Delonte West still really wants to play in the NBA this season. But unfortunately, no teams have shown any real interest in him just yet. So according to multiple reports, West is set to take his talents to the Chinese Basketball Association in order to prove that he still belongs on the basketball court. He reportedly just signed a one-year deal with Fujian Xunxing and will play for the team during the upcoming CBA season.

The bad news is that, because he signed a deal with the Chinese team, he won't be able to play in the NBA this fall if any team does decide to give his agent a call. But the good news is that the CBA season only runs through February. So if he does well over in China, there's a pretty good chance that an NBA team might take a look at him when he comes back to the U.S. in the middle of the winter.

Good luck overseas, Delonte. Send us back some highlights!
