Hello China, the new destination for LA's former big man that balled with Kobe

In the last few years, many NBA players haven't been able to find a spot in the league anymore and have decided to continue their Basketball career outside the USA.

This time, a one-time LA Lakers reserve power forward Ed Davis has found a new on-court opportunity overseas, making the "has to learn Chinese" meme come true.

Per Dario Skerletic of Sportando, the 6'9" big man out of the University of North Carolina has agreed to a new deal with the Xinjiang Flying Tigers of the Chinese Basketball Association.

Davis was selected with the 13th pick in the 2010 draft by the Toronto Raptors and spent most of his first three NBA seasons in the Great White North. He logged some time with the Memphis Grizzlies before his lone Lakers season, the club's ill-fated 2014-15 campaign.

Ed Davis played alongside Kobe Bryant

Playing alongside a declining Kobe Bryant on head coach Byron Scott's dismal 21-61 Lakers team in 79 contests (24 starts), Davis averaged 8.3 points on 60.1% field goal shooting, 7.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.2 blocks and 0.6 steals a night.
