On October 2nd, media figure @ZhaoTanzhang revealed that Weatherspoon, who played for Zhejiang Guangsha last season, will leave the Russian club by paying a breach of contract penalty. Weatherspoon is set to join the Qingdao men’s basketball team to compete in the new season of the CBA league.
The original post by ZhaoTanzhang reads as follows: According to Tanzhang’s understanding, Weatherspoon, who was previously abandoned by Zhejiang Guangsha in terms of priority renewal rights, will return to the CBA and is expected to join the Qingdao men’s basketball team.
