Stephon Marbury, Beijing Ducks part ways
Marbury was offered to coach the team
Stephon Marbury has been released by the Beijing Ducks.
The former NBA guard was offered to coach the team from Beijing but he turned down the proposal because his goal is to play again in CBA.
Per ESPN, Former two-time NBA All-Star Stephon Marbury has been released from the final year of his contract with the Beijing Ducks after winning three championships in six seasons. Marbury, 40, declined an opportunity to coach with Beijing and hopes to sign with another Chinese Basketball Association team. "We agreed that I would leave this season and the door is always open to coach. They had the option for me to play or coach and they wanted me to coach. It's understandable at my age, but my age doesn't dictate my game. This gives me strong desire to work hard and try my best to come back to help a team win a chip," Marbury told The Undefeated.
