Will Bonzi Wells land on an NBA team after the trade deadline is over? Who could use his services? Well actually a severely depleted Memphis Grizzly team could easily use him. He'd be better than all their guards not named Mayo. He could also be help to the Clippers, and Thunder.

As far as playoff teams go, he'd probably fit in real well with the Suns or Knicks right now. Even Mavs.

Any takers???

Sports Illustrated cover curse strikes Bonzi Wells

It looks like the Sports Illustrated cover curse (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/features/cover/2002/jinx/main/)applies to the Chinese version as well. Former NBA player Bonzi Wells was released (http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2009-02/02/content_10749542.htm) by the CBA's Shanxi Zhongyu a couple of days ago, shortly after his mug graced the cover of SI China.
After playing 14 games and averaging 34.3 points, Wells went home to the United States for a visit. Team officials say he repeatedly delayed his return, and Wells and the team finally agreed to part ways.
According to Asia Basket (http://www.asia-basket.com/China/basketball.asp?NewsID=151609), he has been replaced by Tim Pickett, who played for Florida State before a short career in Europe.
