Report: Byron Mullens to play in Chinese Basketball Association
Howard Smith / USA Today Sports
The NBA may have seen the last of Byron Mullens.
A report from Sina.com cites that the 7-foot jumpshooting big man has inked a deal to play with the Shanxi Brave Dragons next season.
Mullens surprisingly turned down his player option with the Los Angeles Clippers earlier this summer to test the free-agency waters. In having done so, it looks like he's found himself a home in the Chinese league.
Last season, Mullens averaged 4.2 points and two rebounds per game while connecting on 37.1 percent of his three-point tries.
