “will definitely play one more year.”
Marbury helped the Ducks secure three China Basketball Association championship titles since he joined them in 2011 after a roller-coaster NBA career.
