Former Los Angeles Lakers guard Nick Young isn’t done with basketball just yet.

The veteran is signing a contract with the Zhejiang Lions in the Chinese Basketball Association.

Young, 35, hasn’t played in the NBA since the 2018-19 season. He last played for the Denver Nuggets.

The sharpshooter spent a handful of seasons with the Lakers. In fact, he had some of his best production in Los Angeles.

During the 2013-14 season, Young gathered 17.9 points and 2.6 rebounds per contest.

While Young has been vying for a job in the NBA, he will have to reinvigorate his portfolio overseas.
