Chinese basketball prospect Zeng Fanbo was waived by the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, just days after the team concluded its NBA China Games in Macau.<\/p>\n
The 22-year-old recorded one steal and three fouls while not attempting any shots.<\/p>\n
Zeng\u2019s management team said the Harbin native would remain in the United States to continue his recovery from a serious back injury and thanked fans for their support and care along the way.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing able to stand on the court of the NBA pre-season game and wear an NBA jersey was an extremely valuable experience for Zeng,\u201d the statement read. \u201cHe was dealt a serious injury in his back and waist in late April, severely affecting his original off-season plans.<\/p>\n
\u201cZeng has put all his efforts into his dream. It takes courage to stand on the court again. I hope everyone will support and encourage him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chinese basketball prospect Zeng Fanbo was waived by the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, just days after the team…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4426,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[4573,4582,4567,4576,98,100,355,99,4572,827,4571,4574,4579,4581,4570,4049,4578,4577,4568,4580,21,9,24,63,4575,4569],"class_list":["post-4425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-2025-nba-china-games","tag-australia","tag-basketball","tag-beijing-ducks","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-nets","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-cba","tag-china","tag-chinese-basketball-association","tag-exhibit-10-contract","tag-g-league","tag-harbin","tag-jordi-fernandez","tag-long-island-nets","tag-macau","tag-mfon-udofia","tag-national-basketball-association","tag-national-basketball-league","tag-nba","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-phoenix-suns","tag-zeng-fanbo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4425"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4425\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4426"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
