1:51pm: Randolph's one-year deal with Foshan will be worth at least $1.5MM, according to Ben Golliver of Blazer's Edge.
10:07am: Prior to signing with the Celtics in the second half of the 2012/13 season, Shavlik Randolph played in China for the CBA's Foshan Lions. Having been waived this summer by Boston, Randolph is now headed back to China, according to Sportando contributor David Pick, who tweets that the big man will return to Foshan.
Randolph, 29, inked a pair of 10-day deals with the Celtics in 2012/13 before signing with the team for the remainder of the season. The former Duke Blue Devil only recorded 4.2 PPG and 4.4 RPG in 16 contests for Boston, but was significantly more productive overseas. Randolph appeared in 28 games for Foshan, averaging 32.0 PPG, 14.6 RPG, 1.4 APG, 1.7 steals, and 1.0 blocks in 36.5 minutes per contest while shooting 53.1% from the floor.
Because the CBA regular season ends in February, Randolph should have a chance to return stateside and catch on with an NBA team once he plays out the season in China.
