Beijing BRCBs Stephon Marbury dummy a ball past Korea LG Sakers Kim Sirae during Group A match of the Seri Mutiara Cup 2017 ... 12 Sept 2017 M. Azhar Arif/The Star
AT 40 years old, Stephon Marbury shocked everyone by announcing he’s looking to return to the NBA for one last season. Marbury, of Coney Island, New York, is a two-time NBA All-Star but hasn’t played in the NBA since 2009. Instead, he found his way to China where he gained cult-status by helping the Beijing Ducks to three Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) titles. The city erected a statue of him after he led them to their first title. It even built a museum to honour him. Starsport’s KNG ZHE NG GUAN caught up with Marbury, who is in town with his new team – the Beijing Fly Dragons – for the Seri Mutiara Cup.
