Von Wafer could return in NBA
The player has received interest from a couple of teams
Former NBA player Von Wafer has returned from a season in China and is receiving interest from a number of NBA teams, according to sources close to the situation.
Several teams that are looking to bolster their roster for a playoff run have considered signing the 27-year-old Wafer, who will be playoff eligible if signed before April 17.
Wafer played for the Xinjiang Flying Tigers, leading them to a fourth-place finish in the Chinese Basketball Association and averaging 26.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists on the season. Unlike other unrestricted free agents, Wafer is in shape and ready to contribute immediately since his season in China just concluded.
Wafer’s last NBA stint was with the Orlando Magic in 2011-12.
