Stephon Marbury has taken a significant pay cut to play in the Chinese Basketball Association.

 

A source told Yahoo! Sports that the guard will make $25,000 a month playing overseas. Marbury earned a $22 million in the NBA last season.

 

Prior to signing with Shanxi Zhongyu, Marbury turned down several European offers and a deal with the Celtics.

 

"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," Shanxi executive Wang Xingjiang said.

According to the original article this team has probably the most famous players in the CBA at the moment. Not only were they the team that signed Bonzi Wells last year but also that Maurice Taylor had been the foreign player of this team before Marbury's arrival.

If Marbury doesn't drop 50 points in at least 1 game I'll be surprised.

 

P.S Also according to the original article, Stromile Swift is playing in the CBA as well.
