I don't know how many people have heard about this story. Not many people in Memphis care about former Grizz Bonzi Wells and even fewer care about the Chinese Basketball Association. I doubt many people even knew Bonzi was playing in China. Even ...

As a petty Blazer fan it brought me great joy to know that the League (and Europe, apparently) finally appreciated the value of Bonzi.
