Chandler Wilson (203-F-87, college: De Paul) of the Zhejiang Guangsha Lions has been told by Lions Management that he can come back in the NBA as soon as the Lions clinched a playoff spot. The Lions are the 6 seed in the CBA playoffs which begin next Thursday. In addition to missing the playoffs, Chandler is also going to miss the all-star game as well.
The Lions management had put the onus on Chandler to make the decision whether he is going to stay with the Lions for the playoffs because they didnt want him in a poor mindset as the playoffs progressed. However; to be eligible to play in the NBA before the Lions season is over Chandler still needs the CBA to issue his FIBA letter of clearance. It isnt known yet whether the Chinese authorities will allow Chandler clearance to return to the NBA or make him wait until the Lions season is over. Even if the Chinese authorities refuse to issue his FIBA letter of clearance, Chandler will fly back to the United States within the next week.
