Just when it seemed like life was getting better for Eric Bledsoe, who reportedly signed a deal with the CBA’s Shanghai Sharks, the player found himself in trouble, reportedly getting arrested on Wednesday due to domestic violence.
Bledsoe last played for the Los Angeles Clippers before getting out of the league. He found a new opportunity in China, and it’s unclear if that will stay on the table after the recent developments in his life.
A solid defender, Bledsoe also played for the Suns, Bucks, and Pelicans during his career and was linked with a move to the Los Angeles Lakers. Now his new adventure places him in China, but everything could change after this situation surfaced.
